[QUOTE="delericho, post: 3842402, member: 22424"] Check out the Kingpriest of Istar in Dragonlance for an example of exactly what you're proposing. As with others, I have to say that when LG "goes to far" it slides first into LN and then LE. But that's fine, since the transitions will tend to be slow, and will tend to go unnoticed by those watching. Indeed, many of your villains will probably be surprised when they are confronted with their evil deeds. Some ideas: Clerics will scan people at random with Detect Evil. Anyone who pings as Evil is executed summarily. Of course, no-one watches the watchers... Entire races are declared as being inherently Evil. First on the chopping block are the 'obvious' Orcs and Goblinoids. Of course, then the authorities make the mistake of conflating Chaos and Evil, and start a pogrom against the Elves. That they then resist just 'proves' their corrupt natures. "For the good of everyone", adventurers are licensed. "For the good of everyone", alcohol is banned. That should get the PCs taking action.
