[QUOTE="dontpunkme, post: 1656501, member: 17938"] OK here's the score: Our party consists of 6 pcs. One pc died saving my old characters life (hp=-17) and comes back a session later with a new character, a centaur. My ranger (who in character doesn't like the group because of the heretic sorcorer worshiper of Ehlonna, who keeps starting forest fires and being sold out repeatedly by the druid and barbarian) with is the next character to die (hp=-12) and I get a Aasimar paladin. Last night the party barbarian (our dm's choice class, who happens to have the best weapon, armor, and a ring of protection+4) gets dropped to hp=-11. Upon finding out that the barbarian is technically dead the DM rules he's a -10 (which suddenly isn't dead in our dm's book). The DM awards him a fort save to stay alive at DC22 and the player rolls a 2 giving him a overwhelming failure, the dm gives him a reroll which of course he makes. The dm rules the barbarian is still alive. My question: is this bad DMing? I've voiced my opinion of the situation to the DM and he shot me down without even thinking. I'm considering leaving the group because I'm getting pretty fed up with favoritism from the DM. The DM insists that his decision making was perfectly fair and all rules are subject to DM discretion (insert jerking hand motion here). [/QUOTE]
