[QUOTE="Inconsequenti-AL, post: 2054482, member: 6584"] Rather than mucking up a game session... sounds like you see him outside of the RPG environment, so why not have this conversation elsewhere? Don't envy you this situation. Not a lot of fun. If you still want him to game, you could give him an 'occasional' character. My group tends to have guest players from time to time, so keep a couple of spare characters the guests can use. When no-one is playing them the characters slink off into the background. DM does the paperwork for them and keeps them levelled up. We bought this in for two of our players. 1 is an out of town student and is back sometimes during the holidays. Another has a complicated personal life and his attendance was much like your player. We liked both of them and enjoyed roleplaying with them a lot. It was our method of accomodating their patchy attendance without spoiling gaming for the rest of us. Having said that, your player sounds like a pain in the butt. Might be best to get them out of the game altogether. [/QUOTE]
