The pantheon of Krynn, for example, is kinda asking for it, what with the whole cosmology of balance, and having as many evil gods as good or neutral ones. Why are the evil gods there, if not to be worshipped?Gods like Takhisis promise power, and that's enough for some (many) people; I'm not sure that's so hard to relate to. I'm actually not that up on Krynn's cosmology, but, which gods unleashed the Cataclysm? A lot of gamers think the Cataclysm was an evil act - what if an evil character became convinced (even wrongly) that the Cataclysm was the doing of the good and neutral gods? That would seem to be a pretty good excuse to side with the evil gods.If the real world is any guide, pretty much all evil people see themselves as good, and always have. 'Course, all of this feeds back into the point you made in your next paragraph.Another evil campaign? Muhahahaha! Thanks, I'll have to check it out.Edit: you sure it isn't Villains by Necessity? I'm getting search hits for that, but not Evil by Necessity.Edit2: no, looks like VbN is a novel.Well, aside from "Evil with a Point" where a character kind of has to be Evil, I prefer evil characters; people who are willing to do anything to achieve their goals, but don't get their rocks off that way, otherwise.I saw that somewhere recently, and thought it was a really good idea for a campaign/setting. Has Marvel or DC done a big event recently based on this idea?</blockquote>
