The root of the argument is basically what is being skirted, and that is: most things can be done, but to be done they would need to be done well and done "certain ways" and most would rather just toss out the concept and RPer both, rather than try to creep into it, testing it, and getting the good RP that comes from it. Â Bottom line is: you trust a person and you know them to be a good RPer, then trust they have you in mind, and not just themselves, in that way you can have good RP flowing, lots of development and you are both on the same page.
We know that WHM can be done, is it hard? Â Yes. Â Does it have to be done in a certain way? Â Yes. Â Should no one ever do it because it is too hard and requires too much thought? Â No. Â I fully think they should, and the ones that choose to, should know the limitations that come along with that, and be adept and content with playing those out. Â Same with any of the harder jobs, BLM included. Â Be a creative RPer, and work out a plot with a BLM soulstone in it, they did exist, there was more than one BLM during the War of Magi. Â The stone could be hidden in the most obvious place, could have been found, and the owner doesn't know what it is, could be set in the necklace/belt of your plot's characters. Â Bilbo found the ring of power in a cave, before that it was found in the bottom of a lake. Â Don't play yourself as the WoL, but take some inspiration in the subtlety that powerful objects can have, many of the greatest fiction writers of all time certainly did.
Either way, build some trust in your group, and with other RPers in the community, and most of them will not only have no problem, but also commend you for your ability. Â Don't come out of left field expecting full trust and "anything goes", and you will be set!
