[QUOTE="DarrenGMiller, post: 2634789, member: 23174"] I had a player who played a Human Ranger who hates ALL Wizards. He is okay with Sorcerers, but HATES Wizards. His opinion is that the study of dark tomes has opened them to evil influences and corrupted their souls. His first action the night he was introduced? Kill the two Wizards (one PC and one NPC) in the party (one was his former PC). It gets worse... He has loaded up with archery feats, yet he enters melee combat wielding a falchion at every opportunity. The player (yes, I said player, not character) does the "Falchion Dance" every time he kills with the weapon. He actually stands up and swings his hips/thrusts his pelvis around while crooning "Falchion Dance, Falchion Dance." He is NOT a small guy and he is not a kid. He is about 20 and had been a member of the group for a while when this started. It gets worse... The Ranger spoke in "ghetto speak" telling NPC's, "This is how I roll." He asked NPC's metagame questions like, "So, what level are you?" Mind you, the player KNEW better. It was not a misundersanding about the game. He was being immature to get laughs out of the other players, but mostly to get revenge on me for the death of a previous character (A Paladin of Heironeous, killed by a Priest of Orcus in a defiled temple to Cuthbert, whom the Paladin mocked at every opportunity... he also mocked Orcus openly at every opportunity - the players opinion was that Heironeous should have kept his faithful 1st level servant from being killed by the priest of such a pansy god as Orcus - he had the opportunity to get him raised, but thought it was "lame" to raise a dead PC). He had Continual Flame cast on his gauntlets to give him some "bling factor." It still gets worse... Whenever he entered a fight, he drew his falchion and yelled out menu items, such as "Ham and eggs with rye toast and bacon!" "Grilled turkey on swiss with lettuce and tomatoes!" These were some of his battle cries. He is no longer a member of my group. I actually stopped gaming for several months because of this player. DM [/QUOTE]
