[QUOTE="pennywiz, post: 811022, member: 1488"] In my current campaign (in which I am the DM) a player has been building a LN Wizard up from the first level and now is tenth. One of the main things he has been striving to do is establish his own homebase outside of the main Kingdom of Chelrube so that he can have some autonomy. I didn't realize what he had planned and now regret setting up situations so that he can achieve his goals. What he's basically done is this: Cleaned up a frontier town that is outside of the borders of the kingdom, hired a 'police force' with money that he has been hoarding, and start to write laws to rule the town and nearby environs. The problem is that some of the laws are just weird, or kind of a joke. He maintains that as long as he is in charge of the town and writing the laws that he isn't violating his alignment but I think some of what he is doing skirts the line of Chaotic and most certainly moves him into the area of being evil. Lots of the laws call for summary execution at the hands of his 'police force' (made up primarily of ex-convicts and outlaws from the kingdom) and others force people into slavery. I'm trying to find a way to back off allowing this without sounding like a bad DM. Any advice? [/QUOTE]
