[QUOTE="Celtavian, post: 473148, member: 5834"] [b]Re[/b] You're chaotic good. I don't see what you did as evil. Now, you are a follower of Tempus, so hitting him while charmed and in the back was against the teachings of Tempus. Tempus preaches strongly about honorable battle. You failed to give the evil priest honorable battle which is against the teachings of your god. Also, If you kill someone, it is not always evil. Sometimes killing someone is a good thing that will help the world and the killing itself is not grey, it is good, period. If you slay a priest of an evil god who does evil to others in the world, you did a good act. This may not have been the most honorable act, but it was not evil. It was a good act that ended the life of an evil priest. I laugh at those who think such a priest should receive a fair trial. You folks are too damn lawful. A trial is lawful, but it is not justice. It is merely a lawful process. I am quite sure that this evil priest was not someone they caught hanging out at the local tavern who was rumored to be an evil priest. He was an evil priest probably doing evil activities in some hidden temple where all kinds of despicable acts were carried out. He also probably cast evil magic. Good riddance to the scum bag. As I said, the only thing he did wrong was not give the evil priest an honorable death in battle per the dogma of Tempus. Other than that, I see nothing wrong with a chaotic good character killing an evil priest anyway he so chooses. Heck, he could have poisoned him for all I care. Killing an evil priest is and always shall be a good act. Celebrim, If a person did some of the things these evil villains in D and D do, especially the ones who worship evil gods, you bet I would kill them without a second thought. Hell, if I had my way, I would do in alot of the people we jail now such as serial killers and just about any child molester/rapist, mass murderer, terrorists, slavers and other people who commit crimes so vile that they deserve to die. I would be just as comfortable allowing them a chance to repent to whatever god they pray to before they were killed. This is much better solution to me than letting them go to prison where they might possibly escape with the help of fellow cult members or godly or arcane magic. In fact, I often dispose of the bodies of major villain NPC's in a manner that ensures it will be no easy task to bring them back. I dump them in rivers or summon creatures to eat the corpse. If they are disintregated, I sweep up the little pile of dust and make sure to deposit it in strange places as I go. I like making sure the dead remain dead. [/QUOTE]
