[QUOTE="friar_zero, post: 5153341, member: 89360"] I can imagine a few scenarios where even a paladin could be successfully falsely convicted. If this is in a provincial area of Al-Haz then the local magistrate might be anti-magic and take my abilities to actually be magic and thus evil. There are, at least in the 4th edition book, groups of violently anti-magic Shi'ites in Al-Haz. I am a dwarf convert and humans might not take well to that, they might even take it to be an affront. A particularly racist (or specist) judge would dismiss my holy abilities as magical tricks used to fool the faithful. Al-Haz is also a heavily Shi'ite area and my character is Sunni so there could be an additional incentive to see me convicted. I think it would be more fun if we were all sort of in the same boat together. There will be plenty to divide us already, it seems, without one viewing all the others as criminals. But I think I could make the volunteer angle work if that's how you would rather set it up. [/QUOTE]
