[QUOTE="Fingol, post: 1952554, member: 22679"] There seems to be something in there about the mindframe of Sir Cedric: One moment he calls himself the chosen of his god and in the next he reveals that he thinks his cause is a futile one. I might be projecting a bit here but it sounds to me he doesn't belief he is making a difference at all. Which if he is the chosen one of his god doesn't that mean that he feels that his god isn't making a difference? Calling himself stupid is like calling his deity stupid for chosing him. If I was his god I'd drop him fast and find myself someone a bit more effective. Someone who can make a difference, if only through fighting faster and getting more done in a day. Maybe a paladin that didn't drink and whored so much? There are also undertones of: "I am making the ultimate sacrifice every day so I deserve some loving anyway I can get it." Where is he getting the money from to go drinking and whoring? From hoards from evil defeated who got it from the same people he is now exploiting with the same wealth/ power. If all the girls in the brothel had to do was once a week service a handsome healthy smart paladin their lives would not be so bad. But I am picking that if they need to be cured of disease regularly that the rest of the 20 plus clients that they serve every day of every week while too drugged or drunk to notice are not as handsome smart or healthy as our 'hero'. I could go on raving but I'll stop here. He'd not be a paladin in my game. No LG god would choose him. [/QUOTE]
