He states that he doesn't care about anybody because if he cared then the villian coudl use that against him, so he no longer cares, and he says this to his half-brother who is another PC. I have made very clear that there is a plague and that supplies and food are hard to come by, but he will sit there and say..Him: Wheat?ME: NO! No food to trade..there is nothing to trade.Him: I buy weapons, with a war coming everyone will need weapons.Me: Who are you going to buy them from, nobody is selling them. Everybody has fled the town except the military. Him: What about spices, a plague wouldn't hurt spices. Everyone: Please we need to get out of town fast before the invasion and we are trapped here. Him:I'm not leaving until I find something to trade in the southlands with. What about horses. Me: Horses won't find in the catacombs and the military needs them all.Everyone else: We leave himHim: I have the Magic Item that you need, besides you wouldn't leave me would you brother. Everyone: Okay we try to get him to hurry up, cause we can't leave him behind.Him: What about metal..iron bars and such. Me: THERE IS NOTHING TO TRADE IN THIS TOWN.Him: Well since everyone has left I'm going to start looting the building to see what was left behind, and maybe I can trade that in the southlands. He purposely makes his character not latch on to anyone or anything so it is impossible to try and make him do something based on emotion. He recently contracted the plague though and I thought that would make him help, but he says that since he is going to die he wants to go do all the things that he character wanted to do before he dies. I said then would you like to retire the character for another comapaign and bring in a new one, and he said no that he wants his brother to be him so he can teach him and show him what he wanted from life. So he wants to travel along with the group trying to convince them to do something else. HE is not a bad roleplayer, in fact he is quite good, but it is almost that he seems to enjoys trying to manipulate the game more than he likes trying to manipulate in the game.</blockquote>
