[QUOTE="SuperJebba, post: 5668234, member: 6668470"] The evil character definitely did something wrong. Allow me to explain the situation a bit more in depth. The swordsage (SS) was in the tavern eating lunch. The door to tavern was kicked open and there stood the paladin. I described him as "looking crazed. His normally polished armor is splattered with dirt and gore. He has a bloody bandage wrapped around his head and a giant gash across his face where his eye once was." Then he "stormed over to the SS, grabbed the SS by the shirt and threw him onto the table." And then this is more or less what he said, "What did you do?! I know you're an evil b*****, but I didn't think you would ever do something like this!" The SS used a maneuver and teleported behind the paladin and held a sword to the back of his neck and said, "What are you talking about?" The paladin retorted with, "I don't care what you do to me! I can't believe you did this and now they're gone! You b******!" At this point, the SS decided to kill the paladin because he had no idea what the paladin was talking about and the paladin was continuing to yell at him. The paladin was already at -1 HP. Why was he still walking around and shouting and bleeding then you ask? I ruled that he was running on sheer rage and adrenaline because he had lost his brother and his newly recruited cohort while closing the abyssal gate, and in his mind, the SS was responsible. After he was done ranting at the SS, he was going to fall over unconscious. After the SS killed the paladin, he sat back down at his table and finished his lunch. So, yes, the SS was in the wrong. The paladin never once threatened him with his words. Techinically, he attacked him, but I didn't have anyone make any rolls or anything like that. This was strictly an RP encounter to continue building animosity between the groups. I would also like to add that while I appreciate the advice and supportive words of those saying I shouldn't DM for this group, mentioning that I hate evil groups was not meant solicit sympathy. I merely mentioned it because I felt like I was overreacting to the situation as I was ready to have a solar come down and kick the crap out of the SS. From the responses, though, it seems I wouldn't be that far out of line having something like this happen. [/QUOTE]
