As a GM/DM or player, have you ever killed someone else’s character out of real life anger?

These polls are difficult because no one wants to admit to being a dick or making a mistake despite us all being humans. So don’t expect an accurate outcome. However I have been there when I was much younger around 16 in High School were we all were much younger and didn’t have all my emotions under wrap. It was a dnd game and I got upset, so one of them got dead.
I did it in high school
i go for no and hope it is true.
But my body count is rather low so….
ohh, just as i write i remember that i did not kill but heavy wounded a player because he annoyed me.
ok, i change to “yes”
I’ve never been angry with a player while GM or player.
When I think about it, I have killed someone’s character in anger over their actions as PCs in high school. It was a direct result of actual in character choices that made little sense and upset all players at the table, but it could be seen as a ooc choice to let the concequence be character death…
Same boat as Aaron Griffin here: High School DM Mike had some anger control issues. 😐
Jan Berger thanks for the candor and letting us see your mental process of honesty!
I’d love to see if anyone had real life beef with someone and subsequently used their GM fiat passive aggressively
I had a Fighter who was completely ruining my setting. Not only had he ignored the theme I made he’d also turned himself into a tank I could barely touch in combat scenarios. In the end I didnt quite kill him but I took away every thing that the character had. I had mutants snap his signature weapon and scar his handsom face… and that was just the start.
I voted yes, but this is a story about being passive aggressive, not killing a character… When I was in college my roommate (Greg) just absolutely refused to clean up after himself; paper plates, red solo cups, clothes, pizza boxes, WHATEVER were strewn all about our (frickin’ TINY) dorm room.
I created an NPC that was just like him, and the Duke put Greg’s character in charge of the NPC (it was the Duke’s son). This character would leave a mess everywhere… camp site, formal dining occasions, trekking through a forest… always with bad consequences (bad guys able to track them, lowered social standing, wood elves attacking, etc.). Sadly, Greg never caught on LOL
