What if you want to be an amythst dragon (like flash wing of skylanders giants) or a troll (like boomer of skylanders Spyro adventures) or a storm giant ( like lighting rod of both games)?
Then you would need a very experienced, brave, and willing DM to agree because that would be such a headache to run from a DM’s perspective. An adult amethyst dragon is a Huge CR 16 creature, a troll is only a Large CR 5 creature, and a cloud giant is a Huge CR 9 creature. Trying to keep that game balanced so that every player could feel that their character was ably to sufficiently contribute to the game would by difficult no matter what and either require the players be a very relaxed type of table, fudge things to such a degree that it would be obvious to everyone that the DM was “cheating,” or else take so much smoke and mirrors and a beautiful assistant in a sequence bathing suit to pull off without notice that just about every season would probably be exhausting to run.
