Delight is to him- a far, far upward, and inward delight- who against the proud gods and commodores of this earth, ever stands forth his own inexorable self.

For what it's worth (after catching up on posts), I don't view a low Charisma as a reason for a character to be insulting. If anything, an aggressively insulting character would have a high Charisma. A low Charisma character would not do much to impose his wishes on anyone, one way or the other.

Your mileage may vary.

I don't want anyone to leave the game, either, but the "my way or the highway" insistence is going to create some uncomfortable moments, in game and out.

I lost quite a bit, didn't I? We play this game so we can ALL have fun.
Your characters will not have fun, but the players are supposed to have fun.

For what may be worth, since in this my opinion is worth as everyone else's, I believe Gnorric is insulting to the royalists cause he views them as enemies, not necessarily because of low charisma.

To explain the situation: Gnorric didn't know the chest was trapped when he told Burdur to have a look at it. Van said he retrieves the paper and Ewan posted he's investigating for traps right after.
Well, once Van stepped in the room, the skeleton attacked, so it would make no sense for Gnorric to be searching traps at the time. Then the matter with the paper came up before Gnorric could go in and spend 1 minute to look for traps.

All true.

Have fun, guys, and good luck in DEATH HOUSE.

I'm sad it came to this, but I respect your decision.
Thanks for gaming.

Too bad to see you leaving guys. Was fun playing with both of you.

What if you take another PC e start over? Mists get people in RL often so you might be gotten there later. Maybe take someone no rebel or royalist a more simple PC with higher CHA so we can all continue playing. Just an idea.

OK, so we will continue.
With your permission, we would assume that Van had a long talk with Gnorric and Bhunder and they will be more mellow (and way more passive) in the near future.

Don't feel obliged to treat those two as lamp-post NPCs however. I expect things will come up in the near-future that will change the dynamics.

My sister (VAN) will be absent for a trip for a few days. I would keep things slow till she returns if that's OK with you all.

Cool with me. My daughter has been off from school this week, so my time has been taken up with much fun parenting stuff.
