[QUOTE="Null Boundry, post: 1193556, member: 14688"] I have never had a problem with a DM deciding that we can only play good (or evil) charecters. If thats the way the game is going to be run then I trust him to make it enjoyable. If its not then I'll stop playing, there is no loss its only a game. I can stop playing and still remain friends with the DM and be invited back to another session. One problem I do have is if being when having to play a good charecter being told that under no circumstances can you commit an evil or dishonourable act. A few years ago in the campaign of good guys an orc was taken prisoner, no we knew this guy was a nasty peice of work, he was part of a warband that had slaughtered several villages we had come across. He had been found asleep and the ranger wasn't allowed to kill him in his sleep because it was evil. To kill him when he was awake was evil and so on. It was several weeks to the next secure settlement with some form of law and order to conduct a trial and the rest of his mates were out there. No idea what we were meant to do with him but whoops the rope slipped from my hands whilst we were carrying him across a gorge. [/QUOTE]
