I'm presently playing in a campaign where everybody has created a new
class.  Obviously, this is not strict AD&D, but I think that after
years of playing this game, the classes get a little old, and something
new around livens things up a lot.  Our group contains a Catlord, a
Necromancer,a Beastsummoner, a shapeshifter, a Transmuter, a Timelord,
a Psi-shaper,and a Forestal.  Needless to say, things can get a bit
confusing, and balancing the classes is difficult, but much less of a
problem if you understand that you are there to have fun, not see who
can get the most power.  Iti s unfortunately a common problem with a lot
of campaigns I've seen that all characters are really interested in is
more power (though I must confess, playing a powermad megalomaniac can
be very entertaining). Anyway, as for these classes not being official,
my only answer is `so?'.  after all, the idea is to have fun, and if
gary gygax doesn't like me changing the rules, he should have written
them right in the first place. :-)

yeah, well, whatever
