This reminds me of my Homebrew "Aurora 4x" inspired campaign where one of my players (a ship captain named Bruntus Fizzruld) was so stupid he once rammed an enemy Assault Cruiser six times the size of his 500m long destroyer to save a fleet outnumbered 5 to 1. He survived most of the campaign until he did the first smart thing of the entire campaign. Towards the end, when surrounded by an enemy invasion fleet, captain of the only ship (destroyer) fast enough to alert the main fleet, and compulsive hoarder of explosives. . . Well, the crazy bastard offered to fly a shuttle to surrender himself, his vessel and military secrets to the enemy admiral in exchange for his life. I felt so proud describing the scene of a super massive explosion of ~150,000 tons of Apocalypse-class Battleship consuming the surrounding battleships, carriers and cruisers. He was easily the most hated character through the entire campaign but he finally did _something_ right in his final moments.

I don't usually comment on Dnd Stories but this one is different. Bonzy struck a cord with me i never knew was there. His build and reasoning for being that way was heart breaking and... I felt eased by this. I myself have been nicknamed "The Giving Tree" once in grade school. I always helped people without a care for myself. My life has amounted to very little so far.. And Bonzy is a character i can connect with deeply. Im just glad to see that even the selfless can be memorable

Probably less stupid PIs and Ex Army Men, Esoteric Professors, and the stereotypical Call of Cthulhu characters, which means they are the ones least likely to come up as even character concepts. Especially if the players are treating CoC like Dungeons and Dragons or Pathfinder where they are murder hobos. Call of Cthulhu is *not* like D&D and punishes you for treating the game like D&D and the DM should as well.
