    It sure seems she is upset that her target has a sister. Maybe I misread, nut she seems to be upset because it won't be nice for the little girl. And I guess the guy's friends? Why she thought a paladin wouldn't have friends... I donno.

    She almost seems LN. Her plan isn't very C. And taking orders lime she is without even being threatened is kinda N or L.

    Plan? She doesn't have an actual plan. She's playing it by ear. No she's upset because a sister, and what are 2 obviously good friends would make her job much more difficult. Also, it's not that she didn't expect him to have friends, it's that usually, if her target has good friends like that, Nathan (Incubus guy from the first strip) usually tells her that, same with the sister.
    You don't know why she takes orders so easily, because I haven't told you, and I can't lest I spoil a major plot point.

    I see, that's fine, but until I know more, it appears she isn't very evil.

    But appears and isn't are different. I'm just saying she doesn't give me the evil feel.

    Being that almost everything you've seen of her, has been her pretending to be CG, I understand why it doesn't seem like she's CE.

    I guess so, but her mental monologue isn't very sinister.

    I guess she is just a good actress, and I roll poorly at sense motive.

    I still see her as too nice. Her inner monologue... well, the inner monologue of my most recent CE character in that situation would have been more like this:

    "Who does this Alistar think he is? Does he take me for a fool? With that petty show of force? I will rend his flesh from his bones! But first... I have a mission to complete. No petty barkeeper will stand in my way. And when I have done... I'll take that fool and rip his still beating heart from him, as I suck out his soul!"

    Or something.

    1.She didn't know his name
    2.She was panicked
    3.Her anger right now is directed towards Nathan, which you'll be seeing in a few strips.
    4.She's choosing to ignore him and is also a bit frightened by him
    5. Evil≠Crazy

    1. Replace him name with a profanity then.
    2. Panicking doesn't make me forget to be evil.
    3. CE. Anger is everywhere.
    4. Someone crossed a CE person and that CE person is going to ignore it? Turning the other cheek was a Jesus thing, you know. Not a role model for a CE person.
    5. CE is more or less crazy. But regardless of that thought, my guy isn't crazy, he is bloodthirsty. Vengeful. Vindictive. A little cruel. Things a CE person typically would be,

    Me and you clearly have a different interpretation of CE.
    I see CE as someone who is hot-tempered, vicious, and unpredictable, while having no respect or consideration for the life and dignity of others.
    A Evil person, whether it be LE, NE, or CE, can be friendly, can be funny, and can be likable. Evil does not have to be mean, or crazy. Even CE.

    1. Yeah, I'm trying not to swear in these, so no.
    2. ... Yeah, sorry I have no idea what you're trying to say here. She's not forgetting anything. She's worried this random guy might kill her
    3. That's not how I interpret CE, as I've stated above.
    4. She's not turning the other cheek, she's disregarding it as unimportant in what she's trying to do here.
    5. It seems crazy to me. Vengeful? Yes, that is Tiff, most of the time. Vindictive? Definitively Tiff. A little cruel? She's more than a little cruel. Bloodthirsty? Not in the slightest. Tiff is the type of evil who likes to crush people mentally, not physically. She likes to tear their good outlook apart and drag them down to her level. It's kinda her job, but she doesn't strive to kill others. She will if she has too, and will do it without regret or a second thought, but it's not something she goes out of her way to do.

    I see.

    CE to me is Chaotic, and Evil plus a synergy bonus.

    I see chaotic as having to regard for the rules, or social structures.

    Evil as desiring bad things upon others. Evil enjoys suffering. Evil hates it when other people are happy.

    The synergy bonus of being both chaotic and evil granting: I don't care at all how other's feel unless I can use it to manipulate them into being miserable or causing misery for others.

    I think your basic feeling of evil is a lot nicer than mine. Maybe I am cynical.

    Aw. That would have been fun.

    I wonder how nerve racking it would be to be living surrounded by paladins. I guess she has an undetectable alignment though.

    Yup, she has some random magic item of undetectable alignment. A ring perhaps. Sure let's go with a ring.

    But her hair would cover any earrings. But that's fine to. I don't see a ring on her finger though.

    Also, although I suppose you wont tell me, if Mr. Paladin doesn't dislike bards, why did he react to Tiff's admission to being a bard with a sigh and a rhetorical question?

    ... Elf ears? Also, rings just aren't drawn in OotS style.

    Thaaaats a surprise for later.

    Okay, I thought you may be making a joke, but I wasn't sure, especially since someone before on this page thought rings should be visible in this style. ^^;

    No, my reasoning was actually that just because you can't see her earring doesn't mean she doesn't have them, and I intended to cite the lack of visibility on rings as am example of that truth.

    Sorry if that was unclear. I am not a wordsmith.
