This is presuming the raise dead rules are being used more or less as is from the Player's Handbook and can essentially be done without owing cosmic favors to any deities or anything funky like that. Sure, it's a safe bet that the cleric or Shar herself would want something out of the PC's, but that's the act that I would count as a strike against the PC's, not the resurrection itself. Of course, it occurs to me now that the Forgotten Realms does have a few differences with the way raising the dead normally works, at least I seem to recall that, but it's been a while since I'd read them. Besides, outside of house rules, only a paladin has to worry about one alignment transgression. I wouldn't consider the resurrection to be evil in any way, but even if it were, it's not exactly going to change the clerics or druids alignment right away. So, under any number of circumstances, I probably wouldn't do much of anything to the PC's. It would probably be a bad thing, sure - but that's only because the attention of nasty things has been gained.</blockquote>
