[SBLOCK=NLF]Ah, the warehouse thing. I thought that was a case of you hedging strongly towards Lawful. It was clearly not a Non-Good or Evil act to enter the warehouse. Chaotic? Absolutely. But she's Neutral Good. I was (and still am a bit) perplexed that she thought it was an evil act--perhaps you're something approaching Lawful Good in real life so you sometimes conflate the two?
It was also pretty much the only case in the adventure so far of the Exalted thing getting in the way (imo perhaps unnecessarily). There was some fun Exalted and VoP tension that was purely roleplaying at other points, such as at the inn. Actually, the only other rough edge, in my opinion, was with the pentagram, and even then I was definitely still okay with it because she eventually did let him out--Dhistan is definitely not the nicest guy, but an Exalted character wouldn't leave anyone to be sacrificed to the Abyss (and Rhaka didn't leave him, so it was okay). Of all the groups that have played through that scene (three now), Rhaka actually waited far longer than Good or even just Neutral-aligned characters to let the prisoner out--of course, that may just be a caution born of Rhaka understanding that her perception and Wisdom sometimes outpace her understanding.[/SBLOCK]
