[QUOTE="Maldin, post: 3649289, member: 27170"] When I started grad school at a new university, I joined a group, DMed by a fellow grad, already in progress. My character was basically an arcane archer (although this was 1E, back before anything like that ever became common... the 2E rule books hadn't even been released yet). The DM's wife was playing a barbarian, and she took the whole "mistrust magic" thing way too seriously. Nevermind that there was a wizard already in the party. Or that it was just a game we were supposed to have fun in. She decided that her character wouldn't like my character, so an hour after my new player joined the group, she hauled off and killed him... while the rest of the party looked on. I was stunned. That particularly game didn't really proceed much farther then that. What the DM's wife wanted, the DM's wife got. I really wasn't interested in playing in that sort of game. We eventually started two other games, one I DM'd, another was DM'd by the other player in the group. Neither of those games went too far either, mainly because we all graduated and moved away. She rarely played in those. The husband and wife team were two of the most stubborn people I've known. A few years later they got divorced.
