Strict adherance to the rules and laws. All of 'em. Will be very hard on the palladins.Example : Anyone caught thieving will lose the thieving hand. Very common. But what if a hungry 3-year old steals a loaf of bread and gets caught. According to the law, the kiddie will lose his hand....This could be a ploy of a group of devils, working behind the scenes, and slowly twisting the laws, making 'em more and more oppressive. This could lead to extremes. And there will be a lot of people who display the most vile of all evils : apathie. They won't care. It's not them loosing the hand. They will use more and more excuses to look the other way. Good people, common people, supporting the system by not caring. The jailor of the three year old, knowing what will happen, will go home after his shift, kiss his wife and play with his children in the evening sun. He doesn't consider himself evil. He goes to mass every godsday. He might even consider what happens to the child a punishment from God, because if God didn't want this child punished, he wouldn't have allowed the child to go hungry in the first place. Or the child could belong to some minority group, and evryone knows they can't be trusted. The kid would probably grow up to be a thief and a rapist. He's keeping the future of his children safe by jailing the little sod. This might not be a very comfortable theme though, depends on your group. Hey, and as a bonus, you don't even need the devils to instigate all this. It's happening evrywhere all by itself <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/laugh.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing    :lol:" data-shortname=":lol:" /> . Or is this not the droid you're looking for?</blockquote>
