[QUOTE="Nullzone, post: 5405580, member: 97538"] It's good to be sensitive to players who feel slighted, but it's worth noting that as the DM you really shouldn't act on that kind of concern unless it actually manifests itself. Talk with the players as a whole and get them talking to eachother to find a working balance; they may find that they can work together really well and really play up some RP aspect with it. If it does happen that the other player feels slighted, the "peaceful" resolution here if the min/maxer won't budge is to work with the other player to come up with a different unique character that he can still have fun with and harmonize with the rest of the group, but this requires more effort; the "easy" solution is to ditch the min/maxer, but this will likely be volatile. Really, the guy is being juvenile and should be called on the carpet for it. You're all adults (or so I might assume; if not, well, no better time to learn some personal accountability), so talk to eachother like reasonable adults and come to an agreement about what can and can't happen around the table.
