I'm seconding the anon above me, but I want to add my own point about why I think it's a little better to have the mods choose it. Take Eachdraich where you could choose between two things your character could be and the only times the mods stepped in is if you choose the exact opposite of your character. At least when they first opened one of the choices had substantially characters in it than the other choice. To be honest, I worry about vampires or werewolves (or anyone but I think those might be the most desired) getting the most if people have the final say out of two and it's a choice between one of those two and another creature.

DA, but I'm worried about the exact opposite. I'm worried that even with my opt-outs (which are mostly 4 things with traits I'm just not interested in playing), I'll end up with something a little less exciting like Vampire and Werewolf instead of something extreme.
