[QUOTE="Byronic, post: 4656396, member: 56829"] I think perhaps the best lesson is to simply use the DnD system to do what you want it to do. Sometimes you need absolute evil to have a nice simple hack 'n slash game. Sometimes you can have a more philosophical game where you play with the question "who and what is evil". A setting that I'm designing right now has no innate good or evil, since I believe that either requires intent. What is good and what is evil is decided by races that care for such things, for example humans who are a race of Choices. On the other hand some other races have totally different ways of looking at things. Like Eldarin, weren't they supposed to be amoral and fickle (at least they were in the previews)? Why would they care about questions of Good and Evil? My game is about the Heroes Journey, as they leave their homes and go out into the world they shall find out who they are and what they want in life. [/QUOTE]
