[QUOTE="ThoughtBubble, post: 1541386, member: 9723"] I third this notion. Obviously now, there's some smiting that needs to be done, and some asking for forgiveness afterwards. But I wouldn't see any zapping of abilities until he has a chance to knowingly screw up. Set the stage when it becomes obvious that some small part of this state of affairs is due to his actions. Does he refuse to do what he can to fix the problem? Then start makng him feel it. Personally, I'd reccomend that, if he refuses to fix the problem, start a slow leech of his abilities. Maybe all his spells are cast at one caster level lower. Maybe he loses LOH. Make it an obvious slap, but not a complete one. Hm... Maybe describe how, when he finds out, he suffers an intense loss in his confidence and judgement, then swipe his +cha to saves. Have it eat at his minds as he dreams and preys (there go his spells). Is it too late to set things up to try and give the Paladin a chance to stop the zombiefication? Oh, and [U]WHY[/U] exactly did the girl's father turn her into a zombie? Now, the usual question: Is this player usually problematic in how he plays a paladin? Does his past actions and history warrent punishment? [/QUOTE]
