[QUOTE="entrerix, post: 4297130, member: 61562"] anyone who has never played a campaign where the PC's are evil villains doing everything in their nefarious power to thwart the schemes of another, competing group of evil villains is really missing out on a ton of fun. My players rarely play neutral or good PCs, they want to be villains for most games we play and it works really well instead of raiding the dungeon to kill the kobolds, they go through the dungeon capturing, torturing, and subjugating until they dominate the tribe and then use it to their own end - like raiding supply caravans to silverymoon so that further down the line they can challenge the ultimate enemy of the game, Alustriel etc Or playing a game where the PC's goal is to gain power so that they can overthrow an evil god and take his place, so they are seeking out and destroying the followers of that god wherever they can (or their might be a prophecy where one of the PCs was foretold to overthrow said god, and so evil god sends assassins and whatnot to prevent the prophecy from occurring) lots of fun stuff, and I'm really surprised that some people think EVIL is for NPCs only... a little too narrow minded for my taste I'm assuming they left out the fun evil PC stuff so they can make a book dedicated to being bad, where the necromancer and other such classes might make an appearance [/QUOTE]
