The guy was an idiot, really.  He took 2 murder counts for a pair of black sandals that he could have gotten himself - for free - and without murder counts.
 
I was hide hunting in Rivendell with Anglara (17 strength).  We lost each other, and The Scoundrel Brandon came up and started talking kewlio to me. "Were did u get tohse sandles?"  "From an NPC."  "Which one?"  "I don't know; they were a present."
 
Then he asks what I'm doing... do I want to go fight monsters with him... I tell him no, I'm just hunting animals to raise tailoring.  He asks if I want him to help kill animals.  I say sure.  So he kind of tags along.. helps kill some animals.  He keeps asking us questions.  "What is ur str" and "r u a mag"  and "what is ur mace skill."
 
Eventually, Brandon waited until I was at about half health, and then said An Ex Por, Kal Vas Flam, An Ex Por, Corp Por, and I was dead.  He must have been pretty sad if it took THAT much to take me down when i was at half health.
 
I'm wasn't carrying anything good...  Some leather armor, a couple of sewing kits, 2 runes, about 5 of each recall reagent, and a bunch of Studded Leather Sleeves that I had tailored along the way...
 
And a pair of black sandals - a present from Damin Tresh.
 
Anglara attacked him for attacking me, and he took her down, too.  Two fricking murder counts for these dumb sandals.  What a maroon.
 
I went back to my corpse - he had pretty much left everything on my corpse except my bag of reagents and runes (found the runes, and about 70 gps that I had gotten from orcs, up the road a bit).  But he took my fricking sewing kits... and of course, my sandals.
 
I saw them later, Locked Down on his porch - the house was named "The Black Diamond Lounge" or something to that effect.  The funny thing is - this guy will probably never wear them... because they are too 'special.'
 
But if he had had a bit of ambition, and if he had asked me the right questions... and if he hadn't been such a fricking dewd... he could have had a pair of his own.  For free... without the murder counts.
 
Laziness.  That's really all that was.

I know.  Bad form to respond to your own post.  But I don't think I really need to make a whole thread just for this subject, because it is kind of related to the PK story.  Although, if I made the subject "RALPH READ THIS!!!" then maybe that would get Raph's attention, cause this is sort of about something we were talking about earlier.
 
I hope he reads this.  Maybe if he doesn't respond, I'll just mail it to him.  Cause in a minute here, I'm going to admit that I was wrong, and he was right... which I think he'd be interested in reading.
 
As another aside - can you tell now that I hardly ever get PKed?  This is only my 3rd time being PKed... and I think it has GOT to be one of the most analyzed PK-Events *ever,* which I think is kinda funny.  I mean, if I got pked all the time, I wouldn't have NEAR enough time to analyze them all.
 
 
Anyway... so here's the deal.
 
I say there should be darkness without dewds.  Raph says dewds ARE darkness.  I say I want to give people the chance to actually be anti-virtuous.  Raph says the dewds are more anti-virtuous than any foozle they could dream up.  Raph really may be right.
 
In one evening, The Scoundrel Brandon (although i'm sure the game has given him another title besides Scoundrel now) has shown me that he is Cowardly, Deceitful, and Dishonorable.  I wish Lazy was an anti-virtue, cause then I could get four.  Greed could be another.  Maybe Darius could tell me what the rest of the real anti-virtues are, so I could see if he fit any of them.
 
He was Deceitful, because he asked me if I wanted to hunt monsters, and then animals... but killed me, instead.  He was *also* deceitful when I was killing the bull and said "I lost conn" ... but what he was *really* doing was waiting for me to get to half health so that he could kill me.
 
He was Cowardly, because he waited until I was at half health to do any damage at all.
 
He ws Dishonorable, because he didn't give me even a *chance* to defend myself.
 
 
Raph couldn't have made a Foozle do that.  And if he did - if the GAME had taken my sandals... it would have been much, much worse (for me as a player, not Mairi the tailor) than Brandon the Idiot taking them.
 
 
But here's the thing.  The game only makes him a Scoundrel or Glorious. The virtues aren't even there.  I want EVERYONE to know that Brandon is a Coward.  I want EVERYONE to know that he is Dishonorable and Deceitful.  I want to be able to tell the game this... and have it show, somehow.
