Sword forms are supernatural if they teach you something that isn't mundane. Like certain Level Up combat maneuvers. Its not magic like a wizard, but it isn't mundane. There is a third category, and "supernatural" is my preferred term.
i mean, by earth standards (which is what i was referring to when i said "mortal being"), they really aren't already. i would not consider someone who could survive a fall from orbit and walk it off every single time or who could wrestle a dragon to be a "mortal being".
Golems and fairies are always supernatural.
They have super-strength, I conceded this. Part of what makes them not human.
It implies that there are characters in the setting that have the ability (through "leveling", however that is narratively justified) to transcend mortality. PCs are just selected from that pool of characters.
Yeah. I don't like 5e rogues in large part because they break the rules of physics without explanation. Those abilities do exist, however, I concede.
I will concede hit points don't make sense forever if people will please come up with any other evidence to support their rhetorical positions.
Which is why high-level martials should be labeled as explicitly supernatural.
My question though, was a completely non-hostile, what do you do then? You've said you don't like such abilities, so how do you explain them? There's nothing wrong with having a preference for a world that is, I think you've said before "like the real world unless specified". My experience has been that D&D is full of waaaay too many exceptions to accept unless I presume that it's actually the other way around, ie, "D&D is complete fantasy unless specified", but I am curious how you square the circle.
