In fact, one of the things I latched onto was the implied greatness of PCs (and that NPCs might be formidable, but they weren't PC character classes). In the big campaign I ran, the PC classes were explicitly unique. Holy warriors might not have been unheard of, but there was only one Paladin. Religion was quite strong among the humans fleeing the undead Pharaoh, but there was only one Cleric.<br /><br />The players still had flexibility. The Warlock's culture of Tieflings weren't unfamiliar with making pacts, but no one had forged a bond quite like that. The Warforged Paladin wasn't just the only Paladin, he was the only Warforged to gain consciousness, and his path just might have lead him to be the god that awakened the rest of his race.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1678761812929125529.post-39360516414664016902011-02-02T14:58:22.751-05:002011-02-02T14:58:22.751-05:00It also makes it easier for elements to be removed...It also makes it easier for elements to be removed entirely or elements from later books to get plugged in with minimal fuss.
