My character was first level when she picked up the daggers and if the curse had gone off then I would have been fine with the fallout. Its not so much the curse that bothers me its what is happening now.The session before last the rogue picked up a clawed weapon that detected as magic. As soon as he picked it up it gave him shocking damage. Then the cleric detected evil on it and found out it was evil so now we had the dilema of how to handle it. We just didn't want to leave it  for some evil creature to find and use. The cleric tried to pick it with a cloth and took damage. The DMs ruling that cloth dose not stop your aligment from showing. So we stood around trying to figure out what to do for a long time. We ended up just spinning our wheels noone could come up with a way to accomplish the task.  So since I am the only neutrul character in the party I went over and picked it up and shoved it in my backpack until we could find away to destroy it. I role play the my character has a darkness in her that she is always fighting.  My decsion was based on two things one a role playing decison that my character has a slight evil streak in her and that might protect her from the weapon and a metagame reason in that I knew that being neutrul I would not get shocked by the weapon.My action caused a storm of rebukes from two of the party on how I am reckless and dangerous and can't be trusted because first the daggers and now this. That even when I am warned that something is dangerous I don't listen blah blah blah. And that if I did it again or anything like it then I would be asked to leave the group my PC not me the player. It didn't seem to matter that I solved the problem. Because they are role playing their characters and their characters don't trust mine anymore because of the daggers. Its gets old and I am tired of it. Its all based on the fact that I handled the daggers after I learned they were cursed. Which I would never have done if I had not be handling the daggers for months. Believe me I would never have hanled them in the first place if I had known there was a curse.</blockquote>
