[QUOTE="Oofta, post: 9312534, member: 6801845"] Given that alignment is only part of the picture, one descriptor of many and that motivation/situation/background and many other factors could change things. First, I think there would be some commonalities. The good alignments would likely stop the thief and ask them if they needed help, is there something the fighter can help with? LG: Would stop the thief and talk to them. They're not going to let the thief take whatever it was, but may buy it for them NG: Let the thief know I saw them, give them a chance to make it right. CG: depends on if I think the storeowner is ripping people off or is also struggling. The former, help the guy get away, the latter, tell the thief to stop or I'll make them stop. LN: Stop the thief, they're breaking the law. TN: does it affect me? No? Then do nothing. CN: Would it be more interesting to make a scene or to distract the store owner? LE: The thief needs to be punished and learn his proper place. NE: How can I turn this to my advantage? Follow the thief and threaten to turn them in, adding in a more valuable item I stole. CE: Call out the thief loudly so I can loot the store more effectively. Or just burn the place down if I can blame the thief. [/QUOTE]
