[QUOTE="Flamestrike, post: 7960877, member: 6788736"] It doesn't matter if your victim is evilly aligned, good aligned or neutrally aligned. Their alignment has nothing to do with it. The question is 'does the intended victim pose me (or someone else) an immediate threat of violence, and is the force I am using proportionate to that threat?' In this case, the victim was lying on the ground badly wounded and unconscious. Hitting them with vampiric touch, shooting them in the head with a gun, or bashing their skull in with a hammer was clearly evil, regardless of the alignment of the victim. Good on them. They can be LE aligned like Bronson was in that movie. Or like the Punisher is. I would unequivocally say yes. There are no Good aligned deities of Murder that I know of. The only Good deities that advocate violence (Torm, Tyr, Moradin, Corellion etc) certainly dont advocate murdering a helpless person, even if they are 'evil'. You cant kill an outsider on the material plane. You simply banish it back to its own plane. If the outsider is not dead, it's not murder. You're just sending it home. [/QUOTE]
