Have you ever had a normal every day player in your group, who ALWAYS plays a dickbag of a scumweed, and always wonders why the fuck everyone is out to get him after they learn of his shenanigans
One of my players just quit our latest game because other party members killed his character after he robbed a bread shop and killed the shopkeeper, then tried to run away when they confronted him and he tried to sword his way out and got killed in the process.

I had one guy who was supposed to kill this important NPC all stealthily because he decided to serve the evil god of the campaign for POWER because he's a retard. So he starts talking to the NPC, they go out to the bastion of the tower he's in and the guy fucking throws the NPC off of the tower in the middle of the crowded city. Now of course a ton of guards are flooding in to murder the guy (the NPC was an old captain of the guard) and he tries a bluff check, but critical fails. Then he derails the whole campaign by demanding we restart that entire section.

Restart. That section. Of the campaign.

Of course, I said no, he got butthurt and the campaign ended up falling apart over a bunch of arguments

Alrighty then.

First, let me talk a little about this guy and how he stands in our group. He's the twin brother of another player, but he's in far worse condition

Brother #1 is handsome, well groomed, and a considerate man. A true "This Guy"

Brother #2 (That Guy) while he looks the same, hardly ever bathes, has piss yellow teeth, and acts like a complete douchebag. He browses /b/ during games, chortling loudly

Sorry for the delay, I was talking with my elderly grandfather while typing

He's also very combative, metagames like a fucker, habitually refers to people as "Fags" I.E 4chan abbreviations in real life (For example, when I was hanging out with my group at the mall looking at games, we saw my boss. Instead of using the pronoun "He" he substituted the word "Ponyfag" instead. In front of my boss)

Party consists of me (Paladin) Brother #2 (Cleric) Brother #2 (Rogue) and ca/tg/irl (Fighter) We were supposed to be investigating a series of disappearances in a frontier esque town. They'd been mining for rare metals, and various smiths, workers, and other assorted people started vanishing

I head down to the local guard outpost to see if they've seen anything, fighter heads off to the bar, and Cleric goes to consult the various grieving families

The Rogue decides (After Brother #2 decided that he really REALLY liked Skyrim) to sneak around and steal from people. He nicks a few coins, but botches a roll on a guard, and is found out. He manages to get away from him, but the rest of the guard were mobilized. He runs into a clothing shop, kills the clerk, and tries to hide in the lines of clothes

The DM asks him to roll for concealment. The dice gods had a sick sense of humor that day, as he rolled a 20 and had a sizable amount of ranks in stealth. Though as he rolled it, he jumped up and down, shouting "HAHAHA! FUCKING DUMBASSES!" and flaring his disgusting yellow teeth.

The guards don't find him, most of them leave, but one stays behind to examine the corpse, and see if he's OK

The Rogue moves behind the guard, sneak attacks, he's down, bleeding pretty bad

Brother #2 rolls again, smiling with glee

"What are you doing?" the DM asks

"Rolling a grapple check to pin him down"

"What? Why would you do that? He's already staggered"

"So I can rape him, duh"

The room goes silent for a good minute; he's still got that smug expression on his face

"Why the FUCK do you want to rape a helpless guard?"

You know the reasoning they have on the internet with "It's not gay if balls don't touch!" Due to some form of super autism, he believed this to actually be true

He rolls the dice anyway, and gleefully describes the guard rape, bouncing in his chair as he describes humiliating him

At this point, the DM decided to call the game and Brother #1 took his retarded kin home. That was about two weeks ago, we haven't had a game since.

We've done other stuff with him before this, but nothing involving rape. Just whining and pouting and metagaming and so on

Alright, here's a Dark Heresy story

I'm a Guardsman, Brother #1 is a Cleric, Brother #2 is a Psyker, and ca/tg/irl is a Tech Priest

We're investigating a possible cult in a hive world, trying to pick up some information, staying a bit low, and scraping by, clue by clue

The Psyker tries to go off and follow a lead that we weren't 100% sure of (Pretty much involved a he-said-she-said) scenario involving some factory workers

Psyker goes off to the factory, barges in, and demands to speak with the the people that were described

Now, this wasn't a very subtle Psyker. He had a reconstructed skull, one of those fancy Aquilla staffs, and flowing robes. People were getting pretty scared, and backing away.

