[QUOTE="JiffyPopTart, post: 4457260, member: 4881"] This sounds exactly like the actions I took with my new 4e paladin recently. I have styled my character to be similar to Russell Crowes character in LA Confidential, only instead of being an LA cop, I was a paladin of Tyr. We went in a very seedy and dangerous bar on the wrong side of town looking for a person. The inhabitants (some of which were corrupt town guard) ambushed us, even though we hadn't drawn swords. At the end of the fight the BBEG got away and one of his cronies (the bartender who was a noncombatant) was the only person left in the place. I grabbed him and tied him down to one of the tables in the dining room. When he didn't cough up the info I was questioning him on, I grabbed a kitchen knife and drove it in his leg. When he STILL didn't cough up the info I wanted, I set the building on fire and left him to find his own way out. I am playing my guy as having a really really bad temper switch, that once its flipped he get a little bloodthirsty until he calms down. He had already been sent to Hills Edge from Waterdeep to cover up a scandal involving his sisters missing fiancee (following discovery of domestic violence). Its something different from the traditional goody-goody paladin mold of the past, and I LOVE IT. I do plan on him treading the dark side for most of his career, and depending on how the campaign goes, he may just slide on over in his quest to rid the world of corruption. DS [/QUOTE]
