One thought it'd be a great idea to take on a werewolf all by himself without any silver and then botched on his first roll, he was decapitated, eviscerated, and mutilated, in that order. The player got mad at me and threw a hissy fit then left. The other guy didn't last too long after, in a raid on a Sabbat den he tried to take on a Tzimisce elder with his weak ass character and was promptly staked and beheaded. To add insult to injury I decided to have the Tzimisce elder use his fleshcrafting ability from the remnants of the corpse to make little monsters. I explained to them both before we started playing that I'll bend some rules here and there but if you go off and do something stupid I'll make it ten times harder. Neither of them heeded my warning and were thus offed pretty quickly and wanted out of the gaming experience.
