Monstrous PC Races?

If a player wants to try thier hand at some kind of character, who the heck am I to stand in thier way? Imagine how much poorer Blackmoor would be if Dave hadn't "let" players play and even invent new monster characters. Imagine him saying "No you can't play a frog loving, green skinned space alien, or a magically created super barbarian, or a vampire, or a cybernetic wizard, or a Jet black prietess of fire, etc."

I generally tend to like having some restrictions on my campaigns. However, they don't have to based on the DM's decsions only. I prefer having a general consensus about what the focus of the campaign should be.

On the other hand I do like Arneson's anything goes approach too.


Quote:Seriously though, what is an "LA adjustment"?

LA=Level Adjustment. If a race has an LA=+1, it means that a 1st level character of this race will only be balanced with the rest of the party if the rest are 2nd level characters.
