[QUOTE="Ashrum the Black, post: 961579, member: 1585"] I agree, but since her wonderful gaming opputunity that she left for was an epic campaign I think it's what she enjoys. That, and the fact that it was an evil campaign which I refuse to run. There are somethings that I'm uncomfortable with, evil PC's are one of them. I made that very clear right form the start with the whole group. As for the comment on how the rest of the group may be min-maxing and rolling dice instead of acting, to a point you may be right. But only to a point. Yes the group may lean more torwards the "hey, let's go kill the dragon" types, than the "let's go have high tea with the King" types. But when the Emperor walks in they bow and scap with the best of them. :rolleyes: When his head flunky makes thinly vieled threats to them, they swallow their pride and take it while making threats back. Sometimes not so sublty but hey, I'm the DM, I get more time to think up the perfect threat. :D I guess what I'm saying is, that the roleplaying is less than a typical storyteller game, but more than a "you walk into a 10x10 room" game. And none of those games are incorrect in terms of roleplaying though. As long as people are having fun then you're "doing it right". She's obviously not having fun, so it may be time for her to move on. I just wish she had done it without having to slam the group and myself on the way out the door. Which is the basis of this whole post I guess. Once again I thank everybody for thier wonderful advice and the insightful posts. They really are helping me to order my thoughts so I can get a handle on this one. [/QUOTE]
