Hello, I'm new to PbP I just ran across this post before heading off to work and I'll like to put myself into consideration. Currently I'm thinking of playing a Cleric, Druid, or Bard. I will edit my post by tomorrow sometime with the build that I decide on.

-edit- I will be going with a Half-elf Songhealer Bard, as I mentioned before I will post my official build by tomorrow,

Well I found the feat Lighten Weapon, but apperently its not good enough, since he wants it at 1st level

Lighten Weapon (Combat)
You can balance heavy weapons, making them easier to wield.

Prerequisite: Str 13, BAB +3.

Benefit: Choose one type of weapon. When using a weapon of that type you may reduce the effort required to wield it by one step but suffer a −2 penalty to hit with that weapon. This allows you to wield a weapon 1 size category larger as if it were your own size, use a two-handed weapon in one hand, or a one-handed as a light weapon.

Normal: Weapons 1 size category larger increase the effort required to wield them by one step: light becoming one-handed, one-handed becoming two-handed, and twohanded becoming un-wieldable. Two-handed weapons may not be used one-handed. Using a one-handed weapon in your off hand results in a −2 penalty to all of your attacks (in addition to other off-hand penalties that may apply).

Special: The effect of this feat does not stack with other feats that alter wielding effort or weapon size. You maytake this feat multiple times, each time choosing a different type of weapon.
Example: Rogar the human fighter takes Lighten Weapon and chooses greatsword. He can now use a Medium greatsword in one hand with a −2 penalty to hit, gaining 1 x Strength bonus to damage. He can also wield a Large greatsword in two hands with a −2 penalty to hit (In addition to normal penalties for wielding wrong sized weapon) and adding 1.5 x Strength bonus to damage.

Yes, there is that too. I am personally Afraid he wants to start dual-wielding Large Greataxes.

I am starting up a new campaign for a few of my close friends in a few weeks. Well one of my friends has his character all set and is really excited about playing him. That is until I told him that Monkey Grip (3.5 D&D feat from Complete Warrior) wasn't reprinted in Pathfinder RPG.

Also for those of you who don't know, Monkey Grip is a feat that allows you to use Two-Handed Weapons, a step larger than your character, but still at the usually -2 penalty to attack rolls. The prerequisites for the feat are: Str 13, and Base Attack Bonus +1.

So I am looking for some advice, should I just allow him his happiness and allow the feat? Even though another player stated that they themselves would be upset if I give him the feat, because he believes all he wants to do is power game, and there is no reason why he should HAVE to wield a Large Great Axe.
