[QUOTE="Nifft, post: 1593681, member: 6562"] The [Evil]-ness of Assassins is a DM-specific issue, and I wouldn't presume to start that fire fight here. :) However, I'd probably allow it for Neutral Rangers, or any alignment so long as the poison use wasn't "abused" -- alignment being the RESULT of actions, not a straight-jacket that SPECIFIES actions. For example, using poison on an evil poisonous monster -> perfectly fine "good" use. Using poison in melee on a foe who knows that you are using poison -> perfectly fine "neutral" use. Using poison to snipe into a crowd when you don't have Improved Precise Shot -> closing in on "evil". Poisoning the well of a village to kill one guy -> that's "evil". -- N [/QUOTE]
