We might take some risks to help one another but are not going to be altruistic.  Consider this: IRL, some pretty "evil" regimes lash out at others but generally avoid destroying themselves.  Even further, in the confines of the fantasy, devils, hobgoblins, duergar, and many others have some cooperation over long periods of time and are NOT nice.  It all comes down to player agreement and maturity.  As I get older, the fun of being a bad guy even in magic tea party land has lessened.  I root for and want to be the good guys.  Its a happy escape!But the fun we had as villainous characters can't be beat.  We still laugh (nearly 20 years later) about getting cornered in an inn and my very fat red-haired barbarian busting down a wall to escape after quaffing a potion of giant strength!  The list of antics goes on...Have fun!</blockquote>