Psyker decides that this isn't working, so he grabs a worker, and uses blood boil on him, demanding the culprits to come forward

Now they didn't know he was with the inquisition (We didn't get rosettas, we were expected to be subtle, after all) To them, he was just some Psyker who was blood boiling their buddy

Some of them work up the courage to mob him. They start to beat him with wrenches/other blunt objects.

>Rolls phenomenon

So the Psyker becomes a daemonhost, and quickly tears through the workers. They're starting to shit their pants at this time, and start fleeing. Again, this player runs on Autism, and thinks his transformation is "LOL SO AWESUM" and talks about torching shit.

The Arbites show up and start shooting the shit out of him with their auto-shotguns, and he dies

Afterwords, he has a smug "That was fun" face afterwords, and we ended there.

Sorry to interrupt your stories, but I'll be brief.
I was playing against a guy in I think my 4th game of warhammer with my bullshit tau list, including (I think) a total of 2 battlesuits with craptastic weapons and gun drone squadrons.

Long story short, his space wolves wipe the floor with me, and after I shake his hand, he invites me to another game. I agree because, hey, I need the experience, and he says "hang on"

He runs up the stairs (we're playing in the basement) and I hear from upstairs "hey Dad! I tabled the tau!" and proceeded to gloat about how well he'd won against me while I'm building terrain for the next game, honestly considering quitting and feeling bad about myself. After he wipes the floor a second time and don't I just feel like the worst person ever, he says "Wow, you're 1850 list isn't very good. you might want to look up better ones online"

>your 1850 list isn't very good
>1850 list
>1850

I'd been playing this whole time with 1500 since that's the suggested total in the codex. I accept that we should have checked, but he was also one of those players that let's new players make tactical mistakes just because they don't know the rules (moving jump infantry 6" to move).

kinda long and rambling, but it's one of my worst experiences in playing warhammer 40k.

I ahve another story, but I'll try to keep it brief.

I was playing a lawful good Inquisitor the other day, and the party was hired to go down into the crypt of the local church and clear out some zombies. Our CN gunslinger was stealing all of the valuables down there RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME! He didn't even try to hide it. The first time I just asked him to put them back, and he got all pissy about it, but he did as he was asked. The second time I punched his character (not to deal damage, just to get his attention) and threatened to clap him in irons.

So he decides to sneak attack me (the rest of the party is present for all of this), and the player throws a bitch fit when the party stops him and beats his character into unconciousness. He quit that day because the rest of us "Weren't taking the game seriously". Fucker.

First time with wizard, forgot to write down draconic bonus langauge or take my other bonus languages. DM rules I cant cast spells without draconic.

Played my first game of D&D in years yesterday. Organised everything since none of my mates have played D&D. (Our DM had run online games once or twice but never a physical game)

Game went absolutely great for the entire day, bar the one guy I figured would be an issue, getting louder and louder every time he realised his attempts to talk over others wasn't working. I still have no idea why he talked as much as he did, considering that every time we went into combat his actions consisted almost entirely of screaming "I CAST MAGIC MISSILE" at the top of his voice. Eventually at about 9pm the game was minutes from wrapping up and said guy decided he had to leave because "he was nervous about getting stuck on the last train" so he asks me for directions and then heads off.
>> Anonymous 05/06/12(Sun)17:35 No.19002781
>>19002771

Ten minutes later we get a phone call from this guy freaking the fuck out because he completely ignored my directions and got lost.

I spent an hour looking for him, only to find out he was FIVE FUCKING MINUTES AWAY FROM MY HOUSE and the only reason it had taken an hour to retrieve this information was because he was crying and taking panic attacks, while endlessly phoning one of my friends.

The train station is less than a ten minute walk away from my house by the way, and getting there consists of walking down three straight roads while turning a corner once or twice at places that are very easy to find, making it rather hard to get fucking lost.

Having left everyone in my house to go and look for this idiot, I wasn't in the greatest of moods when I found him, but made sure not to raise my voice or anything, for fear of making him fucking cry again. Pointed out to him that he was mere minutes away from the station then turned around and started walking back to my house before he could open his mouth and make me want to punch him.

By the time I got back, two of the other players had left because it turns out this guy phoned one of the girls from our group, crying about how I'd hurt his feelings and he had taken ANOTHER panic attack and needed someone to walk him to the train station, so que my friend and her BF wandering off to find him.

After speaking to her today, turns out this guy never wants to come back again for another game because he's terribly, terribly upset that I didn't treat him like everything was sunshine and roses after he wasted an hour of my fucking time trying to look for him, because he couldn't listen to simple fucking instructions.

