[QUOTE="Mort, post: 8573791, member: 762"] I have an acquaintance who breads Bengal cats, which means she keeps servals at her cat farm. One of the servals got mad that she (my acquaintance) was paying too much attention to another serval, and with one swipe broke her (acquaintance's) nose. Servals are decent size but weight only about 10% of the average tiger. I'd hate to see what a jealous tiger would have done! And that's the point, sure animate dead provides for control, but control can go away - and then a mean, evil serial killer is released of the leash! Can a see a society (or even just group) that uses the undead and has all sorts of safeguards in place to ensure the undead stay controlled? Sure, could be very interesting. But I'll bet rule #1 in that society is control your undead at all times, failure to do so is on you and punishable accordingly. And even then, if it were standard issue undead, I'd still have trouble seeing the group as "good." [/QUOTE]
