Sure, that could be the result of a failed ability check on your part to influence the outcome of the election.

Of course! When events in the game world, i.e. the results of the NPC's successful Charisma (Performance) checks, begin to mount up in contradiction to the PC's stated opinion of the NPC's degree of talent, the player might feel the PC is obliged to acknowledge the NPC's raw talent, regardless...

The GM can certainly narrate that the NPC has a reputation as an objectively and expertly competent and gifted performer, a virtuoso in their craft, is well liked and regarded by all, etc, but I don't think that narration should ever contain "you (the PC) are entertained/influenced by their...

The poster to whom I was responding said altruism being a value of good is a "slavery mindset" to which the muscular neutrals are opposed. That's more than just not caring. It's an inversion of morality. It's saying something good is actually bad. This is what evil thinks. I don't think you can...

This raises the question why the GM rolls. Remaining consistent with the rules requires taking this into consideration: The DM calls for an ability check when a character or monster attempts an action (other than an attack) that has a chance of failure. When the outcome is uncertain, the dice...

If by “slavery” you mean the “slavery mindset” that altruism is a good value, then yeah, because that’s the premise of the thread. It’s the position of evil that altruism is an injustice that deprives the truly deserving of reaping the earned benefits of their superior ability to dominate...

Then they are evil.

I think we were also waiting to see if Quinn's cosmic omens negate one of the attacks that hit him. Otherwise, I guess he's down for the count.

They have “good” written in next to alignment. :)

They provide variety. Sometimes the monsters are good. This doesn't mean they won't attack you sometimes, maybe even as often as evil monsters. They might not know the PCs are good after all (if they even are).

The crosses are for when they want to hide the truth of who they really work for.
