In John Douglas' Book, "Mindhunter: Inside the FBI's Elite Serial
Crime Unit" he essentially states (I'm paraphrasing) that necrophiles will
tend to jobs where dead people are involved, such as morgues, funeral
parlours, economics professors, etc; and paedarasts will tend towards
roles where kids are involved, such as sports coach, school teachers, or
day care workers, etc.

Maybe there is some truth to psycho nutbags gravitating towards
roleplaying. I've certainly met some dodgy characters in my years
gaming. One of which I'm certain burned down the venue of a con a
week later (he didn't even call himself by his real name. He
wanted everyone to call him by characters' names) . One got kicked out of
my university for stabbing a guy, and one even burned a pentacle into the
back of the door of my gaming society. Hell, one guy we voted him (while
he was in the room!) most likely to top himself.

The Witch was an interesting personality. I fancied the pants of her
sister, with whom I shared a few classes. She once told me that they were
both adopted. Her sister was a witch, her mother a satanist, and her
father a born again minister of some kind. I can't imagine it really
being true, but just think what dinner at their place must be like!

I don't want to start a sociological argument about this. But I am
curious, who is the weirdest person you've ever gamed with?

David Baxter, you don't want to know details, just use
your imagination & warp It a hundredth fold & It will
still be pale in comparison to "Satan". (GZ)
