It is a clear case of overreacting: killing someone because he insults you. If the police were to work this way, there'd be deaths every day in the city. I would not expect anything else from a prisoner who's about to be sentenced to death and carried by his capturer. If the insults really get too much for the paladin to bear, he should be in another business.As a side note, i find that this kind of reaction is often borne from a lack of immersion from the player. Because really, cutting down the guy's legs and dragging him until he dies is a gruesome act of torture and death. It's one thing to say it around a game table; quite another to do it, to be there while the helpless guy screams while your knife cuts through his flesh, to endure two days of dragging him while he pleas for mercy, suffering, bleeding. (Not that i've done that, mind you <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> ). I think that if you're able to put yourselves into the shoes of the paladin, you won't brush the idea off of ceasing that torture before you carry it out, even though it might be a fleating thought while the insults are initially pouring out of the lad's mouth.This being said, i like a lot of the suggestions that have been offerred for handling this situation. Valiantheart's list is interesting in this respect.Have fun,Sky</blockquote>
