The oldest boy is having a real problem understanding that it is a living world he is interacting with and like your group has a tendency to want to shoot first. I believe this is because he is used to playing video games where the goal is usually to kill everything in sight. He easily sways the younger boy to follow him in this method of play. My two girls are just the opposite...eagerly looking at interaction as the first move in any situation. The boys and girls went separate ways in the Cragmaw hideout...and almost had a TPK before figuring out their mistake. Once they arrived in Phandalin they split up again. The girls did some real role playing while the boys suffered from gold fever and went around selling off everything they had brought back with no intention of sharing with the girls. At the end of the session I awarded the girls with slightly more EP's which had the boys crying foul! I clearly informed them that the girls were being rewarded for good role play and actually advancing the groups knowledge in the right direction. The boys whined but I think they got the message.</p></blockquote><p></p>
