[QUOTE="Kobold Avenger, post: 8028129, member: 779"] I brought this up in the other thread because I feel it a better thing to debate about alignment, especially the LG alignment than Orc babies. What would a character do if they caught a poor street kid stealing food from a merchant in the city? The child is obviously quite poor impoverished and in poor health, so they are likely stealing to survive or to feed their family. The city most certainly has laws that could be harsh for the child now that they are caught, in that it could either be imprisonment or the child loses a hand. What would your character do in this situation now that they caught this little thief? I think the answer is very obvious for what a NG or CG character would do, in that they'd at least let the child go. But for LG characters this might be more of an internal conflict to them. [/QUOTE]
