One of the problems is campaign-specific -- for Barsoom this class' abilities at high level are pretty outrageous. So I wanted to make sure I and my player were in alignment as to where this character was going.My philosophy is to always have the world react to however the PCs behave, regardless of what the players may think about their characters. That is, my player thinks he's playing a revenge-obsessed guy, but in fact he's playing a team supporter, cautious, not really obsessed by much of anything sort of guy -- and so THAT's how NPCs react to him. This is the second discussion I've had with him about the direction his character is taking -- and to be clear, I'm not trying to "force" him in any particular direction, I'm just trying to get he and I together on which direction.The GW prestige class was specifically allowed to this player because of his revenge backstory. That was a conversation we had long ago when he first asked if he could take the class -- we agreed that given his revenge obsession, some of this stuff would be cool to bring into play.So my feeling is that if he wants the cool toys, he needs to continue down the story path that initially granted them. If he doesn't want to, that's TOTALLY fine, but he in that case will be getting DIFFERENT cool toys.</blockquote>
