Baldur's Gate : The Sword Coast Chronicles : NWN2 Persistent World

I would like to hear the thoughts of them being able to choose Underdark or Surface, as this is something I care about, and the things you'll see, here is an opportunity to make comment on an aspect of it.

I humbly request you do not bicker. Please field post as "Yes, No, Maybe" or however works, and give a summary of your reasoning, fears included, no judgment here, be as absolutely over the top as you want.

Once a vote count is deemed over, this thread will be locked, whilst a PM to the DM Team will be sent, during which I will make a second thread, for a pure discussion.

I like to keep things easy to read and easy to manage, I'm sorry if this doesn't work for you, I understand it seems Gatekeepery, moderative and is policing, but this is important to me & future other Imaskari lovers, Candlekeep, and any other Mage related Guild or place - Such as Ulcaster's, is where they should be on this Server.

There's next to nothing for an Imaskari to go and do in the Underdark, namely because it's super underdeveloped, but additionally, they're considered near-Human, and In-Character PoV is that people shouldn't know what they are - And we know what happens to Humans who show up in the Underdark... Even Half-Drow.

Spitball time - Things for UD Imaskari to do: Visit Mage Guild, Illithid Hive, Netherese Ruins, Ograhn Ruins, Kro's Labryrinth, Frosty Lake and so on...
All relatively high level areas, dangerous and something you've got to work for, just to basically solo adventure. An Imaskari and a Drow are going to travel together and one of them not wind up dead? It'd be done entirely OOCly and possibly even with issues, dependant on player. Myself, if my Imaskari dies, great, roll a new character and try again. This isn't the same as everyone, losing progress and restarting hurts for some people.

Nobody should have to endure jumping through hoops of fire, just to enjoy what they love.

I'd like my initial request to be treated with respect, please and thank you!

Also, since I know Imaskari has been hard debated about "what the hell does it look like?", I shall post this for you:

Additionally, for your viewing pleasure to give an informed opinion;

...and a bold few venture forth into the deepest layers of the Underdark.

Occasional humans roam, whether members of the Arcane Brotherhood, Red Wizards of Thay, Halruuan merchant mages, or free-willed liches. But most visiting wizards are Underdark dwellers, including savant aboleth, beholder mages and elder orbs, drow wizards from other cities, derro savants, illithiliches, sharn sorcerers, svirfneblin illusionists and artificers, even the rare phaerimm. Spellcasters from other environments, including morkoth mages and chromatic wyrms, come here too.
