He would also cut off the thumbs of enemies that he had killed so they couldn't raise arms against him in the afterlife.He was brutal, lazy, and uncomfortable with his profession of hero. The only things he cared about were himself and his adopted family of adventurers, and they told him that he had to behave.When they let him loose, though, he shined in any kind of violence or intimidation. I accidentally cost one of the other pcs their alignment when I was torturing a goblin for information and couldn't understand him. After my problem became clear, the character came to the room I had commandeered and told me that the goblin kept screaming "I don't speak common! Please, I'll tell you everything!" I made the character translate for me and apparently condoning my methods was the straw between good and neutral for him.When the law finally caught up with him for a horrible deed that he committed, the party ended up busting him out of the gladiatorial arena he had been sent to. He spent the remaining two sessions that the game ran complaining about the rescue, because inside, he was a god amongst the pink-skins and all he had to do to earn their admiration was what the party got onto him for.</blockquote>
