As it stands right now everything can be looked at as just a matter of DMing. Giving the Tank good armor, seems like a natural fit to me when dishing things out. The bit about quickdraw, eh, I've considered it my self. The undead portion, well that does suck, but as a DM I'm made decisions myself that may screw one charater more than another or favored one more than the other. In some cases my wife was happy with me, in others she wasn't.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f631.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":eek:" title="Eek!    :eek:"  data-smilie="9"data-shortname=":eek:" /> Told me things were pretty balanced. Then one of the female players accused me of favoring her and giving her cool things and none to the others. I didn't see it, but there it was. I examined what I did and still didn't see it, so the player left the group in a huff.  :\  I personally think she was focusing to much on the things my wife got and not looking at what she had. She had "cool" items, but she under utilized them and complained that my wifes were better. (I utilized leveled weapons and my wife sank a lot of xp into her weapon. By contrast that player never did sink much into her weapon and then complained hers wasn't a good.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f615.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":confused:" title="Confused    :confused:"  data-smilie="5"data-shortname=":confused:" /> )What it tought me was that sometimes people will sometimes see a problem where none truely exists. Talk to the DM concerning your issues, in private. Maybe he just needs to nudge his wife into a more combat instensive build. It sounds like that's what she wants to be playing anyway. But also let him know that your SO is feeling a little jilted as well, and ask him to see what he can do. Modify the undead traits, or give her a personally designed shiney or something. Just so they both feel like he's paying attention to them and not "penalizing them".Once they're both feeling the love so to speak, things can move on. Of course if the DMW is still whining about things, and generally making  a pest of herself in that regard it may be time to move on. Some woman just can't handle another woman around. Especialy one that takes the light from them. Heck, I've seen woman that can't even have another woman as a friend without self destructing the realtionship because of that. Talk to the DM, it's the only way you'll sort things out.-Ashrum</blockquote>
