Here's the situation that has come up in one of my sessions where I am a DM.
One of the PCs, a female paladin, by bad luck and poor choices ended up as a prosinor and slave to a horned devil in the lawful evil plane of Baator. And the question of how far does a paladins lawfulness goes came up. A paladin normally must abide by the law of the land, but what if that land is the Nine Hells. Does she follow the laws of Baator in order to simply survive long enough to escape, or does she follow the laws out of her lawful nature (forgoing any evil acts of course). Further more, does following the law of the Nine Hells make her non-good, or on the flip side does breaking the laws there make her unlawful?
