[QUOTE="painandgreed, post: 2361513, member: 24969"] I had one character that was a paladin but had a split personality as an evil theif. It never really came into play though and I dumped the character. In the same game, I had an character that basically sold out to the other side. The BBEG showed up and made me an offer and I took it, one of the '12 swords of power' and the head of his wizard servant that had killed our paladin (and left me in charge of the party). In return, I would surrender to him when the time came as I was currently acting as commander in cheif of the allied armies fighting his own. We would coreograph our battles where I did really well till one startleing defeat that turned the tide of the war. Even then, I managed to save the army from total destruction to a mere rout. Eventually, it was revealed that the 'good king' was actually a legendary lich in disguise (Lothrim from Harn) and we teamed up to put him down only to be beat ragged and have to 'surrender' after the fight. Even then I had an amulet that protected my thoughts and used to dress in a completly different outfit (helmeted and never revealed my face) and gear using a mirror of mental prowness to play out the role of an adventurer in the BBEG's army also. Although I had sold out I still worried the BBEG as he couldn't read my thoughts or detect what I was up to and I had kept the skull of the lich. The rest of the party never found out that their party leader was working with who they thought was the main bad guy for most of the campaign. I kept them safe and rich by exploring dungeons that had no political value. [/QUOTE]
