Well all players tend to surprise the DM but these guys have developped it into an art form...First a few important data:.The character group has pretty shady moral (six neutral with evil tendencies/evil PC, with only two neutral with good tendencies PC[both characters with int or wis below 10 btw])..Even though the groups have various alignement they are now working together quite well.Now the problem: the apprentice psychic-assasin of the group ends up in verbal conflict with a VERY high level fighter female. He then decide to murder this fighter (no not a psychopath, he guessed that she was loaded with cash/magic and that looked like the main reason to me...). He knew that it was a tough thing to do but the character didn't know how dangerous she was, just that she was a very good fighter (although other members of the group knew it but they weren't there at the time.)The problem is that by a miracle he managed to pull it off!  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f615.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":confused:" title="Confused    :confused:"  data-smilie="5"data-shortname=":confused:" /> (roll a nat 20 to hide that he using a psychic power, beat her spell resistance exactly by rolling a 19, she rolls a nat 1 on her save... Then latter he cdg her and she fail her save even though she had a +18 fort save and DR...).Of course he has no idea how big the barrel of worms he has opened is... The fighter having quite an important but secret role among a powerful organisation.Now MY problem is how to assign XP: He is L4, she was CR15!.He faced her alone so doesn't feel right to split the XP with the rest of the group..He benefited from some pretty unique circumstance, making it what I felt was a EL8-9 encounters..But that's still too many XP and would take him way past the rest of the group..On the other hand, he will soon need the extra levels to survive the real assasins sent after him.So my fellow DM, what should I do?</blockquote>
