[QUOTE="abirdcall, post: 7925111, member: 6748898"] People keep saying that they can define something as 'fluff' and then therefore it is not a rule. Firstly, how do we define something as fluff in the first place? Where in the rules does it say how we determine that? Can I play a human with the elf mechanics? Just throw out all that fluff and say my character is actually just a human in the narrative. What is rules and what is fluff? I've seen lots of people on the internet argue that a 'Druid won't wear metal armour' is fluff. Is it? How do we determine if something is actually a rule or not? I brought up an example of playing a Jedi and people lost it. Well is it against the rules to play a Jedi? If it is against the rules, then there are rules. If there are no rules then it is perfectly fine for a player to come to a table with a character choosing the Elf race, Rogue class, and Guild Artisan background but the character is actually a human Jedi from the Star Wars universe. There are either rules that forbid that or there aren't. [/QUOTE]
