@GM Marvel I think @Mardak Trannyth did excellent roleplaying. I had a similar character with something less dangerous (well... if "any large animal" is less dangerous than this one of dragonkin) but the same mindless rage and sentimental mindset (lost wife and child... even though that child was unborn yet) and if he caused destruction of the party (read: T.P.K.) I would've said "It was fun while it lasted"
At the same time I do agree with the house rules stating "Reckless actions at the expense of the group will not be rewarded".
I do hope that @Betimi's sacrifice will be rewarded even though it could've been one of them nameless mules instead of Beast. For Nacesh it is just that-- a nameless mule-- but for me, the player it's a great sacrifice on her behalf and if we were playing hero points I'd lobby for her to get one for effectively "overcoming" (if not winning) the encounter for the party.
Speaking of same house rules section; I apologise for being absent for so long, even though I was back to the games I DM. I do agree with having a reduced share of XP but at the same time I'd say at the benefit of the whole party.
I may be banging at open doors but I recommend whatever my character doesn't receive to be distributed among the rest of the characters. E.g.
900xp for 5 shares = 180 xp each;
same 900xp for 4.5 shares = 4x200 (active players) + 100 xp (DMPC).
Cheers and nice to be back
