Paladin Thread: Player Doesn't See Murder As Evil


Off-Topic Discussions


Turns out, one of the players in my group really hates the bad rap paladins sometimes get. We're running out of people willing to GM for us. To make matters worse, the woodshed's almost full and it's starting to smell.

Any advice?

If the player doesn't see murder as evil, then you should probably have him talk to a therapist.


Be wary of any man who keeps a pig farm.

nsfw cussing, in cockney accents


I have a dream that one day, we'll be done with the "Your player is ____? Gee, I hope you mean Player Character!" joke. I figured the best way to kill the funny was to jump on the bandwagon.


Sorry I just came across this thread I don't know if the issue has been solved or not but im gonna go ahead and throw in my two cents. As a DM/GM I stress on my players to play how they see their character being, now on the subject of paladins they are ussualy lawful good charecters (lawful good is not lawful nice think of how batman acts). If I had a player playing a good paladin and he wanted to randomly kill people aka murder then I would have to step in and say "hey im sorry but paladins are devoted to justice and letting the law take its course" with that being said if the paladin is after say a criminal and for some reason cannot bring him in (after the paladin trys to have the criminal surrender or come quietly ect ect) and then I may see the paladin subjecting the criminals punishment then and their, now different scenerios might change this it really depends on the player and the character they created. Now the subject of the player doesn't see murder as evil, does the player see this or the character? if its the player maybe he/she does need a therapist but if its the character seeing this as not evil then maybe its his charecters personality. However murder is still murder and is still classified as an evil act.


It was a joke, fortunately. There was not actually a player murdering GMs over alignment debates.

Not that we can testify to, anyway.

I dunno. [anti-kobold propaganda] Kobolds tend to be pretty hardcore 1%ers when it comes to playing RPGs. I saw a whole clan murderize each other over a RAI vs RAW argument in a game of Mousetrap. [/anti-kobold propaganda]
