[QUOTE="Thotas, post: 5859599, member: 18974"] Wow, after reading that first post, I gotta say something without waiting the time it would take to read the whole thread. So, somebody's probably said this already. I'm undoubtedly chiming in on someone else's already expressed opinion. Assuming hypothetically you were to accommodate this player's wish, and give his character safety. You then have to ask if you're going to treat everyone else the same way. If you don't, then you've got a table where one PC can't die, but the others can. Clearly, this is unacceptable. If you do, a newcomer has dictated the campaign style for an established game. That may be about the only thing that's even worse. Enjoy this player while you can, but eventually he's out, almost undoubtedly. And given the reasons provided for the request, be ready to accept that the longer it takes, the more invested he'll be in the character, and the bigger the scene will be when the day comes.
