He only cared about his own indulgence. "Craig looked like he just witnessed the most awesome thing ever." being telling.

After a one-shot where I built what I thought was the most evil villain possible to forge an immediate party unity, I have developed a policy about violence against children. That policy is basically this: If a kid is ever harmed or killed, it always happens "off-screen." The reason for this is that the villain I chose to build was a fallen paladin posing as if he never fell, via the use of an Amulet of Undetectable Alignment. He would routinely collect local orphans under the guise of raising them in the faith and seeing which of them would hear the "Paladin's Call." In reality, he was taking them to a temple where they would be beaten into submission by the previous batch of abductees, now acolytes of the villain's deity. Well, when the party approached him, he tapped the nearest and tallest 2 acolytes on the head, releasing a pair of modified Hold Person spells on them, then picked them up by an ankle each, and started wielding them as weapons. The catch is that the party was meant to capture this PoS alive to be punished publicly by the church he had been defrauding. I had people wanting to hit me out of character, and by the end of the session, was disgusted with myself, and I ultimately shredded the character, never to even mention him again.

It seems like a player that probably doesn’t self reflect very often.

We had a guy make a snobby rich waifu character that ended up getting killed because he attacked a named NPC that was definitely a powerful magic user, and he attacked unprovoked. We were hired as bodyguards for a caravan from Baldur's Gate to Waterdeep, and there was this one cart that was extra fancy (think enclosed stage coach you could sleep in). Obviously a VIP, and had his own bodyguard. We had identified the wagon as suspicious as it was a total dead spot using detect magic, which we determined meant he must be shielding it from magic somehow, maybe an anti-magic field. Most of us decided to leave well enough alone, as he was not posing any kind of threat to the caravan - which again, we were hired to protect and escort. However, this guy in our party, his waifu character caught a glimpse of the occupant when the wagons circled up for chow, and the bodyguard brought the man his meal. We didn't know this, because the player didn't communicate it, but they recognized him as her family's dark secret was they were cult members, and the waifu had seen this man at the cult gatherings. She was privy to information nobody else in the party had, and he was in fact a badguy. So without explaining herself, the waifu demands the rest of the party work with her to attack this guy, and question him. From our perspective, we'd only been a party in-game-world for less than a week. We were all still basically strangers, and had no reason or inclination to blindly trust some stuck up bitch who acted like we were all beneath her. So we told her to go pound sand, that if she wanted to fight him, we won't stop her, but we won't help her, either. She takes great offense to that, and attempts to leverage her sorcery charisma against us in a persuasion check, but the DM said, "Dude, no, they are players, not NPCs. You can't just magically persuade them to play the way you want to play." That was the right call, because above table, we were like, "We're only level 2, and not to get too meta, but this dude is a named NPC with magic powerful enough to block detect magic. He'll likely kill us all." So in character, we're all basically saying, "I wouldn't go starting fights that don't need to be fought. We ain't paid to attack our own caravan. If we do, word will get out, and nobody will ever hire us again. So forget it." Over and over, we warned the waifu to not mess with the guy. Well, they attack the bodyguard. The bodyguard screams in pain as a firebolt hits him in the face. This alerts the hidden bodyguard, a wight, and now it's 2v1. She attacks the wight, too. This commotion has now woken up the high level sorcerer trying to sleep in his wagon. He pops open the door, a spell readied in his hand (DM announces it's a held action that will be released if he gets attacked again), and demands to know who dares attack his bodyguards. The waifu refuses to pick up what the DM is putting down, and instead of resolving the situation with words, she starts to cast a firebolt, and the DM says, "Roll DEX save [I forgot the save number, but it's high. Really high]." She rolls the save, and fails. Keep in mind she's a level 2 sorcerer (1d6 hit die), and I think had maybe 12 HP at most. Upon failing, she's hit with 10d6+40 force damage. She is instantaneously turned to a pile of ash. Our barbarian Minotaur takes a bite out of an apple, and says, "Told 'er not to do that," and my fighter dragonborn just goes, "Hmph," nodding in agreement, arms crossed. Our reborn Twilight Cleric shakes his head and says, "Pity. Not even I can heal that mess." DM says, "Roll new character." At this point, the guy controlling the waifu loses his damned mind, insisting she's not dead. We play on Roll20, and he drags her token back onto the map. The DM deletes the token, and is like, "Bro, no, she's dead dead. Dust. Donezo. Roll a new character." The guy now has a total meltdown, and starts dragging dozens of his token back onto the map, hysterically claiming she's not dead, insisting, absolutely enraged, like on the verge of tears, and fighting the DM's attempt to delete the tokens. The Dm keeps telling him to re-roll charcter, and then he's like, "FINE! I'll re-roll her identical twin sister! You guys don't steal my loot!" And the DM is like, "No, not happening, roll a different character. Everything was disintegrated; there's no loot to be had." We had no magic items or anything like that. She was just wearing starter gear. Even gold gets disintegrated as per spell description that only magic items survive. Gold ain't magic. He threw the biggest tantrum I've ever witnessed an adult man throw. Screaming, cussing, crying, you'd think the DM had just disintegrated his mother or something. Holy shit. He then directed the blame on the rest of the party for not helping in the fight, and we were like, "Bro, we told you it was a bad idea, and that we wouldn't help. You did this to yourself." He's in total meltdown at this point, tells us all to fuck off, and leaves the Discord group. Bizarre. Like dude, you were only level 2; re-rolling a character at level 2 is no big deal.

