[QUOTE="Tony Vargas, post: 7206087, member: 996"] It could get more interesting if it has theories about what prompts alignment changes. What if evil humans tend to find goodness in the face of great adversity, for instance, or - oh, this is awful - or in the face of truly horrific evil (the evil torturer is fine being evil while he's torturing political prisoners, but when the new Caligula type starts him torturing babies, he can't take it any more and re-examines his morality)? Yeah, our Good Villain's gotta set that up more often to give more evil humans their shot at redemption... ... So then there's the flip side of this question, what about Evil-Aligned allies (not protagonists, per se, that should be the PCs) of presumably good PCs? That I have done. Allies of convenience, obsessive evil NPCs who's obsession happens to align their interests with a PC's. LE subordinates you can keep in line, if you continue to work with them. ... [/QUOTE]
