[QUOTE="Amal Shukup, post: 2020859, member: 6291"] Armed combattants aiding and abbetting child abusing Slavers? Kill them all. There are no innocents here. Also, they're reinforcing. They KNOW they're at war. And there's an ongoing DEBATE over whether murdering these slavers is a 'good thing' or not? Come ON! Any Neutral or Lawful Good character ought to gleefully accept the possibility of death in this cause. Any Paladin that didn't immediately step up and DO something ought to be stripped of their class abilities and forced to atone... Er, let's not open up THAT debate right now. But really. Slavery might be legal, but how hard is it to get help rescuing children from demonstratably abusive Slavers? Pick ANY lower class tavern (ex slaves, laborers etc). Get on a table, orate like ya mean it, ask for volunteers. Offer weapons and a share in the loot (and, you know, everlasting glory...) Sleep Spell. Silence Spell. Sneak in, wake up the eldest kids and have them keep their juniors quiet and out from underfoot. Let 'em scream and run around, even. You have difficult problems here, but keeping a bunch of zero level commoners quiet isn't really one of them. Also, 15 year olds have carried weapons into war (and died at the ends of them) since the dawn of time. It sucks (like everything else in war) but that's just the way it is. My own grandfather was only 16 when he first signed up and went to war. But no, these slaves might not be the core of a slave revolt, but it's not like bigger, tougher slaves can't be found elsewhere if need be. Ya got something more important to do besides rescuing these kids? A measley old Dragon or something? Is it a money thing? A'Mal - who would be gleefully garrotting slaver #36 right now... [/QUOTE]
