They're the ones who chose to, apparantly from character creation, create a big plot just to mess with your character. You said yourself that you blame anything another player does to you on the DM, and that's... what's a good word... hooey. If a player attacks another player's character, it's not the DMs doing, it's the player's.Suppose the DM doesn't allow it, he has an unhappy player. If he does allow it, he has an unhappy player. In your DM's case, he had four players to consider, and three of them wanted exactly what happened to happen. Your problem should be with them, and I'm going to guess that you're better friends with them than with the DM or that for whatever reason you don't want to tell them they've upset you. It is easier just to say "Well, he's a bad dm and a poor typist," but there are deeper things at work here.I am starting to believe that problem is player/player conflicts. If your only problem is that you can't see your character adventuring with them, then make a new character. If you are, as I suspect, feeling victimized by the other players and transferring blame to the DM, then you should probably speak to them about it and not play with them anymore. To be even more brutally honest, that might have been the other players' intent to begin with.</blockquote>
