[QUOTE="Rystil Arden, post: 2142554, member: 29014"] Something similar happened in a game in which I was a player, except they used Chaotic Neutral and the "I'm Chaotic" excuse to cover incredibly evil acts. It was a 6-person party, and I was a Neutral Good enchanter, there was a Paladin whose player was a bit barmy, and so he did nothing to help me, and then there were four evil characters disguised as Neutral. Campaign highlights included one time when the Bard sang Inspire Courage for the enemies, causing them to just barely hit the injured paladin and take him to -11 on the last round of combat. The Fighter, in retaliation, grabbed the Bard by the throat and ripped out his tongue, then sliced off his fingers, saying, "You'll never use your music for my enemies again." Then the Druid threatened to massacre an entire village of innocent folk and the entire party, and the Rogue decided to burn a caravan of food that we had taken from the bad guys and I wanted to give to the starving peasants. He refused to listen to reason, even after I roleplayed a conversation and rolled a token Diplomacy check ("I'm a PC, I can ignore whatever you roll") and then when I Charmed him, he said that it was [I]against his nature[/I] not to burn the food and called for an opposed Charisma check, which he won. Then I had to Dominate Person him to get him to stop... They also decided to become dealers in narcotics when they found some lying around in the enemy stronghold...needless to say, they didn't trust each other to distribute treasure, so they gave it all to me, and I realised that it would be an evil act to support their evil with treasure, so I gave them as little as possible and donated the rest of their shares to charity. and they never noticed. Wondering why I was even adventuring with them? Prophecy DM fiat. [/QUOTE]
