Then Dmitri departs on his dangerous espionage mission into hostile territory, with blades in every shadow seeking his neck! Dun dun duuun!

[Ignus_Draconus]

yeah, and I'm sure not all of them started out as enemies

[Corsair5]

I hope I don't meat Duke Nightsorrow. Or Baron Frostblade. Those guys knew Dmitri from Paladin College.

Sorry I decided to get really drunk at that time, guys!  I won't be next time. It was an expirement.  Only if Brass were on... *Sigh* I miss her so.

Wow... I'm surprised I was able to write that so legibly.  That must have been one of those times I was really, really concentrating.

[Raforever]

So, how are the RPS?  

Depending on the time I might join in too :cheerygrin:  

[Corsair5]

It's good, it's good.

[Jigen]

They're... well intended. You can't fault the makers and they're actually really fun when everyone's playing well with each other.

[Inquisitor]

Im new to this forum, but not RPing. How often do they set up RPs? The last time I RPed on a forum they poste donce every half a year or something like that.

Inquisitor, we have one in the chatroom every Friday night. I've checked your character sheet so far, and I'm puzzled by your Lawful Good alignment. To me, torturing people or burning them at the stake doesn't strike me as a 'Good' thing to do. Your character seems more 'Lawful Neutral' to me at best, and 'Evil' at worst. Could you please explain why you classed your character as 'Lawful Good'?

Reish, your character sheet seems fine, abeit wordy. I'd preferred one where a quick glance would have given me the gist of what your character is, followed by a detailed description, but whatever floats your boat.

Btw, there is really no need to go /me |He says "Blah blah blah", and then does action x. You could have just typed out "Blah blah blah", followed by "/me does action x". It's a lot quicker that way for an rp chat.

The reason I do that is because I tend to play multiple characters, and I much prefer to use paragraph form.  It is a story, after all, and that is how I roleplay wherever I do my freeform, so I might as well write like that.  There's never any reason to skimp on the details if they can be there and not be superfluous.

[Jafar]

I knew it was a odd habit!  

[Corsair5]

I understood his guy. He's a religious zealot, a fanatic. The people he tortures and kills ARE strictly evil. He's a little messed up in the head, that's all.

Exactly! I, too, wasnt sure enough to put lawful good, but he fights evil, and might eventually turn neutral, due to him not being excaepted by his church, or even Evil, due to his dabbling in the dark arts.

[Swift]

I don't think all witches or werecreatures are evil. Plus, he uses the dark arts and torture methods against his enemies. Does that make him any better than the prey he hunts? It just doesn't sound Lawful Good to me.

[Inquisitor]

Thats the twist of the character. His church, for the better good, endorses and enforces the tarditional burning of witches and heretics. Good was never defined as loving all animals. A paladin wouldnt hesitate in killing an orc as an inquisitor would not hesistate in killing what they believe to be evil. Most cases, to catch the eye of a witch hunter or inquisitor you probably are evil. The only time you might be innocent is if you are a good natured necromancer, (which I play often), or someone he might see as a "witch".

As far as his dark powers goes, they were noble intentions at first. But the greed inside of him,(I never said he was innocent), wants more then just the power to fight his enemies. He wants more. But he wouldnt sacrafice an innocence.....yet. He may very well become neutral, if his church finds out. Or even evil of the greed gets the better part of him. Has very lawful, and as oppose to intentions, he is good. How would a druid react to an innocent lumber jack chopping down excessive trees? The lumber jack isnt evil. The witch hunter reacts to what he sees as the "sinners". Note the quotations. Thus we have drama and conflict for me to roleplay. If its too much I can always play a nicer one. It just wont be as original.