This guy is 26 years of age by the way, and he can't take a 5-10 minute walk down a road without freaking out and expecting everyone to run to his aid and save him because he can't fucking deal with reality.

It's like training dogs-you don't give them a treat when they do something wrong. That tells them that the 'wrong' thing is going to get them rewarded, and so they do it again. And yeah, panic attacks are a thing but so is getting upset about someone unable to do something so simple, and wasting everyone's time. If he wanted to go to the train station, but couldn't do it alone, he should have waited till the game was over, and other people were leaving.

This guy doesn't have autism or anything like that, just a massive attention seeker. Spent most of the session as I said, trying to shout over anyone that had anything to say, getting louder and more obnoxious as the night went on, literally screaming "I CAST MAGIC MISSILE" while pointing at people, because he loves making himself the centre of attention be it for good or bad reasons.

Fucked up the ending of the first D&D I've managed to get going in years and several peoples first D&D game ever all because he likes it when people feel sorry for him.

You know the effects of autism can be overcome and mitigated, right? It's not "whelp, the shrink said I got autism so now I have to act like a ponce all my life". It's just a handicap which means he has to work harder. A bit harder or a lot harder, depending on how bad the autism is, but it's totally possible to overcome.

I quit my group because the resident female played a cat girl "to annoy me", in her words, then proceeded to annoy me with her shenanigans of being distracting to the game.
Since she was female if I told her to cut it out, I'd be asked to leave.
Then again, if I told her to smarten up, she'd take personal offense to it and wouldn't want to do anything forever, ever again because her feelings were hurt.
This has happened at least three times before with various characters that hijack the game or refuse to participate entirely.
One time, I was GMing and she was playing a woodlandey-elf, and she refused to participate in "city folk problems" and fucked off to her forest.
I let her fuck off to her forest and didn't even give her a bit of camera time because the setting was city-centric, and she was told this at the beginning of character creation.

Alright, time for more stories of Jekyll and Hyde!

Jekyll & Hyde in Ops and Tactics

None of us had any coherent idea of a campaign at one point, so we decided to wing a campaign. We came up with a Red Dawn scenario in which the Soviet Union invaded America in 1957. I roll up a Greaser tough hero, Jekyll rolls up a Scientist, and Hyde rolls up a soldier

The game takes place in Florida, and we're all described by the GM as neighbors. It's a nice sunny day in Miami, but what's this? There are some strange boats on the horizon. Not only that, some strange planes are flying in the sky. Soldier shouts at the top of his lungs "THE COMMIES ARE ATTACKING!" and rushes towards the shoreline, brandishing his M1911A1. I, the burly greaser take it upon myself to rush after him and rescue his dumb ass. Shells sail over and start bombing the place and people are scattering.

(Also, ca/tg/irl wasn't here for this. Part of the reason why we decided to do this campaign instead; didn't want to do anything too big without her)

We decide that we need some transport if we're gonna get anywhere. Luckily for me, I've got a fairly souped up car, one that can fit the party. However the soldier insists on getting a military vehicle. The DM said, "The National Guard hasn't arrived yet, not even the police. They just literally started attacking. Why would there be any military vehicles?"

"I dunno", says Hyde.

>okay.jpg

So we all get in my car and drive off, occasionally making saves against the bombs

At this point, Russian troops start storming into the city

He's been up to my house before, and yeah it was starting to get dark. Thing is, at the point he decided to leave we had just come in contact with the BBEG for the first time and there was a lot of RP'ing going on. He knew his train wouldn't be coming for another half our or so, but still insited on heading out before the game finished. Regardless of all this, if he had asked for someone to walk him to the train station I would have gladly done so and just put the game on hold for the twenty minutes or so it would have taken to walk him there and get back, but he didn't.

>>19002928
Funnily enough, every single member of our group completely agrees with you on this, but they're all too "polite" to say anything to him, about his behaviour. I was really worried he'd bring his bullshit into the game, but decided to give him a chance. Other than constantly trying to cut off people in the middle of RP'ing and screaming his move every single damn chance he got, he was relatively calm so I figured we'd gotten off lucky. Wound up chewing him out earlier today after he called to apologise which consisted of him saying "I'm sorry" then going quiet expecting me to say sorry for not being sympathetic to his bullshit.

