Message: <blockquote data-quote="Archon" data-source="post: 1992117" data-attributes="member: 17082">you mentioned what i was just about to.Maybe LG isn't the best alignment for a bodyguard. LN buy it's nature lends itself to a soldier who follows orders, maybe not zealously, but without asking questions. Now, i like your checks and balances so far, it seems fair. As far as the Phoenix Shield goes the bottom line is that they need to be professionals. They need to be trained not just to protect but to kill. They have to be able to not just "re-"act but to "act". They need to be able to kill. Now, being lawful good doesn't keep you from being able to kill, it just means that when you do you need a good reason. Alignment is a sticky subject. I believe a bodyguard could easily be lawful good and be able to kill in the name of protection. SO, what should our guys be...LG ensures dedication, devotion and honor. NG and CG offer differnet ways of handling situations and gives us flexibility but also add an element of instability. In conclussion i think that the Phoenix Shield should be a pillar and it should portray a feeling of security not just physically but mentally. I'm sticking with my original statment. They should be LG BUT they would take orders from the queen, just like everybody else. Now, should they serve the Individual or the Throne?The Throne. In case of corruption they would become the Kingdoms first failsafe. The kingdom comes first. If the ruler falters, another can be found.</blockquote>
