[QUOTE="Kristivas, post: 4102984, member: 34179"] I love well-played evil characters. The thief that killed and stole so that his younger brother could be brought up in the church and have a future as a paladin (what a show-down!). The Father who's child was killed, so he takes extreme measures to get revenge. The evil maiden who falls utterly in love with a man of virtue, having to keep her deeds hidden in order to keep him. The problem is the baby-eating, dog-kicking, steal-from-the-party evil characters who do things just to get ahead at the other player's expense or worse.. just to "be cool". Party meltdown is imminent with these types. Oddly enough, I played a Lawful Evil Warforged in an Eberron game. He referred to the other party members as "meatbags", "fleshlings", "diseasebags" and other fun little names that drove the other guys insane. Despite being a regular jerk, he never turned on the group and went to great lengths to save party members. Even if they were only "meatbags", they were [I]his[/I] meatbags. He was quite murderous. I based him off the droid from Knights of the Old Republic and it was a hoot to play. [/QUOTE]
