[QUOTE="ZuulMoG, post: 2570486, member: 32135"] I hate to break it to you, but other's opinions on your PC's actions DO matter. Just as a Paladin must obey a code of conduct, just as a monk must fit within a certain pattern of behavior, all divine spellcasters must listen to the voice of a higher authority. In the case of a druid, it is both nature and their diety. Leaving a slain animal to rot is a waste of nature's resources. Acting to prevent another from making use of a slain animal, to prevent that death from being a complete waste of life, is against the druidic code, not supportive of it. Not only would I not award XP's to your PC for her decidedly out-of-character actions, I'd levy a substantial penalty, and probably deny spell access and have her own animal companion either turn on her or abandon her, until some form of atonement was made. If you want to play a spellcaster with a pet that has no rules to follow, re-roll as a sorceror and summon a familiar. Druids do not seem to be your bag, baby. EDIT: Also, how did your party's entirely useless walking fireball wand hit upon the idea of not choosing Sleep as a 1st level spell? Your attack should have ended before it began. [/QUOTE]
