Not exactly good behavior, but fairly consistant with their character ideas and the setting.  Although it did send my wife's character into soem degree fo shock, she had never actually killed anyone before.If you do ditch the system and are still using various "Detect" spells or classes with alignment restrictions you will need to do soem adjusting.  Detect spells should still work, but probablly only on creatures or items with Good, Evil, Etc. subtypes.  If the class has alignment restrictions think of some aspect of game play behavior that reflects that.  Give the Paladin and Monk religous vows for example.</blockquote>
