I swear to God, every time! Assamites from oWoD and Euthanatos from oWoD Mage were notorious for attracting psycho jerk players. For example, in one of my Mage games the party included a perky goth Euthanatos that was largely based on Neil Gaiman's Death character from
The Sandman with a dash of Gilly from
Dork Tower. I had written a short but very specific background and role-playing tips for every character.
The guy who picked that character player it like an effing psychopath (maybe I should have been tipped off when he refused to play it as a female character). The party had to recover and protect a Mortal who had important information that the Technocracy wanted to keep secret. At one point, the Mortal had been in a car accident and the PCs had to find her at the hospital. The no-longer-perky goth went in, was politely greeted at the information desk, and learned the location of the patient's room. He then shot the employee and walked through the hospital in Terminator fashion, killing nurses until he found the patient's room, interrogated her, and killed her too.
That was my final lesson. I swore, no more characters who dress in black!
