Dinkeldog said:The biggest reason we play with Korak's player is because we like him. There are things about him that are absolutely maddening, but he's a good guy above and beyond all that. He also plays a pretty good paladin--maybe not perfect, but I still haven't dug up the Deed of Paksennarion and given it to him (my Paladin's Handbook), so I give a bit of leeway.
Tis true... Tis true... If he wasn't such a nice guy I don't think this whole thing would be an issue at all... We are very harsh on him during our game (and off) but sometimes it's warranted other times not so. The player takes the abuse we dish out better than the rest of the party would, and certainly better than I would. I mean come on after having his peck killed by Wulf (warranted or not) he harbors no bad feelings. That is a great testament to him. We are trying to train him to be a better player sometimes it strains our abilities.
"No you don't want to take the +5 vorpal, holy, throwing, returning, Keen, Intelligent, life stealing, blinding, Long Sword of the Ancients "
"Why not?"
"Because it throws off the balance of the game"
"What's balance?"
Wulf and Korak's relationship is like Charlie Brown and Lucy. Korak is Charlie Brown......
Wulf: "I'll hold the frigg'n football, hehehehehehe"
