[QUOTE="Dandu, post: 6268127, member: 85158"] Never put off for tomorrow what you can do today. What if a woman was Charmed and raped, but [URL="http://www.cnn.com/2011/11/23/world/meast/afghan-rape-victim/"]sex outside of marriage is a crime, with no exception for rape[/URL]? Of course, I doubt any place in your games has laws that are quite that bad (unless you're going for a place with terrible laws, in which case I could offer you some useful real life examples), but if you're not responsible for the sex you had while Charmed, you shouldn't be considered responsible for crimes committed while Charmed either, since in both cases, you have been deprived of free will and control of your body. Punishing a Charmed person makes about as much sense as Yaweh kicking out Adam and Eve for disobeying him and eating the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil; why would you punish someone who couldn't have possibly known that disobeying you was wrong? (And, if certain interpretation of the Bible are correct, [URL="http://skepticsannotatedbible.com/contra/free.html"]did not have free will in the first place[/URL].) [/QUOTE]