With a swerve of the car, I manage to hit a couple of foot soldiers and steer out of the way of the oncoming gunfire. Soldier is taking a few potshots with his pistol, surprisingly doing fairly well. Well, maybe this'll be awesome, right?

I tell everyone to hold on, heading for the local gun shop, slamming the brakes and hitting the curb. We all barge in, and grab some rifles/pistols. Hyde complains about M16's not being there, despite the fact this is 1957. He then demands, "Well, what about the AK? That was produced in 47!"

We all stare at him for a while, and then tell him to shut the fuck up.

Despite the fact that none of us have any proper ranks in using guns (Save for soldier) we decide it's better safe than sorry. We head out, ducking behind the car from a Soviet patrol

By throwing around, he had the boxes and he thought it would be a "SO RAMDUMB XDXD" idea to toss them around into various baskets and stuff, knocking over some other stuff. We hear the hollering, and go over to see he's made a huge fucking mess. He then grabs an Applejack box and starts making a piss poor southern impersonation (For reference, this takes place in Virginia. I've got a rather thick accent, Jekyll and Hyde moved here with their folks a couple years back) The manager comes out and sees the mess, and demands an explanation.

Hyde proceeds to try to blame the mess on me, saying "He was trying to buy ponies! Things for little girls!" At this point, I kind of lost my temper and raised my voice. At that point, we were asked to leave. I didn't talk to him for a while after that

We got a kid (15 or so) playing a psyker in our DH game after everyone warned him against playing it. And the character is constantly trying to get himself killed (well, he doesn't want to be killed, but actions speak louder than words). He just went into a rather hostile city alone, just out for a walk... While he knew that we had been watched before after we investigated some exceptional murders with zombies involved. Our DM was merciful though and didn't actually kill him.
But in the end, while he can be a very annoying character, he ends up being a butt monkey all the time and gives us good laughs (though I don't think his player likes it as much was we do).

Yeah, the ones that actually have a problem are usually pretty okay, and if they've been diagnosed, they usually understand that they might need to watch what they say and do.

Even the barely functioning ones aren't usually all THAT GUY to the level that we hear of.

Most however are "assburgers", people who've heard of the term on the internet and use it a-la Eric Cartman to be complete fuckwads expecting and demanding that they be afforded ALL OF THE BENEFITS OF ALL THE DOUBTS for everything they ever do or MOST EGREGARIOUS FOUL ON THINE PART.

Let's see... in a sense, everybody in our group has a few quirks (one likes to write out HUGE character backstories, another can be a little too "meta" at times) but this one guy... ugh.

He argued about all kinds of stupid little details, just so his fictional character could be just that little bit cooler. It got to the point where the GM was constantly asking him if That Guy even wanted to play any more, and I was singing "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot" just so I could have something fun to do. Worst part, we were playing Cyberpunk 2.0.2.0. and his character was a Solo, so beating him up in-character was impossible (Solo's special ability is to know if somebody is drawing a weapon near him). We eventually got rid of him by telling him we were moving to another place.

Thing is, we've got a new member on our table, and while he's not That Guy... well, at times he's certainly pushing it.

a dude in in my PF group skimms the edges of thatguydom very closely at the moment.

He plays a chaotic neutral cleric of a godess of lust and knowledge. His character is a lesbian elf/celestial whoms greatest goal in life is to create the finest all female harem in the world. He describes his character (out of combat at least) as dressing in sexy see trough clothes, proficient in "exotic" dancing and so on.

Still plays her as a bro, pulls her load as a healer in combat and is generally helpfull in social endeavours without snatching the lime lights.

I mentioned Leadership and what it does last game since my paladin uses it to have a band of vigilantes. He got a naughty glimpse in his eye and then declared that he finally have a means to get ALL the bitches.

That guy? That guy.

Rogue Trader DM here. Our Rogue Trader alternates between semi okay to annoying whingebag of fuck. Let us start with session one. because when i was 15 and got into his group and refused to read the PHB (20 new, read all the sauce for 3.5 etc. As you fucking should) he took revenge to not read even the core or learn the basics of the system. So when it got into session two and i was asking for rolls he admitted, i expect, to annoy the shit out me that he was just rolling and waiting for us to tell him if he succeeded in whatever id asked them to roll or not. Fast forward after walking him fucking through personally of the system through skills, to combat to ship to ship stuff and he gets impaled along with another PC by ice. The other guy (seneschal) gets himself out of the situation through a combination of stimm, a lasgun to the ice shard that impaled him and pulling himself up off it for massive tissue trauma. What a boss. Our trader? Sat around whining "Am i up yet? I'm bored". cont.

