[QUOTE="reanjr, post: 2145158, member: 20740"] The only difference is I wouldn't have allowed the Paladin to atone. The situation would not have bothered me, except on the level that metagaming bothers me. So it would have been like: To: group From: Me So, yeah. Slitting the throat of a someone trying to silence his cohorts is mildly evil. Slitting a stoic soldier's throat because he refuses to talk in the hopes of frightening his young associate is patently evil. Letting the guy go after he talks in a dangerous area is Neutral at best. Neutral guy: good work, make sure this isn't par for the course, though, or you might be slipping. Good guys: Out of aligment, 1/4 XP. Sorry. Priest: You let the guy go, so I'm letting you off on an atonement this time. You don't get any XP. Paladin: Sorry dude, you're a fighter without bonus feats. Your mount kicks you before he leaves. (just kidding on that last part, he pokemounts out of there [on second thought, I just remembered you said 3.0, he walks away]). No XP for you, either. Perhaps you should try reading the 2nd edition Complete Paladin's Handbook for inspiration. Perhaps if you sacrifice your life, you can atone. But then you'd be dead, so what's the point? It would make a good story, though, you should look into it. [/QUOTE]
