Killing a bunch of evil dragons and their spawn = not evil.
And if "spawn" includes all sorcerers of black dragon descent and their families?
Killing a bunch of evil dragons and their spawn = not evil.
V just needs to cast a wish ("I wish that any of the dragonspawn I just killed that wasn't evil and will not take revenge on me or my family for killing their family would be resurrected") and he's golden again.
Can't. The terms of the deal were that V couldn't use the soul splice to duplicate any divine spell effects. So, no mass-Res.
It goes to showcase one more thing, as well. How scary will it be if/when the three souls are unleashed without any kind of control reigning them in, once the splice is released? When one of them has an epic spell like "familicide" ready to hand, what have the others got up their sleeves?

I have a prediction to make, but sadly won't do it on a public forum incase it is true and forces a change.....
Who cares that the dragon was begging for mercy... It was evil; the MM sez so!
And think of all that XP!!

Plot is immune to rules at the DM's/authors discretion. Personally, I think the MM is in error because I've NEVER agreed with that particular bit.And a bunch of half-dragons, and eggs.
And even the MM says that "Always Evil" only means "Almost always evil". When you're killing hundreds of people, that "almost always" case is bound to crop up.
We of the metallic persuasion take great offense at such small-minded stereotyping of our glorious and resplendent species. A few black eggs doesn't spoil the whole clutch.Personally, I think of Dragons as the latter sort of thing. They are incarnated engines of destruction, the animated will of a primal destroyer goddess. Though sentient, they are no more free willed than hurricanes or earthquakes.
What does family mean? Could be as narrow as direct blood descendents (clearly not the case here)
