I'm going to withdraw my interest from this game because I find the restrictions on player choices for their character's race/class to be really off-putting. It's one thing to provide suggestions to players who are unfamiliar to the setting and ask for help, and one can certainly provide some guidance for what is appropriate for the tone you are trying to strike for this game, but to outright deny player choices in realizing their character concepts is not going to lead to a fun gaming experience.
I would call it "filtering", but if the term off-putting works for you, I'm happy to oblige.
I am planning to be the sole referee in the game, by the way. So, that position is already filled, by
me.
Thanks for your interest!
