[QUOTE="DiFier, post: 1335459, member: 2345"] could you ask him nicely to play his charachters less disruptivlly. Of course if he's as bad as he sounds that probablly will not work. When it doesn't tell him to go play grand theft auto. You might want to take some drastic measures. if the other PC's aren't killing him - threatening him - knocking him out and leaving him tied to a bed in an inn - casting spell on him to make him go away. you might want to give them XP penalties for not playing in charachter. there must be at least one other PC who has been thinking. "O.K. billy over there keeps stealing my stuff, hiding treasure that he find and keeping all for himself, and killing people who are trying to hire us. and attacking party members casue he feels like it. I'm getting a bad reputation. this sucks." then the Player thinks but I don't want to hurt his feelings so I wouldn't stop him. that is not acting in charachter. try running a game that has no alignments. He will feel less compelled to be a insane, poddle kicking, mugging, leaving grendes in random pedistrian's bags. just cause he's picked chaotic evil as his allignment. I haven't gamed with my roommate for almost 2 years because he was too disruptive. and even then it was a short 3 session campaign played over christmas break with a bunch of freinds that were in from out of town. I told them that they could make what ever kind of charachter they wanted but that they were going to be in a group trying to survive. a lone charachter will NOT survive and in fact the whole group might not survive. and they were not going to be making new charachters. I might try gaming with my roomate again. but again it will be a short campaign. probablly muntant's and masterminds. any large disruption in the ranks and the BBEG will exploit it. [/QUOTE]
