Extraordinary PCs

Post by Castano »

I wanted to give players some tips on gettign your extraordinary PC approved:

the apps that have failed in the past fall into 3 broad categories:

(1) require one on one DMing because the race is KOS on the region of Faerun you intend to play it on.

(2) app shows little understanding of the character race

(3) we currently have too many of this type of PC (while 1&2 are fixable, if everyone applied for the same race at once the game world would suffer as tons of elistraen drow wander the surface)

Does that mean my Yuan-ti Favored Soul of Gruumsh on BG is denied?
pragmatic (adj.)
The opposite of idealistic is pragmatic, a word that describes a philosophy of "doing what works best."
From Greek pragma "deed," the word has historically described philosophers and politicians who were
concerned more with real-world application of ideas than with abstract notions. A pragmatic person
is sensible, grounded, and practical.

This might help as an example, it is from the "Guide to Faerun"

Nope it's about all the denials. I just wanted to post why things were being denied, so those wanting an extraordinary PC could tailor their concepts. We've posted this info before and I would bet it is in our player's guide....

Don't worry, I'll accept you no matter what
People talk of bestial cruelty, but that's a great injustice and insult to the beasts; a beast can never be so cruel as man, so artistically cruel.
