Things no DM wants to hear.

In my campaign worlds Kender do not exist because the Gods of all alignments and domains got together one day and mutually agreed that Kender were too ******** annoying to live. With the combined will of the entire divine pantheon all kender were smote from the multiverse as well as any historical document, or mortal memory. The final thing the gods did was smite kender from their own memories. Then they went back to their usual business. Kender do not exist. They might as well have never existed. Fin.

Oh, and the names "Elfstar" and "Blackleaf" are off limits because they sound like crappy names some dumb shits in a Chick Publications anti-D&D comic would use.

Um. Kender only exist in the Dragonlance setting... so... That was a waste of time.

They're called Halflings everywhere else. Lol.

The DM always has the right to say 'no' to any character concept anyway.

My friend just goes a step further, and when he denies a concept, he follows it up with a 'And here's why!', so that way the player can see he's not being a /total/ jerk about it. There's a plot-device there for just such an occasion, after all, that was thought out WELL in advance, and tailored to anticipate the people he normally plays with.

S'a lot more interesting then a just plain 'no', after all, and prevents any and all arguements about it. biggrin

Think more of an extra-annoying subrace of halfling. You know the kind of people that see a big red button attached to some sort of doomsday device with both obvious logic, common sense, and probobly a big sign saying "DO NOT TOUCH THE BUTTON" will press it anyway because they "just wanted to see what would happen?" The kind of people that keep inducing full-party-kills based on making the most obviously stupid and childish decisions possible? Imagine an entire race of people like that. That is kender.

So in no way shall they be permitted to exist in my campaign.

That's actually a rather exaggereated view of Kender in general, and sadly, one that a lot of gamers that have read Dragonlance have the tendency to have. To be fair, Kender characters CAN be annoying, but they can also be played fairly well to /not/ be all that bad, and actually be a good asset to an adventuring party, as well as providing a few smiles every now and then.

It's just rare to see a player actually do that. It's like seeing a person in a Vampire: The Masquerade game play a NON-eccentric Malkavian, or one that isn't /obviously/ crazy. People take it way too far, and far farther then it should be.

I had a problem with a kender player that used my outside of game knowledge in game pretty soon the Gm had to start talking to me in privatel Cause if the gm told me if something was magical all the sudden she would take interest in it blaming it that she was kender (I had a fake eye that functioned as a gem of true seeing or something wierd like that).

You mean like how some of the better V:tM players will have their Malks take the OCD derangement?

Aren't sterotypes beautiful? (Sarcasm btw.) I like when people actually play their Malks right. Actually, starting a V:tM campaign this Sunday, so I'll probably be able to add things to the list of stuff you don't want to hear.

Kender. They're a form of Halfling from the Dragonlance saga. They're pretty much cenile. They're Inquisitive, fearless, thieves. They know what's going on, but they're so childlike in their actions. The "Oh look! It's a Dragon! Let's go pet it!" mantra.

yeah, my gnome makes up for what he lacks in the wisdom department in pure common sense. "you guys can go fight the dragons.. Ill wait here and then sneak in halfway through to steal an egg.. "

oh that leads to a glorious addition to the topic of this thread

Me:"okay so the dragon is hatched right? I put it in a secret room underneath the city, and leave it enough food to grow big enough to escape! is that okay?"
DM: "um.. sure"
Me: "And now lets skeedadle!"
