We didn't even get started on VS back then.
And it comes back Neutral? Is the process finished or has the subject merely discarded the concept of Good and Evil? You don't have to be Evil to do wrong unto others. For all we know, the guy might have crafted a fictional world for himself, where he was the victim and us the monsters. From his POV, he is the righteous one, making his alignment Good.
Even if that's the case, us making Valyrian steel is still not a problem, because if it do turn out to Anchor the Fourteenth to existence, we can just sacrifice it all to Yss or the old gods, thereby costing him his anchor, it's Valyrian steel we don't have control of that's the problem, any we have we can find a way to exorcise him from, or if that's not possible, we can exchange it for other things at our divine vending machines.
I think connections to and worship of Fiends automatically render you evil, so while detect evil failing to return a confirmation of evil, don't show you are a good person, it do show that you must have abandoned Fiend worship, as being connected to a Fiend will always be detected as evil.
Atleast not a deamon cultist anymore.
And what is the end result? A person who hates us and everything we stand for. For taking their freedom of choice away. Who swears to themselves to vengeance upon our so called laws, but give justice upon the innocent?
And good luck with that.
Remarkably similar to the Deva's "kill them before they can be tempted unto evil", eh?
Pretty much why I support it.
It's much better.
I'm pretty sure the only adventuring party we've seen regularly in interludes lives in the Reach? Unless you mean Lanna and Gerion in which case... Well it's Westeros and they're Tywin's family, I don't think they realize they could just ditch him.
There's no such thing as CG terrorism. CG freedom fighting maybe, but they have to have the sort of engagement rules that are barely viable for a resistance force. So any rebels against us would likely be CN at best.
Counterpoint: Xor.
To be fair his CV also includes 'until recently, thought necromantic plagues were a fine thing to do so long as everyone was a sapient undead by the end of it'. Xor gets to sneak that in through being genuinely that ignorant of how planes that aren't the Far Realm work.
Oh? What engagement rules?
That just proves my point perfectly. The person believes himself to be righteous, therefor he comes out Good! What's to stop someone from believing us to be evil?
? Your offering redemption to anyone who wants it. They would all take it. Logic dictates that some would slip through the cracks. And these ones would be stronger for having survived. How am I mistaken?
Yes, it's a clear delineation and isn't essentially what we were already doing.
Most people can't be Xor! He's an aberration from the Far Realm, he literally didn't understand how things worked. Not quite 'What do you mean cause and effect go together?' level misunderstandings, but close.
