After the original thread ws locked i wanted to have my say, so instead i PMed WW with my thoughts. Here is his reply.

People don't always do a good job of roleplaying various races, classes, or alignments, but you don't see them requiring a bio in advance for all of those. It's just not logical, nor courteous, to treat these particular classes/races differently, especially when every class/race/alignment should be equally scrutinized.dob85y wrote:Hey, i read through the reciently locked post about the PT race application.
I like your idea about the background, before 3rd level, in fact i think it should apply to ALL characters.
Yep, she wasn't evil... although she may very well have become evil eventually, if everyone was going to be treating her the way those two did. Hell, she was bleeding to death, hobbling towards the gate, and the pc near the gate pulled out a crossbow and pointed it at her, pretty much saying, "bleed to death somewhere else."I never met your Air Gensai, but know that i think you were treated harshly and over the top ... and would have certianly pleaded her case to the HI herichary after getting to know her. (thats assuming she wasnt evil of course)
And they were both not 'evil' pcs, so they were playing very much out of character, despite any arguments they may try to pose to the contrary.
yeppers. in fact, there are genasi npcs walking about in Silverymoon, and i've seen 'both' those other pcs in silverymoon plenty of times before.It is a fantasy world where such creatures while not every day, are not like an extra terrestrial knocking on your door in RL.
As to my input, i can only pose it and hope they listen. In most cases they don't... at least not until it becomes "their" idea...
Anyway, later dob
