D&D 4E

We did not do a stellar job of protecting our cleric last night. Happily he did not die.

Quinn did do a good job of rallying the panicked fleeing mob. Actually, too good; the whole thing could have ended tragically since the townsfolk armed with hoes, rakes and other gardening tools probably wouldn't have lasted long against the ogre or the hobgoblins. As I recall, characters like the townsfolks have one hit point each.

What evil? paladins used to do this sort of thing, so it can't be evil, right?

And if he's been hittig the woman, it's no wonder she's a bit distant. he needs to stop hitting her and TALK to her. Geez, modern relationships.

Hitting _on_. Bah.

But there are so many rules for hitting, and so few for hitting on!

Sorry, I'm harldy one to talk. But I just couldn't resist that one, since it's just too much like something that might happen in a D&D game.

I don't know any DMs that would allow an old-school (1st-3rd) Paladin send townspeople into certain death w/o yanking the Paladin's powers.

(unless, of course, the nasty was a rust monster).

Well, actually neither did I, because most GM's I knew would make sure that a character's paladinship could be measured in minutes. For some reason being a paladin was seen as a challenge to put the characters in situations where they'd lose their paladinship whatever they did.
