[QUOTE="finnie, post: 5466368, member: 6669242"] So, I have been playing DnD for about 2 years( Some of you are probably like wow thats nothing, Lol) now. I have decided to do a bit of dming myself to get some experience under my belt. So where the problem comes in is this. I have no idea about how i should go about handeling this. So I have in my party. A elf ranger, human dragon shaman, Human rogue duskblade, a human Druid, and a Human Paladin. Now, I told them that there are no really big limits I put on making characters. So, my problem is this. The paladin, as a paladin in his back story gave up religion, and bases his beliefs off of his own philosophical thought, and that is how he governs his moral and justice, and all the wonderful goodness of being a lawful good character. Though the problem is. He really hasnt been acting like a lawful good character. He at one point during it, to subdue an evil sorceress. He threw down his weapons, and charged her. Grappling her, and pinning her. He then went on to punch her until she was unconscious. Then ties her up, and forces his philosophies upon her until she starts to change. He had to do this for at least 3 months before she would start to change alignment. The other incident was when they were in this town, and the mayor decided that a change was needed. He said that there was to be a new law system in town. Then a bone devil jumped into the area, and attacked the party. During the fight, the paladin instructed the ranger, to shoot an arrow at the mayor, who was still there watching the fight. Now, the mayor was not evil in any means. he was at that time being possessed by a mindflayer. So, i did not expect them to know that. Now, I have players who are complaining that he doesnt seem all that paladin like, and they are even more upset that he is going to be exalted and has started taking exalted feats, which they feel he doesnt yet qualify for. So i am asking for your guy's opinions on the matter. [/QUOTE]
