    Ancient Question: How to handle surrendering monsters....

    You should, because then you'd know I never said that. That was Lwaxy.

    Ancient Question: How to handle surrendering monsters....

    I agree with you for the most part, but why are you telling me this? Geez, Sekhmet, you always confuse me the Hell out...

    Ancient Question: How to handle surrendering monsters....

    That's because the vast majority is Neutral. And if roleplayed out in the D&D world properly, they would similarly accept it for the 'greater good', which is just about as benevolent as an owlbear's arse - Neutral, but quite disgusting if seen in motion. That doesn't make torture less or not at...

    Ancient Question: How to handle surrendering monsters....

    From what glimpses I got from the Bible and pals, I'd guess God or Jahveh or Allah or whatever you want to call him/her is Neutral by D&D standards, not Good. I'm not a Christian/Jew/Muslim, so those more educated can call me out on it. Anyway, one thing about Evil that most people forget is...

    Can't argue with that. For the most part. Chaotic Good dragons are classy.

    Acorn of Far Travel and Dryads

    We are looking for a Medium Fey race with good travelling capabilities then. What about a gloura? They have wings and can cast bard spells; she wouldn't have a hard time following the party from a safe distance. Glouras also hate fighting, which would be a good excuse as to why she doesn't...

    Acorn of Far Travel and Dryads

    Yeah, if the player's new. If he isn't, he'll just call out on the DM for cheating. Magical travel in a world stuffed with magic is not 'Mysterious'; it happens dayly. And what if one of the players would like to figure out how she does it? Give them no answer? These sort of personally induced...

    Deitys and Apologies

    I'd like to think that's what I did. Did I not? T-T Huh. That makes a lot of sense. I guess making up for the mistake without admitting it outright is still admirable. I might make use of this in a future campaign, thanks for the tip!

    Deitys and Apologies

    Yes, that's true, but our argument addresses the core definition, which is what we've been rambling about for a while.

    Deitys and Apologies

    They are differently Good, but for the same reasons: They all embrace compassion, goodwill, and the care for others. That's the definition of Good under D&D, and it fits all three. It doesn't care if Kord is chaotic and Bahamut isn't as warlike as big H or whatever your reason for mentioning...

    Deitys and Apologies

    Bullpies. There are different kinds of Good people, but they are still called Good for the same frakkin' reasons. Being Good is just a single aspect of one's personality, but the definition doesn't shift into different forms just because it doesn't tell you everything about someone. Actively...

    Deitys and Apologies

    Yes, Good, as a level of morality, is relative, but the Alignment definitions are constant. There could be a horrible plane(A layer of the Abyss, for instance) where everyone kills anyone they can for fun, and the best people are the ones who do that to others while inflicting as little pain as...

    Deitys and Apologies

    They are Good. And since there is only one kind of Good so far, I'd guess they act that way!

    Deitys and Apologies

    Yeah, you've just made this one up. It was published by the Wizards, man. Either the word 'published' or 'Wizards' should tell you it can't be Homebrew. I happen to possess a PDF copy of the DMG and the Player's Handbook. The phrase 'the Gods don't involve themselves directly in the affairs of...

    Deitys and Apologies

    It's from the System Reference Document, which was patched together from various, but 100% core, rules published by WotC. It's free and includes most of the Player's Handbook. I'm sure you have seen it before.

    They are from the Divine Index of the SRD, under Divine Ranks and Powers. Let me quote:

    Deitys and Apologies

    Hell, no. That'd be stupid. My point is that there are rules; For alignments, which apply to everyone. If it's not said they do not apply to something, then they do. Ah, I see! Now I understand what's going on! That's from the entry for Overdeities! :D Those guys are so powerful they don't...

    Deitys and Apologies

    Then would you be so kind and explain to me what in the Nine Hells I was 'misunderstanding'? Let me quote you again: Maybe if you squeezed in the phrase 'In my campaigns' somewhere, then you wouldn't have indirectly said it was. Well gee, it's not my fault you don't read my posts. But let's...

    Deitys and Apologies

    Then, what you're saying is, Good gods can commit deeds that would otherwise qualify as Neutral or Evi with no the change in alignment because... why exactly? Because you said so? You can play however you want, but unless you intend to insult me, stop phrasing your sentences like your twisted...
