Another player who was at the table during the incident sent me this meme after the problem player in question (they had a history) left the group chat.
Felt like sharing it here because I’m sure more people should keep this kind of thing in mind.
There’s a webcomic I read where the cleric became a cleric and started adventuring so he could be powerful enough to help regrow his mother’s lost arm. When she had the option to regrow her arm, she refused. She didn’t need it. With her extended family, she had all the hands she could ever want.
Extended family tired of moving her furniture:
No, her extended family got mad at her wanting to repay them for a dress, insisting she accept it as a gift. They insist she will never owe them for anything, and for good reason.
I feel like having family who would cast a spell to regrow your arm is part of having family who will help you, but it wasn’t exactly trivial at that point. Regrowing an arm is much more costly than curing blindness or paralysis.
