[QUOTE="dontpunkme, post: 1901983, member: 17938"] Have any of you guys and gals out there ever player in a campaign where the DM assigned characters to players? This can mean any number of things: 1) These following characters (elf fighter, dwarf barbarian, etc) must be chosen divide them amongst yourself 2) You're character died. Luckily, I have this "insert pre-made character here" all ready to go. Hope you enjoy you're "insert pre-made character here@" 3) You player A must be the wizard, you player B must be the halfling rogue, etc. 4) Etc. I've played in several groups like this. Problems that I've seen range from storylines that revolve too centrally around one character and thus player eventually realizes this and for spite tries to get himself killed despite DM intervention to players that just aren't happy with the character that was forced upon them, etc. I've also seen this go the way of great epic storylines that everyone really enjoys. What other problems/benefits have you guys seen with this? [/QUOTE]
