[QUOTE="GMforPowergamers, post: 7144731, member: 67338"] If 4 out of 5 players agree that what they are doing is OK, and the 5th says "Hey my character wouldn't do that" my default answer is "Than make a character that will and switch" but is sounds like you already are. I've seen this problem from both sides of the screen (DM and Player) and I've even been the player who had to reroll a new character. the truth is it sucks at every level. I hated the time my buddy drew up a cleric of Pelor and I was a Necromancer, and our other buddy was an Assasine, and the other 2 PCs were rather 'neutral' indeviduals.... I mean I wanted to use undead, and the DM had powerful necromancer items in the game I wanted to use...so Manny had to have his cleric leave and bring in his Psion. I hated even more the time I was running the game where a PC was playing what I thought was the picture perfect Paladin (something I have only seen 3 times in the last 20+ years) but when the Swordmage of the party went evil, and the Assassin was already the 'belkair' of the group My buddy Jon had to retire the character, he could not keep traviling with these people. The worst though was not even in D&D. It was a Deadlands game. It was bad...I mean trigger warning messed up stuff that doesn't belong in a game bad... That set of actions ended the game because we couldn't move past the fact that some in the group thought the actions fine and others were horrified by them...and one female character was the target of it...
