Good 'monsters'
-
So, Syndesia appears to contain ordinary animals, evil 'monsters' and creatures that aren't evil but will still tear your face off and that nobody seems to have a problem with slaughtering.
It occurred to me that some of these might be intended for other worlds, and are only on Syndesia for the testing phases.
I am assuming that the three worlds will have different types of creatures in them; perhaps Tartaros will be home to the more obviously evil ones, Arboreus the 'Primal' not-exactly-evil-but-still.... sort, and Syndesia a mixture of the two, or perhaps its own 'abominations of man'.
There was mention of Good creatures, which, presumably would be the opposite of the Evil ones; namely that, where an evil character can raise their karma by killing evil creatures, a good character could decrease theirs by killing good ones.
Is this still planned, or will all creatures be either: Evil or Nobody-Cares-If-You-Kill-It?

@Mirgannel12 Regaurdless... I will slay everything... Neutral is as Neutral does... everything dies XD
-
...that seems the opposite of neutral...
-
@Mirgannel12 neutral doesn't actually have an opposite. Neutral is the complete middle ground. You don't take ally/enemy into consideration. everyone is equal. Killing everything can be considered Chaotic Neutral. You aren't favoring anyone or anything over anyone or anything else. Everything dies reguardless or status, rank, race, social standing, etc.
True neutral would be attacking those that attacked you first.

@Xzait Actually, no. Neutrality is not impartiality

@Mirgannel12 google says Neutral does mean impartial. Also, take note. I said it would be "Chaotic Nuetral" if I was killing everything.
-
@Xzait ...exactly? neutrality means to not support either side, but in a passive state, not an active/aggressive state
-
@Mirgannel12 That is True Neutral. Not Chaotic Neutral. Neutral Good would be attacking nothing, even if attacked.
-
@Xzait i was more referring to the word itself, rather than the alignment thing, thats all

Killing at random is an evil act, so not neutral.
As a master in D&D i a C/N character should start killing anything at random I would move it to C/E, because that's not neutrality.
