[QUOTE="Sunseeker, post: 7220107"] I have a more important question: why is he doing good? He was raised on the streets (not the best place to grow up with good morals or be taught how to live a righteous life). Then he served as a liaison to the royal court, a place that is typically full of intrigue and wealthy, powerful people with a dim view of morality. He faced constant prejudice for just [I]existing[/I] to the point that someone mutilated his body (cut off his tail) and then he was framed for something terrible. If you can't choose between being framed for a horrible crime and his family being murdered, why not both! After all his family likely garnered some very real hatred from the other nobles for his adoption, so someone up and had them killed just to blame him. I mean, this guy must have a heart of freaking GOLD PLATED LATINUM to still see the good in others after that. Personally, I'd be inclined to go Oath of Vengeance for RP reasons. This guy has had it up to his eyeballs with people treating him like dung for what, his [I]entire life[/I]? To the point where they had to destroy the [I]one good thing[/I] that happened to him for no reason other than spite and malice. He may not be out for everyone's blood, but I think he'd be very much out for [I]very specific[/I] people's blood. As an alternative playing with this theme, a member of House Ziatorm fooled around with a tiefling lady and has a legitimate heir in the OP's PC, when they found out about this son, they "adopted" him as a "hey look at us we're so noble and kind to raise up this poor little demon-kid!" which was of course, cover for the family bringing in the child close to keep an eye on him and make sure he didn't find out about his own lineage and thus attempt to make a claim for noble status. ...a claim that, if his parents were dead, he would now have. A claim that other noble houses were not aware of when they conspired to have his parents murdered for the audacity of subjecting the other Nobles to having to be around and interact with demon-boy.
