[QUOTE="demiurge1138, post: 1876751, member: 7451"] One of the only things more annoying than when a DM has an uber-NPC is when he has an uber-PC. You know the type; where the DM grants his favored player (often a really good friend or, in extreme cases, a significant other) with all the good treasure, more experience and the like. The player in this case was the least paladin-like paladin I've ever seen. His modus operandi was to kill anything that wasn't one of the races in the PHB, no matter what. He was crude, violent, and obnoxious, yet got all the best treasure, more role-playing experience, and eventually possession of a Plot-Device Artifact. What's worse is that through this whole escapade, he was always LG by DM fiat, so my character, in opposing his reign of terror, became evil just for opposing him. I quit in disgust after my cunning plan to kill him and use his armor to escape (note: even in this PvP, I got DM permission to do it; he just didn't tell me he'd make my action worthless) just got him ressurected by the Plot-Device Artifact. Demiurge out. [/QUOTE]
