>Guy talks to me about how he wants to play a monk in 5e

Tl;dr weeaboo in my group, what do?
>>53778692
Say it doesn't fit the setting, obviously. If you played modern TBZ it could fit, I guess. But you're not playing modern TBZ, you're playing fantasy D&D.
Tell him to pick Warforged Sun Soul Monk, after all Kamen Riders started as cyborgs
>>53778692
Either lay down the law or learn to love the quirks of your players. He's doing the right thing by running it by you first instead of just moving ahead without your blessing; the least you owe them is an answer one way or another.
That or run with a different group.Ex-Aid may be shit, but I'll be good goddamned if I excuse your ass-holeish-ness by not replying.
>>53778756
Wtf is a Kamen Rider..?
>>53778836
Japanese version of our cape comics. Basically a LG hero with a transformation and a bike who goes there beating the enemies of humanity and teaching kids values, they usually have a tragic ending though (most of the time end becoming the mosters they fight though they still remain human on the inside).
>>53778869
>Lawful Good
Ugh.
>>53778877
Whats your problem with the best alignment ever?
>>53778892
It's immature. Children cling to black and white morality. Mature adults, on the other hand, realize that the world is painted in shades of grey. I'm sure that you'll learn that once you leave your mother's basement.
>>53778903
>He has no idea how LG works
Also, nice bait
Guys, everybody out, this is a bait thread
>>53778869
Sounds gay, lol. Def. not going to let him play it now.
>>53778903
>I am too lazy and weak to keep striving to be a good person
I understand you anon, heck, I'm not so different myself. Don't think for a second you've got the world figured out though, your philosophy is that of a child. Or if you wish to call LG a child's philosophy, then that of a teenager.
>>53778903
Gives kids a role model to look up to. Someone who can at least point them in the right direction morally.
Hell, I like Kamen Rider and I find LG refreshing as fuck. Just because the world ain't black and white doesn't mean we want those shades of gray.
>>53778903
>Le shades of gray meme
Shitty way of thinking for cowards who don't want to take sides
>>53778903
Come back when you grow into stage 3. You'll get there some day.
>>53778951
So you admit that you're too much of a coward to face reality? Then I guess LG is the alignment for you. Keep hiding in your cartoons, kid.
>>53778937
You're only weak if you refuse to face reality. I guarantee that you've never felt a day of true hardship in your life. If you had, you'd see things MY way.
>>53778987
>Am right because of deeply personal anecdotal evidence
>You wrong despite deeply personal anecdotal evidence
It's like you're a white kid who got dropped off in downtown Houston and can't stand to see other kids playing in the hood, so you go around puncturing footballs because the world is dark and grim.
You still are replying in a bait thread
>>53778987
You see justification for questionable behavior.
I see a monster who refuses to accept that they're a monster and wonders why other people don't act like one, too.
>>53778987
ok I'll bite
>I guarantee that you've never felt a day of true hardship in your life. If you had, you'd see things MY way.
assuming things about the person you are talking to and thinking that your way is the only way is sing of immaturity anon
someone how truly face reality know there are innumerous reactions for an event and the there are innumerous truths
>>53778987
I'm a firefighter
>>53779076
Was about to post this before I saw it had already been done.Sage and move on. Don't bite.
>>53778692
What is the setting of your 5e game?
>>53779111
I'm Batman
>>53779212
If you play in anything other than Medieval Europe, with the appropriate name changes of course, you're trying way too hard to be a special snowflake.
Forgotten Realms is acceptable at a stretch, but I'll be judging you for it.
>>53779391
A game in fantasy Americas could be dope though.
>>53778692
Monk is based off of chinashit to begin with.
Wanting to turn into animals like Sun Wokong isn't unfitting, seeing as he's supermonk.
>>53779349
I'm Spartacus.
yeah, >>53780772 is Spartacus
>>53779391
Why, Mr Baitman?
>>53778903
>lawful good
>black and white
Someday you'll make it out of the basement kid
>>53778987
Worst kind of evil right here. Self-righteous and preaching that it's right. Smite on sight.
>>53778892
Because you could be playing a game with no alignments
>>53778903
Well crafted bait.
>>53778936
>that feeling when you literally have the perfect reaction image.
