[QUOTE="danzig138, post: 3896412, member: 3595"] Who is saying they can't shine? You sound like you want others to polish their shiny rocks the same way as yours, and you seem to be moving around the repeated obvious point - maybe the poeple playing don't want to do it. Maybe the super-powerful good and wise characters are wise enough to know that they aren't the ones for the job of running the country. I don't recall anything about being good that absolutely demands you go out of your way to topple evil tyrants. Maybe the socio-political situation is such that toppling Tyrant Bob would cause some kind of domino reaction that brings the entire realm to world war? Maybe they really do have more important things to do. Maybe they aren't playing Exalted. Maybe if they were playing Exalted, and they had to run a realm, they'd moan about not getting to go smack enough monsters because they're burdened by to much responsibility. Maybe, in more people's game than you know of, the high-level characters do go make that kind of difference, and your basing your question on an unfounded assumption. Hrm. . . I think I just paraphrased all of the good answers you've already received. [/QUOTE]
