[QUOTE="Darkness, post: 453761, member: 13"] By the way... Does it even [i]matter[/i] whether it was evil or not? A girl was kidnapped and has died. And the local watch certainly [i]isn't[/i] interested in moral questions, but rather in bringing the the criminals to justice: It clearly was an un[i]lawful[/i] act, which ought to be [i]all[/i] they care about, barring extraordinary circumstances). After all, [i]who[/i] will get arrested and punished: The Evil nobleman who, even though he abuses those beneath him in station in various ways, acts according to the law, or the peasant (regardless whether he's Good, Neutral, or Evil) who kills the king's deer so he can feed his family (possibly even because the aforementioned noble is taxing him so heavily that he couldn't get by otherwise)? Thus, it's probably best to first see whether the campaign continues [i]and[/i] whether the PCs can survive before debating the relative lack of merits of their preceding actions. :p And [b]Tsyr[/b]: I haven't read all posts of this thread, but in those of yours that I read, it seems as though you consider kidnapping inherently evil. If so, please define what [i]you[/i] think "kidnapping" is, so I can see whether or not I agree with you. ;) [/QUOTE]
