Message: <blockquote data-quote="Daniel Peterson" data-source="post: 7306690" data-attributes="member: 6921367">I disagree about it not being remotely evil. Evil people look for things to exploit, and care little to nothing about others. They often trample over others to achieve a goal. They can still follow a code of conduct, set of personal rules, or even local laws. They can still respect authority even if it’s only on the outside. I view someone who is lawful evil as someone who on the surface is a law abiding citizen, or avid follower of a code of conduct, but still exploits loopholes within those systems. They do things like conspire, and manipulate. They do things like push for unjust laws to take affect so that they can benefit. I agree on the flavor and fluff. I’d rather play a character that is all fluff, and not worry about the numbers, but I have a hard time doing that, sadly. Right now I’m leaning towards a vigilante of some sorts. With a background as an urchin or secret identity for the disguise kit proficiency and a history of being sold from master to master eventually being the slave of a Noble in Neverwinter. That noble had me trained as a sort of contract killer and when I escaped I took on the motive of Wrath, or vengeance, on all evil. I have a tendency to endanger the innocent because of my focus on rooting out all evil. I typically kill, and rarely offer redemption. Right now I’m a level 3 rogue with the swashbuckler archetype and I’ve seriously considered the rest be bard for the magical aspect. I think college of whispers would be a nice fit fluff wise and considered to refluff the steal shadow aspect into stealing souls to mimic Tsang Tsung. Because I’ve always been a trapper and such I really only took swashbuckler for the expertise in trapping, but the nearly always sneak attack, and charisma to initiative fits very well since I think psychic blades stacks with sneak attack essentially making a level 5 rogue / 15 bard capable of dealing the same damage as a 20 rogue as long as it’s not an enemy immune or resistant to psychic and sneak attack.What are your thoughts?</blockquote>
