It starts to go downhill as soon as those NPCs start to take the fun away from the players with things like- Taking command of the group and literally leading them into adventure- They single-handedly take out the boss mob with the players being spectators watching the mad skillz of the NPC- The only way to advance in the story is to consult them and play boot-licker to those NPCsIf you actually build them into the game world and let the behave as a part of it (not as THE part of it) you can have some fun moments with them. But its always a challange for the DM to not overplay them, else they could take the fun away from the players. Also the DM may not be protective over them. If they get killed, so be it.</blockquote>
