Things just don't seem to add up to me, which makes me wonder if you're making this stuff up. But if not, then I apologize for being wrong. I'll try to give some advice anyway.If this player only has a few gaming sessions worth of experience, how has he already made "the most ridiculous characters" (as in more than just one)? Is he really burning through that many characters?If that's for real, then that could be a problem right there. He needs to stick to a single character and then he might appreciate the character more and be less annoying with it.What's wrong with that? It could provide for some pretty fun roleplaying for the rest of the group. If there's only a few undead encounters every so often, then who cares. But if undead is a frequent enemy, then yeah, he should probably "get cured" of this phobia or play a different character so it's not being an ongoing disruption for the party. If I hire a guy to kill rats, and he's afraid of rats and runs from them, I don't need him around. Same with this PC. The party member will see him as a useless crutch.Sounds like roleplaying a "Tiefling" to me. What's wrong with that? Rather than complain out of game, why don't the characters deal with the jerk in game? I've known lots of people in real life that were real jerks. And when they are being a jerk, I do something about it. Why can't the PCs be doing the same thing? Join in with the roleplaying, it could be fun. Maybe your roleplaying reaction will show the Tiefling that he's being a jerk. The Tiefling might stop acting like that towards his allies in hopes that he doesn't get kicked out of the group (I'm talking about the character, not the player). So why didn't the Barbarian mop the floor with her? Sounds kind of odd that a barbarian is going to back down from a fight; especially from a sorceress. I don't like party conflict either, but when I'm roleplaying my characters, I'm roleplaying the same towards PCs as I would the NPCs. If you keep the problems in-game, then you might not need to complain about it out of game.So why are you guys not roleplaying this stuff out to settle these disputes like you did before? You don't know what the player will do until you've challenged him. And if all he does is keep making PCs that cause inter party conflict, then just tell the player to knock it off cause it's getting old, or kick him out of the group.  If he's a good friend, he'll just knock it off and you won't have to kick him out of the group. If he's not a good friend and won't stop it, then it's good to know and he should be kicked out. There is absolutely no reason a player should cause other players grief during the game. I have no patience for this sort of thing because I'll dealt with way too many problem players that ruin my fun & the groups fun just because their selfish players. Trust me, the game is so much better when you have a group of nothing but good players. Even only having 3 players is better than having 3 good players and 1 jerk. And sooner or later, you guys can find a new player to take the 4th spot if you really needed to.</blockquote>
