Handle it both above the board and on the table.  Above the board, tell him hes beings unreasonable and a jerk.  This is a cooperative game, and if he doesnt want to help, or cooperate, then there are plenty of others who can fill his seat.On the table, the characters would probably ditch him.  Letting someone die (anyone can do a DC 10 Medicine check btw) is inexcusable, esp if he never tried.  As PC's I would never let him touch me again.  I would also in game say that he is not pulling his weight, and cut his share of loot to 10%, instead of whatever split it is now.  If necessary pool the split and hire an npc cleric.He can either work as a team, with the team, or be the loner he wants to be, alone.As the DM, majority rules and common sense rules.  I usually try not to side with my players right away and let them work things out, but if i sense some real frustrations or get approached by multiple PCs I will implement some heavy handed solutions.  Perhaps the rogue skirting around gets ambushed by an unseen monster.  Now HE needs to be saved... if the PCs come save him, it might sink it. If they dont, it might sink in more.  Ive had PCs stand by and watch these horrible characters get mauled, kill the beast, and loot the fresh corpse.  It usually works for that player.</blockquote>
