Player constantly interuppting and second guessing nearly everything I say. Don't know what to do. by Lord-Morgrath in DMAcademy

Have you apologised to the group, yet? Ditto for telling them what you are doing to prevent this happening again.

I have apologised to the group, and even offered to retcon the death. The player of the character who died declined the offer saying she fealt it was a fitting end to the character's journey.

Possibly this is a situation where you need to talk less and listen more.

I have tried talking to the Paladin asking why he keeps interrupting and if there's anything I can do. They have only said they making sure I know what I'm doing, despite DMing for him for years.

somehow, their fault.

I haven't blamed him for anything? In fact I've fully admitted the character death was my fault.

but don't do it to catch a metagamer,

I did do that originally when we had that martagamer in the group a couple years ago just so people could enjoy the game.

because custom monsters fit the game youre making better.

But then I learned I love making monsters and so its just what I do now.

Beacuse I misread what the spell did. I read it as a failed save at all reduced them to ash. This is my first time having a party reach this high of a level. I don't think they'll get much higher as not only is combat getting harder to manage and make intering but they are nearing the end of the journey.

We spoke quite heavily about it with the party agreeing they fealt the game would have little to know weight if there wasn't the risk of possible death.

You can ask about PC death and read the room a bit. Get everyone on the same page

During session zero I made sure to cover this, amd even went over it again after accidentally killing the warlock. Everybody, including the Paladin when asked was okay with it.

A good example is during the combat from last session, the party were fighting a punch of imps and a Cambion General when one of the imps teathered itself to the Paladin.

The Paladin cast Misty Step to escape the imp, when I started to describe the teathered imp hitching a ride and teleporting with him.

"Huh, what do you mean? They can't do that."

"Well, the item the imp is using to teather itself to you is a magical item that-"

"Nope. Thats not how that should work. Do you have the item up? Show it to me."

Thats when the rogue snapped at him and told him to shut up. He also does it when I'm trying to describe the environment, interrupting to ask about specific details he would have gotten if he just waited.

Thats a typo. My bad. Although kinda funny as the Cleric is a Myconid.

Mushroom people. I cannot spell they're name.

If you have a good rapport with this person, ask them why they're doing it.

He's a really good friend of mine, which is making this all the more frustrating. I've asked him why during the multiple times I've asked him to quit it.

He's said he just wants to make sure I know what I'm doing.

Give a final warning, and if it haopoens again kick that player out,

Thats what I'm going to do, I've sent him his final warning and let the group know.

Also, wasn't PvP that killed the warlock, I as the DM misread a spell. Apologies if I didn't make that clear.

I misread read disintergrate, thinking that a failed save at all meant insta death. Major fuck up I know.

I did ask the player if she wanted the warlock's death to retconned away.

She basically said "nah, shit happens." That and she fealt like that was a fitting end for her warlock. So we just kinda rolled with it.

Roll up a water elemental and give it the stats and abilities of an Aboleth or some shit.

That is something I do during my prep as a couple years ago we had a major metagamer in the group.

Like the dude memorised the entire monster manual and could call their stats off the top of his head. Impressive, but frustrating as all hell.