Thankfully RL interfered with successive sessions and we put it down to in traction. He comes back. After that it's been one long combination of "I want to bring 100 of the crew to back us up" and fucking off to bang his girlfriend midway through campaign. Now, one of the party members is an ork mekboy, his clan is part of the crew. This doesn't do much mechanics wise, just lets me instigate deus ex orkchina for lulz now and then, but he thinks its a free ticket to "throw hundreds of orks at the problem". when i try to explain thats now how the system works outside large scale wars or battles, he argues WHY. He is the captain and he should be able to do that. I more or less have to mix "because they are essential to the ship functioning" and "because i'm the DM and creating warzones when you should be doing things a little more covertly is stupid". So that is my groups that guy.

PS. He's very much into "Lol chaos is cool i want to be a heretic". He doesn't really understand 40k either. Usually by stating "That is stupid" for just about everything. I don't know why he is in the game, i suppose i feel some loyalty to my own DM. He runs DnD fantastically but he's a bit of a tard towards any other system. Thanks for sharing my pain.

I honestly just wish he would pretend to be in a serious venture, i try and inject lulz into the games. We have a Commissar Career (dark reign fan thing i think) Gretchen lurking around with a huge ego and being ineffectual but nope. His char is called Bonefuck in a pimp hat and stupid accents and if he isn't the center of attention he is bored. If the group wins in combat they are overpowered and if he loses he hates his weapons and bitches his char is useless. He has fucking rareass las gauntlets i let him roll for at gen as an incentive to a new player. It's all a bit of a mess and writing this dampens my soul a little. Other than him i am loving the balls out of the campaign.

I would have to agree with you, But I was barely scratching the surface.
His orc character wears a loincloth only (he painfully describes it's smell, and tries to get naked at any opportunity) and he's always trying to eat other members of the party (who are all individually stronger and better in general than him).

His previous character? a goblin obsessed with autoerotic cannibalism. He tried to rape my character's goddamn ear hole.

Before that? A gruff beastmaster with a bear campaign. The beastmaster was antisocial. To everyone. No reason. He just wanted to be a prick.

Pretty sure he was fucking his bear as well.

I had a "That Girl" in a 4e D&D campaign some buddies and I did back in highschool. She was boinking our DM, a good buddy of mine, which is why she was able to get away with her bullshittery. Our party, pre-"That Girl", consisted of a dragonborn Paladin of Bahamut, a halfling rogue, an Eladrin Wizard, a Dwarf cleric, and myself a Tiefling Warlock. We were resting in a small village before heading out to find some Magic McGuffin or something, it's been quite some time so the details are a bit fuzzy. This is where we meet her. She has OOC issues with the Wizard so she pulls a mega-bitch move she had rolled up an Eladrin Wizard with some unusually high rolled stats and a few magical items were higher than anything we had. The rest of the party exchanges looks as it's a bitch move but decide not to say anything until we've seen her play.

We're in the local tavern eating, drinking, and chatting with the locals when she sees our party. She comes up to us and starts chatting, it's going good at this point, and eventually joins us as her mentor is in the same direction we're traveling. Our characters retire to their quarters and the first thing we hear in the morning is her bitching at us to get out of bed because she has to deliver an urgent message to her mentor. We head out and she is bossing all of us around both IC and OOC. We're all pretty irritated by her “self-appointed leadership” at this point, except for the DM who was probably going to get “Gosh wasn't my character just the best!” “Yes darling she was” sex.

A quick bit of background for the magic. The DM had ruled, in order to keep things even between the Wizard and Warlock, that each class had mastery over certain types of magic. I can't remember exactly what now but we often worked together to take down magical wards and other spells.
We came to a wall in the canyon we were traveling through and we decide to check for arcana and take a short rest. That Girl begins searching the area for arcana and the Wizard and I assist. She scoffs IC and says that she doesn't need the help of “lesser mages”. My character drops his hands and goes to join the rest of the party. It's discovered that the wall is a fairly complex piece of magic. Involving illusion, wards, and a few other things.
That Girl says she wants to remove it. The DM explains that she'll need my help because of the types of magic involved. She begins bitching and moaning OOC that it's not fair that her character is soo great and shouldn't need my help. This goes on for about fifteen minutes of the pussy-whipped DM calmly explaining how magic worked in this campaign and her bitching. He finally relents and the magic is de-spelled.
We all decide that this is a good stopping point because even the DM is a bit irritated at this point. He drives her home and then comes back. We all have a civil discussion about why she shouldn't be invited back and he agrees. She bitches him out hard for not playing again though.