The ONLY time ive ever had a "forced to roll to avoid "forced" sex" was in a predesigned campaign, not homebrew. In an optional area and the entire party was told that this was in the module and asked if we wanted to keep it or just trade it for something else. We all agreed we were grown up enough to deal with it and were assured none of it would be role played as it would be a fade to black now make consecutive saves scenario. When we then entered that area we were again reminded of that room and the dm checked in to make sure it was fine. Handled well. None of us died to the "Compulsion" that essentially produced immense lust over any who enter and fail a save, designed to pretty much force exhaustion or death.

Soo, I agree with the "It's understandable that Craig was quite upset" part, but I would call you to reconsider the "why would OP do such a thing, it makes no sense", so that if some1 irl tells you about being orded around or other controlling/manipulative behavior by their love intrest, you could give more support/advice to such person than "what's the problem, seems fine to me"

8:42 "... ST, which appears appears to be the Dungeon Master term they use for this game" As someone who is familiar with the Exalted system, yeah that's it. ST is short for "StoryTeller" and is your host for the system. To add some meta knowledge and context to that section of the story: >The "no skill over 3" is kind-of an actual rule. The game considers 2 to be "generic/average", 3 is above average, and 5 is legendary. There's a bonus trait you can take where you are so generic-looking that noone can remember what you look like, but it requires you to have Appearance 2, no higher no lower. HOWEVER, This is usually only applied to SKILLS, not attributes, and even then you get like 15 Bonus points that can be spent during Character Creation which CAN raise your skills up to 5. >"Unheroic heroic mortals who have yet to Exalt." Uh, what? So, to approximate this to D&D as best as I can: A Mortal starts at Lv1 and caps at Lv5, and can't use any magic at all, where as Exalted start at Lv4 and can go all the way up to Lv20 or higher. All Exalted start as Heroic Mortals who are chosen by the gods (sorta), with Heroic being a definition of scale not alignment. All Adventurers in D&D are "Heroic Mortals." An Unheroic Mortal would be the barkeep or town guard. Exaltations explicitly do not choose the meek to become champions. >"Mask of Winters" is a fairly big stock-badguy in the setting... I know little about D&D's world, but the closest analogy I can think of would be name-dropping "Strahd" >I don't think the Familiar background allows you to have a shapeshifting pet. Familiar 3 gets you either a panther OR a human-smart cat that can "talk" to you (Analogy, Teekl from Young Justice), Familiar 5 gets you both in the same pet, but no magic powers. But with Craig as ST, I'm not surprised it was allowed. Edit: With what the familiar turned out to be, I'd say she would be properly represented by the Allies background instead... at rating 8 or higher. >Knowing Terrestrial Sorcery at character creation while being mortal... legally possible. It means your character has underwent at least two eye-opening experiences about the reality of the world (One to awaken their Essence, which all Exalted get for free, and one to undergo the trials of Sorcery, which even Exalted must do), and probably had to min-max his stats to pull it off (Mortals start with Essence 1, Exalted with Essence 2, and Essence 3 is required to learn Sorcery). It is exceptionally rate in-universe, but it IS possible. >Elaboration on Charms: Some charms can be outrageous, others are basic. A Paladin's Smite would count as a Charm, as would a Bard's Inspire. Charms form the basis of the game's system, being basically every ability besides basic move and attack. >Sorcery as charms... oh boy. Sorcery is MUCH different in Exalted than D&D. First, you initiate casting on one turn, and then launch the spell at the beginning of the next turn. If the spell is a higher tier of magic (there are three tiers total), you have to spend an additional turn casting per tier. This consumes one Willpower per tier, which players start with about 7 and caps at 10, and you recover approximately 1d3 to 1d5 Willpower per long-rest. The payoff for this insanely costly system is first-tier sorcery lets you turn someone's bones into lava (or cast Fireball), while third tier sorcery lets you fire an anime pillar-of-light that erases everything in a 100-yard radius of impact. >Tattoo Solar... I can't completely discount the concept of tattoo-powers as being possible, but Solar is no and prototype is most likely no. There is an example of Tattooed Exalted, however; Lunar Exalted, which are werewolves/shapeshifters. >Lost Demon Queen Raga... I'm just going to say that Demons in Exalted do *not* work that way. Short version is when the Gods (who created the Exalted) overthrew their creators, said creators were thrown into a pocket dimension as a prison. Those former creators (and their lesser servants) are Exalted's demons. Four tiers, with multiple lines of text explicitly saying that the Fourth Tier can NEVER escape (at least not without breaking the whole prison open) and are the physical terrain of the pocket dimension. A Third Tier demon is an equivalent power-level to Tiamat or Bahumut (minimum) and don't even get proper statblocks, Second tier is probably as strong as an elder dragon, First tier are your basic mooks. >Sidreal Exalted... Solars are Paladins, Lunars are Druids, Sidereals get all sorts of fate-related nonsense. People exalt as Sidereals because fate says so... that's pretty much it. Being hugged to death though should have turned her into an Abyssal, though.

