[QUOTE="EzekielRaiden, post: 6803620, member: 6790260"] Ouch, that sounds terrible! If it were up to me, I'd try to find you a place with one of my groups. I typically play a classic, knight in shining armor, Paladin-type character, with a much heavier emphasis on the Good than the Lawful. So I've spared vampires who promised to reform (but killed the leadership that refused to), made deals with kobolds, befriended orc tribes (even got a cool title, [I]Doomslayer[/I]), and rescued baby red dragons. I even helped sway our (Chaotic) Neutral Fighter to being (Chaotic) Good in Dungeon World--not by lecturing, which would've been tedious and boring for both of us, but by being an example. One of the best moments of the campaign was when the Fighter's player was genuinely impressed by my character volunteering for a gross and somewhat demeaning act, purely to help a party member save face and prevent a hostile response as a result. I haven't had a lot of opportunities to play that character-archetype, but it's a favorite of mine, and I've been lucky enough to have a friendly, responsive group that rolls with it--usually more by making me [I]earn[/I] the "team dad" role my characters so frequently fall into. :P Maybe that's part of the problem--how many of you high-scale guys tend to play with people that always choose Chaotic Neutral, True Neutral, or a Chaotic Good where the "Good" part seems really hard to find?
