Some ways to maybe curb some of the behavior:-- Whenever you make a descision she is unhappy with, call for a vote, and do it right away. The appearance of power to change things may help her to not feel cheated, and while this does somewhat compromise your role as MIGHTY DM MASTER, most of the time the group will agree with you. Allow anyone who takes issue with your rulings to do likewise...with the stipulation that once voted on, it is set in stone, and if it is ever raised again, the character will suddenly be afflicted with explosive space diarrhea and have to sit out the next day or so of the session. -- Use the "what you do, the enemies can also do" rule. Don't nessecarily disallow any of her tactics, but make sure that she knows that whatever she does to make it easier on her, the enemies can, too. No-save spells? Well, if she wants them to exist, I hope she likes rolling up new characters... Try not to hurt the entire party too much wth it, but don't be affraid to sucker-punch her.-- Maybe she's not entirely happy with her character. She should be allowed to play her character however she wants, and NO ONE likes it when ego takes control of them. Let her act as she will. That's not to say that to maintain verisimilitude there shouldn't be consequences, but don't forbid action -- just warn her about what will happen before she does it.</blockquote>