I'm just super confused that he had to go 'change into outdoor clothes'... like put on a jacket? Or did he bring a second set of clothes to change into? Very strange

'It would look stupid' is such a weird justification for a GM screwing over their player in a game that only exists in descriptions

If anything the Aloof character probably would've been good as a twist villain if done right. Get the party to like em and at the one point betray them. After all, nobody betrays trust like Gaston.

No, honestly, I think there was no better way it could have ended. Craig basically kicked himself out due to being unable to separate himself from the fantasy. I hope Craig gets help. With Craig seeing himself out, OP and the rest of the group didn't have to expend any negative energy.

Craig is this typical hentai main character, who is stalking girls, coping that he has a slightest chance. I almost turned the video of because if disgust and cringe I had been feeling while listening. He is so cartoonish in all of that almost like he is not real, and was just created to be made fun off, like some show characters, if u know what I mean. Thx for reading, btw. Made me feel this DnD vibe, actually. Not the best one in terms of emotions left from the story, but still really interesting. and your voice really does make it to enjoyable experience. 😁

Thr submissive part would be more worrying if i knew to what point did he take it. For me the whole roll to stop your charecter from graping a child is the moment he would be kicked from the freind grouo like. The heck is wrong with you at that point

Why even DM for a group if your goal isn't for the players to have fun? Like the goal should be for everyone to enjoy themselves and in a game like D&D you're just not going to get that "perfect" game without hyper controlling everything.

No surprise this jerk friend was able to railroad everything and got his way. I'll bet he would play with him again if he came back and fed them some cookie cutter BS about growing as a person and slowly slip back into his old ways once ge got back in. And I hope he does. OP sounds like a pushover. OPs mushy "high road" takeaway that sounds like something from an after school special about dealing with bullies is what enabled the dude. This wasn't just 1 game. I would have started avoiding gaming with this dude after the first game.

Seems like the dm is interested in a profane/ horror setting, about loss and corruption. Also the players are very uppity about their morality, so to a dm trying to tell his story, is this a glass house situation. Also communicate and setting expectations seems to be lacking on all ends, especially from the story teller.. but live and let learn..!

First story with the waifu: Why was the waifus personality changed? The writer just skipped over it. I know i would be pissed if my characters love interest drastically changes for no reason and then for the writer to say the change was for the better? No dude. Craig was deep into the roleplay, not unnatural for the D&D community and he made side stories that were good and well received. DM in the wrong here.

OP in Story 1: *Gives Craig's waifu to Jake* OP in Story 2: "For some reason Craig had some sort of issue with Jake." Really OP? You don't have ANY idea...? I also suspect on the same vein, the reason Craig favored OP so much wasn't because Craig particularly cared about him, but felt MAYBE the favoritism would give OP a moment to say "You know what? I'll return the favor and give you a brand new waifu or old school Rei and a spot back in Anima!" I give Loot some major credit for pointing out OP's flub regarding his skill in romance. Just yanking someone's love interest away and changing them for no reason worth mentioning is kind of spitting into the face of what was built up so far without Craig's agency. Granted, in OP's defense he -thought- Craig would like the new portrayal of Rei and didn't MEAN to be a dipstick, but still, gotta be careful with romance in RPGs, even with people who arn't Craig. OP is a kind soul, having no ill-will against Craig as a whole despite the latter's antics. Would be fun to play with him sometime honestly.

Do not like Craig so not defending him. But it struck me wrong when the op stated the "waifu" was somehow better because she was not introverted any longer. That somehow sarcastic and snippy and extroverted was better. Idk it just bothered me.

Best I can guess is OP intended for Rei's initial introvert submissive nature to be a flaw to grow out of rather than an endearing trait.

Somebody put a good point earlier, it sounds like the DM was uncomfortable playing out Craig's romantic enjoyment of a timid and subdued character so wanted to make sure the character had more strength to balance the power dynamic and this put Craig off.

"Craigs" real name is Louie and he is like this in everything he does, and its gotten worse. He actually uses his dead mom to guilt girls IRL and during games into feeling bad for them. [For context, his mom died when he was 13, well over 15+ years ago!] If a girl shows any interest in anyone else, he will actually dm them and tell them she is his gf and they need to back off.
