This is why I learned to say 'No' early in my GMing career.
I also use the "anything you convince me to allow can also be used against you" approach, which tends to curb some of the behavior.

That's my approach.

I allowed the beetle launcher o' dooom (the physics and mechanics checked out - I ran the numbers) and I said that the offensive Fly spell was ok if my 5 tonne NPC could use the same spell with a corresponding force increase - the player promptly retracted that particular request.

Sorry for the slightly OT and thread necro...

Sletch, you sure that wasn't the shop owner in a Shadowrun game I was running? I ask because it sounds awful bloody familiar.

i had a dwarf ranger with an intelligent axe that was his grandfather, and a donkey animal companion that had an amulet of awakening on.

I swear we game with the same guys.

When 2.0 first came out one of my players saw that "Clergyman" was an origin choice and his eyes lit up in such a crazy manner that the group made a descision that it was a banned origin for him.  He also coined the phrase "I traded my parents for an extra action die" to describe Orphan, and on more then one occasion killed someones parents and informed them that "it'll be ok, you'll be more lucky from now on".  Oh and you know the headbutt trick from Brawling Moves?  He used it on a cocker spaniel...

I do game with the same guys, well, one of them at least.
Specifically the dog headbutter Tongue

Also, this character sounds absolutely fantastic XD (the thread title one)

Nah, it was a guy from one of my uni classes a couple years ago.  It sure does seem like something he would do though, so lets not give him any ideas...

So not HMjesus, not the FLGS owner in question...

Should I be worried you know at least three people in that mold?