Oh so you want to dispel the magical ward eh?

Here's a way to do that cuntsniff, since you're character only very recently joined the game as a DM I may be able to retcon that you've multi-classed in (Whatever the appropriate mage type was to dispell the door) but beyond that, unless you have a scroll or some other magical item (MAYBE YOU SHOULD'VE TAKEN SOMETHING THAT EMULATES SPELLS YOU AREN'T VERY GOOD AT INCASE ONE OF YOU GETS INCAPPED AND YOU NEED THE DAMN MAGIC) to help you dispel the barrier, You are not going to destroy the fucking integrity of our entire universe just because you feel that you're characters competent enough to dispell it

She can sure as hell try, she can try everything she wants but the simple fact is she was not trained in the appropriate type of magic and the ONLY OTHER WAY I CAN THINK That you'd be able to get through that fucking barrier is To Spell-craft a NEW spell that SPECIFICALLY deals with the barrier in front of you.

Well i have fuck all to do. Complaining GM of Bitchy Bonefuck the rogue trader, a bit more background around his petty "I won't read the material because you didn't years ago". He works extensive on homebrew systems and settings which i occasionally have a hand in. Rulechanges for DnD are sound, settings and fluff is good and i provide where i can guidance as an outside view of what is very occasionally his own ultra realism faggotry. See when i began running i did lose interest in HIS settings and he got pissy, butthurt and shitmad. He initially tried to bring the game down, critisizing the sessions, my DMing and the system to other players trying to sow dissent and break the game up, to continue playing HIS games (Which we could still do but i stole his timeslot on fridays due to him flaking out of DMing due to...inconsistent reasons). This was brough to my attention, which is when i actually discovered he hadn't read it and was rolling and surrepticiously waiting to be told what he had done. When asking what he didn't like and why it was mumble mumble shuffle shuffle "I don't know what i'm rolling". I called session.

Okay, fine.

We play a convention game, post apocalyptic mystery supernatural noir. WoD system. Game world makes no sense, the apocalypse doesn't seem to have stopped people having jobs and living in apartment buildings. GM is a fat guy who looks kind of like a frog.

We try to solve the mystery, follow leads etc. Our leads go nowhere and eventually he reveals that a ghost did it. As the investigation was basically a waste of time nobody is invested enough to give a shit about his excruciatingly detailed description of how super scary the ghost is, so we sit through it trying not to snicker.

So the game sucks, but whatever. I friend the guy on Facebook, most of his updates consist of him complaining about how mean people are to him because he's fat and gay. Fair enough, that can't be pleasant.

Then he makes a post claiming he has the right to punch anyone who insults him in the face, I point out that he doesn't, and he throws a hissy fit and unfriends me. His last message declares that if he punches someone, it's their fault, just as if they "stepped in front of an out-of-control bus."

tl;dr: Obnoxious fat guy compares himself to a bus.

Once, when we were playing the Star War RPG, he nearly killed my character and had the rest of the party ratted out to the Empire just because we were bailing out of the compound we were spying on because he wanted to get the bounties on every inside who was in the compound by stirring up a workers upraising when we were just sent in to see if there was anyone trying to start shit to begin with. He assumed that we were personally trying to undermine him by not keeping him in the loop/not doing things his way.

You don't need to eat a WHOLE person to be a cannibal.

Well ok actually I think under some naval/military tradition it only counts if you kill someone in order to eat them, but in common parlance I think just chopping a little off someone and eating it counts, even if they live and even if it's an injury they can heal back. A little slice of muscle, say.

... actually I'm not sure if you're a cannibal for eating yourself, even if you're technically eating manflesh.

Self-cannibalism is known as autophagia. And trust me, I'm well acquainted with how cannibalism works, seeing as how I'm weird as hell.

But it's the "auto-erotic" aspect that makes me wonder what the fuck. Auto-erotic means that there's no other outside input required, like masturbation or other forms of self-stimulus. So "auto-erotic cannibalism" implies that he would be sexually aroused through autophagia. Meaning he'd have to eat parts of himself to get out.

Last I checked, goblins didn't...regenerate.
