[QUOTE="Valmur_Dwur, post: 488486, member: 5065"] Yep I agree with kengar as far as what the "Detect" spells will do. Otherwise you have that same thing happen all the time since roughly 1/3 of the general populance would show as evil PLUS the real bad guys SO you have the problem of kill it if its evil reinforced by having Evil creatures go up against the pcs. On top of that you described the gypies as "about as evil as a goblin warrior". In my mind that sets off the association of kill goblins=kill anything that is like a goblin. Your intent was right in that you wanted to inject a sense of "keep your eyes open" which any party should do unless surrounded by those known to be friends, it just lead to some bad RP on the Paladin's part. If this was his first time I would have had it be a dream that the Paladin had from eating something that didn't agree with him:D And at the end of the dream before he awoke had a vision of his god telling him that tho' alot of people may be evil they aren't there to do you harm and so should be watched but don't act until Evil reveals itself for what it is. my 2 bits and a lintball :rolleyes: [/QUOTE]
