[QUOTE="trimeulose, post: 150783, member: 1527"] [b]decptive, seductive, manipulative[/b] If your DM plans on running an evil campaign, expect there to be punishments. That being said avoid the punishments. Don't fall into any traps that the DM might lay for you. The thing about evil people is that they all have a goal. You must have one too. If your DM tries to influence you with this goal I'ld make sure that you can see the fruition of your plan. Unless you are CE don't die trying. The best way to avoid falling into traps is to purposefully go the other way when in the prescence of others. i.e. be diplomatic to royalty and nobility, regard the "lessers" with respect, and treat women with a suaveness. (if you are a guy) Evil women should pretend to be evil pretending to be good, in other words have a seductive humor about their evilness. When in private with just your PC's truly let out your evilness. Show them the most sure fire way for everyone to achieve their goals. Speak softly when doing this or prying ears may hear them. Make it seem like you are a neutral character trying to fit in with evil characters. Never suggest "original" evil ideas. The ideas should be yours, but you should encourage others to speak first so that your ideas seem to be theirs rather than yours. Collect poison and lots of it. The best thing that you can ever do is to have poison on the ready for assasination attempts. Not only do they work well in combat, but they make for great concealed weapons. When using poisons make sure that you befriend who you are poisoning, and then try to place blame elsewhere preferably someone who stands in your way. When Confronted by the policia, make sure that you shake off any and all blame. Don't shake it off onto your friends. If you must I would only shake it off onto one of them. Be unwilling about it, try to convince the police that it's thier idea. For inspiration watch the afformentioned "The Usuall Suspects". By far the best thing you can do is to manipulate. It will be long and involved, but if you can get an enemy to risk his/her life to accomplish your goals, all the better. D'jviek K'shar [/QUOTE]
