[QUOTE="Andor, post: 4949312, member: 1879"] I would suggest the Paladin abide by whatever laws govern prisoners/slaves where she comes from. E.G. Under the Geneva convention a military prisoner has both rights and duties. He has to give his name, rank and serial number when asked, but canot be compeled to give more than that. He can be made to work, but not to commit treason against his country. American PoWs consider themselves to be under the geneva convention whether or not the country holding them prisoner is actually a signatory. It depends on the details of the paladins culture and the circumstances of her capture. However the paladin herself ought to know what is expected of her, I would not screw her out of her paladinhood by making her guess what the right course of action is. As an aside the concept of parole covers almost any deal that can be worked out between the two parties. So if you do want to screw with the paladin she could be paroled under an agreement that she not reveal any of the Devils plots, nor attack him save in self-defense. Then when she gets home she recognizes the demons necklace on an advisor at the King's court. Now she has a Paladin alignment dilemma! Does she abide by her agreement of parole? Does she sacrifice her freedom by revealing the demon? Does she try to have her cake and eat it too by trying to defeat him without being taken prisoner again? [/QUOTE]
