Making a character on Sundren

*is going to test this statement ingame.. *

can.. they be imaginary balors? *Whimpers*

[Forlorn]

acutally forlorn, my opinion would be thats a lawful good act. paladins would set aside their family for true justice and just slay them, they usually dont give them a chance to talk or turn away,at least the Tyranites. They just smite what they think is evil.

To me, placing a scorpion in his bed so that he could get poisoned doesn't sound too much like the act of a paladin....thats not exactly what you would call "smiting evil"...thats more along the lines of "deception and poisoning them to a slow and painful death".

[Euniana]

Using poison like that is an evil act.

Anyhow, from a starting character balance stand point, it is a fine background. I do have one comment to add.

A PC that is the son of a king probably requires DM moderation. We can have little lordlings or characters born to noble lines ("I'm the fifth son of Baron So-and-So from Tethyr"), but an unregulated prince might be over the top, depending on the circumstance.

Josef was eaten by a red dragonand was miraculously spat out after his insensive talking caused horrible ulsers....

Paladins, the most misunderstood base class in all of DnD.

Yea that definetly would not be a lawful good act. A lawful good character will stop evil, but only within the limits of the law, and poisoning someone in their sleep is not considered a lawful act. MAYBE a Chaotic Good..but I would say that's more along the lines of neutral evil.

Anyway, the alignment of your character isn't soley based on one act.

[undeadsteak]

duh, its based on 2!

[Scarlett]

Also the most boring.

My char is the princess of balors!

I suppose the point you're getting at is that his prince-hood is merely part of his background and has no impact-ingame?

[bigbadwolfdaddy]

correct you are.I will never say bow to me or something stupid like that

[Rhazeal]

I guess I'm just going with writing a bit about my characters' appearance in his/her description.
