I begin to wonder if any of my old characters would even pass through this review process.
In regards to the no intelligent pets. My first character, a Beldrobbaen noble, has a guardian spider, clearly an intelligent pet. By this criteria, my character is no longer valid.
I'm beginning to see us lose focus here. We're too concerned with rules and regulations and have lost our vision of what the FFRPG was originally about: having fun. I'd rather us not worry too much about what is common, but rather what is possible. Anything is possible.
So, there's my piece. I would write more, but I'm distracted.
