Oh yeah, I should have worded my post a bit more clearly there, in hindsight. As far as one's own characters are concerned, anything goes, really. I myself ended up changing up some of mine this way , mostly due to not really feeling a setting anymore, but not wanting to waste a perfectly good character, so to speak. Or overhauling a really old character you haven't written in years - that's some way to get the creative juices going.
