Friendship is Magic, and Magic is Heresy.
Not really, other than (at times) it gets increasingly difficult to reason out why the character would bother to help the party with their problems. You can meta-game anything of course, and I decide what the character does after all, but it is an interesting tendency I've noticed.1) Does this bother you?
Not every table is comfortable with characters being retired early (and that's fine), so sometimes that metagaming needs to happen. Not a big deal, I make the decisions. Sometimes those decisions involve create undead, infernal calling, or a planar binding/magic circle/summon greater demon medley.
