I get frustrated at times when people agree to play a certain style game and then without telling to the DM or the rest of the players try and change it.
I was running a heroic game. I told the players ahead of time that I wanted heroic style characters. I said give me a reason why Bahmuet would pick you to be the vanguard in his fight against evil.
Everybody was okay with this and said they wanted to play it. I got a lawful good paladin, lawful good monk, neutral good ranger and a chaotic neutral beguiler.
I said no to the alignment and sat down and had a talk with the player what I wanted to see. He said he understood but come game days his character was always trying to do backstabbing things to the party. He delighted in putting the paladin in unpleasant situations. He would kill prisoners behind the party's back.
I tried talking to the player outside of the game. That didn't work we couldn't just kick him out because his wife played in the game and we played at their house.
Finally I just gave him enough robe and let him hang himself and his character was executed by the authorities. And after an execution in the world the body is completely destroyed so that it is very hard to bring them back. That is if you could find a cleric willing to break the law and face summary execution themselves for raising a a lawfully executed prisoner.
He sulked got mad quit the game for several weeks then came back and brought in a neutral wizard. He was not heroic but he was not as evil and disruptive as the beguiler.
