[QUOTE="aco175, post: 7468668, member: 27385"] My 12 year old son recently started playing with my normal group and that was his only exposure to style and roleplay. He seems to play more or less like the rest of us combined with being 12. It is fine, we both seem to have fun. We recently went to a convention where he was exposed to other people and their style of play. Immediately his next character was modeled after a few halfling barbarians he saw others playing and even named him kind of silly like the convention players had. It seemed to open his view on style of play and should make him a more rounded player. Nothing wrong with players who want to play certain ways and do not mind having their PC killed off for entertainment. We used to play with a player who would get bored with a concept and have the PC get killed off so he could try a new combo. Maybe exposure to something else is what the player needs to see how others play and then he can modify his style if he chooses. [/QUOTE]
