Message: <blockquote data-quote="Decamber" data-source="post: 248771" data-attributes="member: 438">Thanks for the replies, all of you! I've come up with one more question now:As Darkchylde said, Ilmater's dogma includes "stand up to all tyrants, and allow no injustice to go unchallenged", as well as "help all who hurt, no matter who they are". Last gaming session, I was in a problematic situation...There was a man who we caught with a waggon with slaves. The man was of non-evil alignment; two out of four slaves were evil. The man (let's call him Anders) had bought the two evil slaves in a country where they by court had got the punishment to be slaves, so according to the law Anders hadn't done anything illegal. However, where we found Anders was in another country, where slavery is illegal, so therefor he had done something illegal. And my paladin thinks that slavery is evil. We talked with Anders, and as we said we had to take him to the guards, he begged for his life that we should let him go, and the only reason why he had bought the slaves was to sell them and earn money to support his family. (He invested in slaves, that is. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />)What would be the most appropriate thing for my paladin to do? Remember the dogma: "stand up to all tyrants, and allow no injustice to go unchellanged" - Anders had done something illegal in (in my character's point of view) evil; and "help all who hurt, no matter who they are" - Anders couldn't support his wife and children, and his general alignment wasn't evil.Thank you!</blockquote>
