[QUOTE="randrak, post: 6938034, member: 6806492"] I hate the "gotcha" term so much. No, it was not set up as a gotcha. The witch isn't good, she's a neutral character with some morals. She seeks power through the use of souls, but is morally correct enough to not use souls of innocent people, thus she searches for evil ones. She is also not overpowered, she would be a hard encounter in a straight fight, yes...but nothing they can't handle with a bit of luck. They have roleplayed in my campaign setting for a long time and it has been stated time and again, a witch is simply a female warlock (in this setting at least) and not necessarily evil. A hag is usually the evil witch archtype but I always make a distinction. A witch/warlock has always been the same as a wizard, can be good or bad or neutral. Also a quick update: While the paladin player accepted what happened and is looking forward to solving the issue, the wizard player doesn't want to deal with the consequences so he wants to reroll a new character and told the paladin to fix the issue herself.
