They would of course get insanity points, have to make a discipline check and spells like suggestion and domination would no longer automatically prevent them self-harming, but sure, they could do it. They would get disadvantage on most social checks in polite society, oh, and not most likely not have the desired effect either. Though it may well do so if people think he is psychotic.Then there is the cleric. They can explain to their god why they are enabling somebody to self-harm and why they think that is a good use of divine power. It could be an interesting explanation to give in the heat of battle when they next want a heal spell to work.As for the rest of the party, they might find dinner invitations a little scarcer once it is known that they are hanging out with the guy that ripped open his own face with a jagged saw and put ash and fat in it to make it scar, just to look scary.</blockquote>
