[QUOTE="Demonspell, post: 6757010, member: 6792769"] I never punish my players, I react to their actions, and nothing more. I agree with this; however,… You certainly can judge another’s beliefs, and you should expect them to judge yours. I totally agree, the only way to uphold your alignment is to be true to your character’s beliefs. I totally disagree with this statement. Everything has absolute value based on the perception of the individual viewing it. No, I have told my players to be true to their character’s beliefs, and understand that not everyone holds your beliefs. Just because one society has a different perspective doesn’t mean that society is lawless, and evil, it’s only lawless from your perspective and those drow believe you are lawless and evil. Not really, they aren’t foolish or wrong, they are correct from their perspective. Others may not agree with them, and that is OK, because the master of the universe has decreed that is the way it should be. Finally, the universe will only punish or reward them based on how they attempt to enforce their beliefs on others. If they choose not to force the drow to change their ways, the Drow, the universe (and its master) really don't care; however, if they decide to ram their beliefs down the throat of the drow and end their human sacrificial, slave mongering, rape enforcing ways, then the Drow may have a problem with it, but the universe (and its master) really won’t give one iota of concern.
