[QUOTE="sniffles, post: 3057462, member: 30035"] I voted 7. I try to do what the character would do as often as possible, but if the character's behavior as I imagine it would interfere with another player's enjoyment of the game in a significant way, I usually put the game before the character. For example, if my character is a thief but I know another player would be really upset by my character stealing from their character, I won't do it. I usually won't have my character choose a course of action that would obviously get the entire party into serious danger, if I know that danger might otherwise have been avoided. I won't have my character choose a course of action that will cause my character to be separated from the party for an extended period of time if I think that will create a hardship for the GM. But each situation has to be evaulated based on what players are in the group and what the tone of the campaign is. [/QUOTE]
