[QUOTE="doctorbadwolf, post: 8260387, member: 6704184"] Yeah I honestly don’t think “cater to my bigotry” is a valid use of safety tools. If someone is made uncomfortable by The Gays, then they can either get over it, or get out. Yeah for me, I cannot abide mind control at all. Forcing me to attack my friends (my group never plays mercenary murderhobos, the other PCs are my PCs friends, family, etc) is akin to sexual assault, from the POV of the character. I cannot even take seriously the notion that someone who uses those powers can be a good guy, but I can ignore that if it’s a casual game. So, it existing in the world as an evil thing is fine, I’m here to stab evil. Using it on my character is going to be traumatic for me and leave me severely agitated. So my allies using lesser mind control like calm emotions, command, illusion spells that mimic mind control by making you see things as they are not, I’m okay with, though my PC may criticize them for it, but using dominate person on my PC is 100% off the table. Yours. You’re the DM. Your player is telling you they aren’t okay with their basic agency as a player being removed, so don’t do it. It’s that simple. [/QUOTE]
