[QUOTE="Blue, post: 7113352, member: 20564"] You know, normally I'd agree with this, but I think I found my limit. Playing the PCs characters as NPCs without their knowledge or consent, and then expecting those changes (such as the loss of items) to "stick" is outside what I would allow a DM to do. Now, killing the vital NPC is a seriously poor move that I would talk to him about, but that's within the DM's purview. And if I let him run my character if I was absent and something happened I'd go along with it. But that's only half. As a side note, a GM for a Champion's game that's been going on for decades that I haven't played in for years occasionally asks me about using my old characters in a plot. I've always said yes, even when it's bad for them. But it's the point that he recognizes that out of all the world that is his, the characters are mine. When we play an RPG we tacitly agree to changes happening, but that doesn't translate to changes happening outside of my play without my knowledge or consent. [/QUOTE]
