[QUOTE="Relax, post: 6588705, member: 6793571"] I really think the fellow needs to be spoken to about what he's actually proposing. Over and over in my life I've seen people do evil acts with no actual evil intent, they just hadn't thought it through or were blinded by culture. If this player understands that he's proposing rape, has companions that are of Good alignment and continues with his plans, waking up dead one morning shouldn't be too much of a surprise. This does of course raise the question, is killing less of a crime than rape? One doesn't even need to do a comparison. I've always wanted to present my players with the morality involved with slaughtering "evil" creatures. Are Kobolds [i]actually[/i] evil, or does their intelligence level and the culture they exist in just make some other humanoids think so. Are the bogeymen of Kobold children Paladins, coming to murder their parents while they sleep, or are Kobold children as bloodthirsty and vile as their parents seem to be? I think it would be fascinating to have a game where the only truly evil beings are demons, devils and the like, while all humanoids at least are born innocent and only moulded by their environment/culture/social stature. Would at least make raiding an Orc camp a little less cut and dry... [/QUOTE]
