Role

Chapter 9

P.S. As a battlerager of the light, and particularly a scion of an old Knight
of Thera house, he is keenly aware of the line he walks. He has great respect
for paladins ("noble knights" in his vernacular) and all who hold goodness in
their hearts. And he derives neither pleasure nor joy from seeking to place
his blades in the hearts of elves and others that have chosen magic as their
professions. But he knows it must be done, and he will do his duty. Even so,
when any of the light die to his blades, there will be personal cost, even if
no more than a moment of reflection, but perhaps also a more outward expression
of sadness that such deeds are necessary. And of course there would need to be
a significant set of extenuating circumstances for him to take the life of a
goodly non-mage. Obviously killing a goodly soul for a piece of clothing or
anything they might carry would be unacceptable. Though magical constructs
that may appear as goodly are in fact neither living, nor good, but rather
the results of the very thing he fights, and are thus fair game if necessary.
Also, those that claim neither goodness nor evil, but some sort of neutrality,
hold little claim to his restraint. He is no wonton killer, but if there are
times he feels his war would be aided by the death of such a one, then he will
not shy from doing so, as they are clearly not lighthearted. Like all things
this will be something he must assess and judge as it arises.
