[QUOTE="drothgery, post: 2927229, member: 360"] Well, since there wasn't a "my PCs stay out" note on the thread, and it's my Silver Pyromancer (who's not an Exalted character, and so could arguably be living under different rules regarding his Pyromancer abilities -- he needs to stay Lawful Good and stay within the bounds of the ideals of a Knight Militiant of the Silver Flame; it's a lot easier to argue for a Fireball first and ask questions later mentality from that perspective -- but I don't think he should get off any easier than the others do). A few things here -- I didn't have any idea the trolls were any different until informed of such out of character; I thought the leather masks were simply a mark of leadership (I'm pretty sure that I'd used [I]detect magic[/I] on places where we'd fought trolls earlier, and got nothing), and the one group that retreated did so for tactical reasons. Almost everything we'd seen in this place had attacked us on sight, excepting a demon that briefly tried to disguise himself as a celestial and one prisoner; at that point we would have cheefully destroyed the spire and everything in it if we'd had the means to do so. I don't think we would have acted much differently if we had detected evil (and failed to detect any evil), other than not trying to use some anti-evil abilities (should you know that these aren't working?); we've fought a fair number of neutral monsters before.
