mgordon Posted January 3, 2012 Posted January 3, 2012 You know, I was just going to make my own thread, but this one seems very appropriate. DRAGONS SCHMAGONS or MORALS SHMORALS I was just clearing out some mine, when I realized that I'm no better than the bandits I'm killing. Sure, they attack first without making any kind of moral judgement on whether or not I should die, but what am I doing in the first place? Yeah, OK, so I'm the dragon born. Whoopty Doo. I'm supposed to save the land. But what are the means? Much like the bandits, which I have absolutely no reservations in ridding the face of the land of, I'm out there trying to find as much treasures I can pawn off, and a few that are just nifty enough to keep. OK, so I live by a code. I don't kill wabbits. I don't kill foxes. I don't kill anything or anyone that doesn't attack me first. But I'm still running around like a thief in the night to make my journey to the end a little easier. Bandits? Really, they are nothing more than ants to me. Occasionally they are accompanied by one worthy of a challenge, but I certainly kill hundreds more of them to a single death of mine. I have some thinking to do about who I really am.

It is for this exact reason why i have recently created a new character, a Khajiit who travels the lands picking herbs and healing injured animals, it's a hard job, but someone's got to do it.
Levgre Posted January 3, 2012 Posted January 3, 2012 Bandits are career criminals and honestly in medieval times it was conserved lawful and just to kill criminals. I suppose the better route is for the authorities to send out overwhelming force and detain the bandits, but you don't see them doing that... so by killing bandits often you are saving the lives or wealth of their innocent victims..
Matth85 Posted January 3, 2012 Posted January 3, 2012 Bandits are career criminals and honestly in medieval times it was conserved lawful and just to kill criminals. But going out a slaughtering anybody you think are bandits, because you want some loot you sell, is all just and honest? Of course, it would be quite boring i you'd get the guards after you if you killed bandits. Then again you DO get guards after you if you kill chickens. Tamriel is a weird world indeed.
Sarpedon Posted January 3, 2012 Posted January 3, 2012 I would like to see a mod which allows you to capture any wrongdoer that you beat to the point that they yell "I submit!" and turn them over to the authorities. I also miss Morrowind which gave everyone a name, even if they were a demented psychopath who would attack you instantaneously. This whole "Bandit," "Forsaken," "Necromancer" thing dehumanizes them.

Yeah, that would be better than how they currently stab you in the back after you grant them mercy.
