[QUOTE="Zerovoid, post: 245239, member: 283"] I've got to jump on the band wagon here. I really thought you were setting the naive player/PC up to be shocked that they were getting the services of a blind and mute slave. Obviously, a good character would be suitably horrified that they had condoned this kind of mutilation for the sake of their own petty privacy. Also, it sounds like you really forced this on the player, who tried to refuse the extra services. But you wanted to shock them, and show them how naive and ignorant they were, so you had the innkeeper insist until the player gave in. Like people have said, a good slave is very expensive and valuable, and would certainly not be thrown away on a whim. I think this might be a LN society, but the innkeeper seems CE to me. Now, I can see a very sick and twisted CE person doing this without a problem, and then trying to charge for the slave, since the PC had a blank check. But, I really don't think most people would have seen the killing come. This doesn't have to result in an alignment change, since the PC didn't know it would happen. They did however, inadvertantly commit an evil act, so if they were a Paladin, I would temporarily strip them of their powers. A better result would be the good aligned PC's giving this deranged innkeeper a beat-down. [/QUOTE]
