[QUOTE="green slime, post: 2976127, member: 1325"] I like that this works for you, and that you state it clearly. I make it clear, IMC, that it is easy to slide to evil, but that the road to redemption is hard. Harbouring evil thoughts is evil. The armies of Evil are legion, the champions of good few and far between. It isn't enough to pretend to be good, want to be good, or even do the odd good deed now and then. Being good is [b]hard[/b]. Evil tempts you. It doesn't appear before you asking you to stab a child in the heart on the first date... You don't [b]need[/b] to help those beggars. They aren't worth your time. You need your money. Hoard it. Evil wants you to care more about you than others. It wants you to put yourself first. You need your slaves. You deserve to indulge yourself. You earned the right. You're smarter than they are. Conceit, Self-Indulgence, Sloth, Greed. Then, in order to maintain this lifestyle, you should punish that lazy slave. Set an example. Why be polite? Swear and Curse, Kick the beggar, so he moves out of your way. Spend that money on fine clothes, look at yourself! Cheat on those foolish enough to fall for your tricks. The foolish deserve what they get. Clean the streets of those beggars. Put them in squalid barracks. Make them can work for their upkeep. Acquire sex slaves. Abuse those in lesser stations. Remove rivals for political favours by spreading rumours and innuendo. Order assassinations against those that displease you. Use drugs and stimulants. You could regain youth, if you just perform this small ritual. No one will ever miss a bastard child of some beggar... [/QUOTE]
