[QUOTE="Tsyr, post: 414182, member: 354"] Surgical, try to remember that this is a roleplaying game. Not a metagame tacticle simulation, at least not as I see it. Things shouldn't happen simply because its the most expedeient way to do something. Put yourself in the possition of the bard and the group. Bard gets a magical ring early on. Gets rather attached to it. A wizard joins the group much later and simply starts demanding the player part with HIS ring. [I](Might I ask, quickly, HOW the Wizard knew the bard had said ring? They don't exactly have a neon sign proclaiming Ring of Bobslaying or something on them, to my knowledge)[/I] How is it the GROUPS place to give up the BARDS personal possession? The rest of the group isn't involved with this, really. It's not their ring to give or take. It's the bards. And why should the bard part with his own property that has served him for XX levels? To an arogant upstart wizard who demands it for no cost like he has some god given right, none the less? I'd smack the wizard upside the head with the flat of my sword and tell him to go jump in front of a charging tarrasque, myself. How would you like it if a co-worker that got hired at work just started DEMANDING the corner office you worked for 10 years to get moved to? Should the rest of the office just go in and move your stuff back into a cubical and put the arrogant upstart's stuff in the office, to save on "internal strife"? I would pray you wouldn't say yes.
