[QUOTE="Chaosmancer, post: 7925394, member: 6801228"] So, you are going to defend with what you consider homebrew and a story section? Okay, sure, I'll drink the kool-aid and take this trip. Dwarf Barbarians are allowed because the writer used a dwarf example in a story section, and since we all know that every single thing written in the book is an iron-clad rule, that counts. Great, wonderful. I assume Goliath Barbarians are still banned? That text doesn't mention them. Well, wait, should probably check Xanathars. Okay, nope, Goliaths aren't specifically mentioned by name there. Well, good luck redefining the word that people use. I'm sure I will cause no confusion what so ever if I go to another thread and talk about how every aspect of Eberron, Dark Sun, Forgotten Realms, Greyhawk, Planescape, ect is homebrew, because it changes the setting rules of DnD. Because, that is still not what people mean. And you know people don't mean it that way, because no one in any discussion I have ever had, has used it that way before tonight. But, sure, maybe I'll go to the WoTC Errata page and send a report that they mislabeled it, it is Homebrew materials, because they are changing the rules presented in the PHB [/QUOTE]
