That's what I always used to say, I don't know why I've really shifted away from that mindset but there we are. I guess I found having to be a different race was more restricting, everybody expects a dwarf to be booze in one hand and axe in the other. Elves are always seen as roguish and off with the faeries and if you play anything other than those stereotypes with other less-fantasy-fluent people they tend to lose interest in your characters.
