[QUOTE="Kae'Yoss, post: 385135, member: 4134"] You will have problems even to stay neutral if you kill innocent beings, only to gain power. You wanted to tell that you weren't new to the game. OK. If a guy who just started to play RPG has some Diablo notions, it's OK, since he must be made known to the way RPG works. If you still want to pull such tricks after tens of years of gaming, you simply haven't learned. It's no insult, it's reality. And if you just do that to find loopholes, state it at once. People could imply that you said it only because they flamed you for it (my brother does that all the time). I fail to see the potential of buying xp with gp via senseless methods. I'm _very_ happy that I don't have to play in that party. I like to be a power game from time to time, sometimes even bordering to munchkinism, but gp for xp is even beyond me. Fight fire with fire is what I say. And someone who suggests buying animals to kill them in order to gain will better _never_ use the word silly. It's widely-used method of cutting outrageous players down to size to confront them with something strong when they think they face something weak. It will teach them that they can use metagame tactics - but the DM can as well, and he can always go one step beyond... There are universal truths (or whatever you call them): Killing helpless (or near-helpless) creatures just to gain personal power is always evil (it might be OK in a society, but that society will certainly be evil) He has no problem with you killing horses to gain XP? OMG! A meta-game encouraging DM. On second thought, I do want to play in your campaign. My character will carry a bucket of worms with him, and will have whirlwind attack and great cleave.....
