[QUOTE="Sandain, post: 3460567, member: 19306"] This could be his motivation for your halfling, and how he explains himself to your PC's. He is not Human, he is not a different race, he is a completely different species! Does a cow care if a sheep dies? Would a Lion kill 100 humans to free Africa of them? Would a Killer whale kill 100 humans to free the oceans? Would the Lion and Whale even be evil for doing so considering the persecution of thier kind? To take my example further - think of all the conquered nations in the past, and indigenous people who have risen up and fought for thier freedom. Was Mel Gibson in Braveheart evil? If he could sacrifice 100 englishman to free Scotland and create a free Scotland for his kin - bet your bottom dollar he would have done it. So, in my view your Halfling does not even have to be evil to contemplate this sacrifice. he could justify it that if it came to a war many thousands would die and suffer. [/QUOTE]
