[QUOTE="Maxperson, post: 8468940, member: 23751"] Cure spells have no business being evocation. They should be necromancy like they used to be and deal with the body. Depends on where they come from. The game doesn't spell it out, so it's up to the DM whether they're just pulled from their dinner somewhere and enslaved, or if some god(s) of magic make deals with monsters to be on call and get paid for it. One way is evil and the other is not. This is no different than evocation. If you're using phantasmal killer to harm someone, it depends on the justifications. If you're hiding the opening of where the party is resting so you that you can be safer, it's not at all evil. And again, are you trying to steal thoughts from an innocent, or locate a kidnapped kid? Magic, with the exception of some necromancy spells and perhaps conjuration(depending on how the DM runs it), is not inherently good or evil. It's a tool to be used for good, evil or neither.
