** Or opening a gate to hell beneath them does not work either
** inding solars to commit said mass murder/opening the gate to hell does not make it any less "evil"
** The party paladin is not secretly begging me for a quick Morality Unbound, nor is he secretly supportive of my evil
** I cannot use the paladin as ammunition in a seige.
** This cannot be because his average damage and survivability are far to low to make it worth it
** If I point that out I will get smoten. multiple times.

If the DM says that this is just set-up story for everything else so we don't need to roll anything yet, that does not mean kill the BBEG as soon as you see him.
If I try this, I have to allow him to get away somehow.
