No NE in the Circle?

Isn't the Circle supposed to be a balanced faction? That would include allowing NE as well as NG.

(That'd also let us have Blackguards, which would give us at least one route to sneak attacks).

I'm pretty sure Shadow Druids qualify as Neutral Evil...albeit with a strong focus on what they perceive to be "necessary" rather than on gain for self.

The Circle is allied the Northern Coalition. The closest thing to evil they have in NC is Lawful Neutral, I doubt they'd ally with a faction of evil druids.

What about the arguement for rogues in TC?

Someone said in the last discussion that I remember that not all rogues are thieves and assassins. Some are scouts or spies (or "reconnosance specialists", I believe that's the PC term...

)

Yet as pointed out elsewhere, the NC allows the Evil domain for clerics...

You don't have to like all of what someone does to ally with them. We allied with "Uncle Joe" back in WWII, even knowing that he had some issues. RK doesn't like the Yuan-Ti part of the AO--yet they're still allied. The drow dislike anyone else being as powerful as they--yet they are allied with the arcanists out of common interest. In comparison to that, a couple of shadow druid types running around is small bananas.

dont see it happening

Although that was a great point CrazyJ. But Neutral Evil in a hippie place about peace and nature would allow Blackguards, and I just don't see that fitting in with TC at all.

It's probably be best just to give us the rogues, but I don't see that happening either.

I think the request for Blackguards is a little out of line with what TC stands for, but rogues would fit right in.

it wasnt a request. he was saying that if we allowed LE, it would open the door to blackguards in TC.

I would like to say that while the previous statement about not having to like who you ally with is true, there are points that most wont cross. NC is allied with true neutral and chaotic neutral people, and I think that is about as far as they will let themselves go.
