Of all the people to pick pocket, he chose Ollysta Zadrian.

Silver Crusade

So I was playing PFS when my group met up with Ollysta Zadrian on the street. We had been looking for her for plot stuff and as a Silver Crusade member I was looking forward to RPing an interaction with her. I was talking to her when the rogue of the party (kid, I think about 16yo) says “I pick her pocket!”

I and half the group immediately break character tell him “NO!” in unison. It was quite dramatic. But he made his roll anyway. It is his character and there wasn’t much we as players could or should do to stop him from playing it how he wants, but as he was only a level 4 rogue he got caught. Ollysta told him he had one chance to explain just what he thought he was doing.

He said “There was a bug on you I was just brushing it off.” This went over like a celibate pacifist at a Calistrian bar. And Ollysta gave him one more one chance to tell the truth. This time he said something like “I am low on gold and wanted some of yours.” She let him go with that.

He did a few other things that bothered me. He even abandoned the table in a huff at one point when his character was in a bad situation. (It looked like he was going to die.)

I don’t really have a question or anything but I wanted to vent. I was really looking forward to running into Ollysta Zadrian. I know I couldn’t spend a lot of time on the scene with her as I was the only SC at the table and the only follower of Sarenrae. But my moment got hijacked and I am a little bitter.

That’s all. Thanks for reading.

There's a fat joke in there somewhere, I just know it...

Next time, politely ask the GM to explain him what might his action cause. The GM should have intervened a bit not to stop him as much as explain him that this falls under the "don't be a jerk" rule.

Why is it that the newbies always go "I want to play an elf rogue"?

Because they don't know that dwarves are better?
