[QUOTE="(Psi)SeveredHead, post: 5778177, member: 1165"] In a home-brew ruleset game I played in for a few months, one PC was very short and would fly into a rage about that. (The character; the player was of average height.) In my first session, said character stole a mecha. She had most of the skills for it, but [b]not[/b] weapons. The mecha had guns (hard to use) and plasma flamethrowers (easy to use). She nonetheless intended to use the guns on enemies near our army. Eventually we convinced her to use the plasma. However, by that point, the enemy had been defeated, and fled into a building where our sniper was hiding out. He came within inches of being roasted to death, and probably would have been very upset about that if he hadn't lost the use of three body parts due to the counter-ambush/very messed up damage system. One time said character jumped on a table and started dancing, but a fellow PC made a comment about her height (not even a very bad one), and she skewered that PC in the "upper leg". My character was a doctor and many bad jokes were made about the "stiffness" of the affected area. Finally, the day I left the campaign. Our side had collected allies and we were going to attack the enemy. We had discovered a tactical AI which, while not taking sides, was giving us a "minimap" for both our troops and the enemy troops. The crazy PC took her mecha to a "parliamentary" meeting and left it outside. Someone inside insulted her for her height, and she stormed off toward that door. Fortunately, one of the NPCs wasn't entirely stupid, and picked her up and dropped her off at another door. Alas, that only delayed the inevitable. After the meeting, most of the allied representatives and soldiers they had brought went to the bar. My character was watching the AI's screen when all of a sudden our troops numbers fell drastically. The crazy PC had used her mecha's flamethrower on the bar, which was of course filled with kegs of alcohol. We lost our numerical superiority, our allies (who were justifiably enraged), our plan... that was my last session. But that didn't come near how nuts she was [/QUOTE]
