[QUOTE="Whisper72, post: 5504526, member: 17339"] I wouldn't kill her. But then again, in my campaigns, races are rarely 'all evil', and good orcs, goblins etc. are also about. So the idea of a good vampire is not that strange. As long as she does not kill innocents (and really, that is not really necessary if she preys on evil beings and animals etc.), then the mere fact she is undead is not a moral problem in my campaigns (the whole idea that undeath is a mockery of life is a matter of personal taste, in the same vein, one could conclude a Golem is a mockery of life and that ticks are evil for drinking the blood of the innocent...) So, the facts are: she helped out the party using valuable resources (her spells), while she herself is on the run (so even when in trouble, she goes out of her way to help others) and risks destruction (she is already injured) to help out total strangers... In my book this means she is practically a saint. That she fed on the barbarian for getting to close, well that is the barbarian's fault. She warned him. He should have listened, the provocation is totally the barbarian's fault, not hers... So, because she was so selfless in helping out, the party should go all out to help her next. Convince the hunting party of paladins/clerics that she is not evil. Convince the druids of the same so she can go back to her home, hopefully now in harmony with the druids (so they can help eachother out), then help her hunt down and kill her (former) master to make sure she remains free willed and cannot be made into his thrall again. Seems pretty clear to me... [/QUOTE]
