Indeed, in the post Chobarth is misquoting, Rich actually said he likes the alignment system overall.

Re: OOTS #835 - The Discussion Thread
Kish is right.
Several people have been seriously misinterpreting Rich's comments that he made in the "Redcloak's failed characterization" thread. The irony of it is that a lot of people are coming in saying "Yeah, yeah, I agree with Rich... this or that aspect of D&D the game is bad" when that isn't what Rich is saying at all.
If anyone wants to read over the quotes again, you can find them through the link in my sig."And yet, will we ever come to an end of discussion and talk if we think we must always reply to replies? For replies come from those who either cannot understand what is said to them, or are so stubborn and contentious that they refuse to give in even if they do understand." - St. Augustine

Re: OOTS #835 - The Discussion Thread
Well, the ingredients are there, although it would be hard to discuss given forum rules. The cartoonish look makes it easy to view this as unrealistic, but it's still disturbing, particularly if one can relate this to a more realistic imagery like the one in the movie.
There's a lot of talk about of V, but Durkon should have stopped it. He should have killed Belkar there.Avatar: ruthless Parson (Erfworld).

Further into the dark side, you mean? The only part of V which has exhibited any real conscience after the Familicide is Blackwing. The elf might not want to be evil, but aspirations matter little and less.
And yes Murray, I believe so, though I consider Lawful more respectable.
That's actually a good point. I could argue that Durkon is simply too used to associating with his villainous companions, but that in itself is not truly all that good. Durkon definitely needs more character arcs to explore the effects the party has had on him.Brewing a new setting (3.5 ed D&D). The setting is complete and ready to play.
Indeed, here is the recruitment thread for the first run.
The above post was probably snide, snippy, tongue in cheek and/or opinionated. Consult your sense of humour before vexation. If still vexed, attempt to cease giving a damn. Thank you for reading this public service bulletin.
