[QUOTE="Elf Witch, post: 4165876, member: 9037"] Just because the arbitor didn't play nice nice with the paladin does not give the paladin the right to kill the guy. As I and others have said before rudeness is not a reason for a paladin to kill someone. The arbitor wanted his son the paladin didn't want to give the child to him to honor the mother's wishes. A fight happened and they killed the arbitor. Now if it was a fair fight provoked by the arbitor then why did the paladin instead of taking the baby and the body of the arbitor back to the king and explain what happened try to hide what he did. Burning the body and trying to hide the act does not sound like the acts of a paladin who thinks his actions were justified. In real life if a cop is rude to me I can't just kill him even if I am say head of one of the most powerful crime families or head of a powerful church. If I do there will be consquences. It is just stupid. I believe that when players play their pCs in a stupid way there are consquences. I will not shield them from their actions. Not every NPC they meet is going to be nice and polite to them how boring and unrealistic. I don't do it for no reason or just to mess with the players there is always a reason why an NPC would behave this way. [/QUOTE]
