Message: <blockquote data-quote="omnimpotent" data-source="post: 911042" data-attributes="member: 9162">I subcontracted my worst rat-bastardy to a player.We were playing Beyond the Supernatural victim-characters (the D&D equivalent of commoners) who were supposed to be loosely based on the players.The action started with an ever-so cliched ouija board session, which left the characters with the unpleasant suspicion that they had called up that which they could not put down, but no proof.What they had called was a possessing entity.  The next time two characters went somewhere quiet, we went into the next room and the player who I felt was quicker on the uptake got a card with his new stats and abilities on it, with a quick explanation.  He messily slaughtered his chum, I swore them all to secrecy, and we went back into the room.My pet PC then managed to get each of the other PC's alone and butcher them, all the while without any of the survivors catching on, and with the players of the deceased nearly exploding as they sat in on the rest of the session.  The last PC's final action was to give my pet PC their shotgun "to hold for a minute" as he barricaded the two of them in a small room.I lost a lot of player trust, running that session, but in return, I don't trust players anymore, either.This will lose me some rat-bastard points, but the game was a one shot.  I couldn't bring myself to do this to established PCs.</blockquote>
