[QUOTE="Tectuktitlay, post: 6820868, member: 82812"] Well, in my opinion not healing characters that are doing things that could royally screw with the party is trying to nudge them to play nice. I don't think that's actively undermining them, but it is letting them know that they need to be team players or, well...they won't be treated like team players? Because desecrating a sanctified body like that? If the people who actually did the sanctifying SAW them desecrate the body? Or heard about it later? That could be incredibly dangerous for the party as a whole, not just for the two who insisted, even after being warned it was a bad idea. And there are beings in fantasy worlds that will test adventurers for exactly this sort of behavior. That corpse could have been one of the fair folk in disguise, seeing if your group is worthy, or if they are yet another band of rabble who will instead be guided out of the area, or who will "simply" be in bad graces with the Seelie and/or Unseelie Court. And that...would be bad. Potentially risky behavior for minimal gain, like graverobbing or desecrating sanctified bodies? That's far more dangerous to the group than not healing those who insist on acting like that even when told by a holy man to please not do so. Just my opinion. [/QUOTE]
