[QUOTE="Flamestrike, post: 7977421, member: 6788736"] Dont stress. Look man, I personally wouldnt play in a game where the DM tried to pigeonhole torture and genocide as 'morally good' because 'its the middle ages and those things were morally good back then' and if you didnt engage in those practices 'you were a fool'. Id certainly quit such a game if placed in some kind of binary dichotomy where my LG Paladin was made to either A) engage in genocide or B) be stripped of command, oulawed and reviled [unless such orders and outlawry came from an Evil Lord, in which case that could be kind of fun, if worked into the story with my character overthrowing said evil lord, and bringing peace and redemption arc]. We're just talking different languages here. My view is genocide, rape, murder, slavery and torture are evil. They were just as evil 1000 years ago, as they will be in another 1000 years from now, and they are just as evil when I see or read about them in fiction, or see a depiction of a protagonist doing them. That protagonist (in my eyes) is now, evil. You have a different view. We aint gonna see eye to eye here. [/QUOTE]
