LOL... alignment problems...

One goround, our group decided to just play a silly "All Evil" game. We ditched our paladins and "Clerics of the Realm" and drafted up a pack of thieves, brigands and assassins... I personally wound up with an Assassin/Illusionist.

One of our characters opted to play a Lawful Good Paladin, there to "show us the error of our ways and convert us all over". He'd been getting kind of squirrely lately in real life as well, having just converted to his version of Buddhism and veganism and generally trying to convert all of us as well.

He lasted three days. My character finally got him (and won the $5 bet as to who would be able to take him out). Our party went on to the heights of silliness, eventually carving a country of our own out of an 'orc nation'. Great fun.

This almost inspires me to make it out to the next game convention going on... Gee, I wonder what they've done in 3rd edition that's different from the old original AD&D rules I'm used to?
