Paladins give me some help. Would you hold your blade if the evil sorceress was pregnant?
>>
Baby didn't do anything wrong.

But, on the other hand, Momma doesn't need to be able to use her hands to give birth to Baby, and if she can't cast spells, most of the damage she can do as a sorceress is mitigated.

Gotta spare that baby, it's still got a fighting chance to be a good boy. But as >>53962947 said, as long as the baby's fine, you can still kick that mom's ass in other ways.

If it's viable with holy magic, she's getting a broadsword C-Section and we're taking the baby to the local church orphanage.

If it's not, then she just gets a broadsword tracheotomy.

The question is for paladins. Warlocks need not apply. One with low int it even less wanted.

My paladin would imprison her, help her give birth and take the child to be sent to my church so it can be raised in the light. Then I would sentence the woman as appropriate for her crimes.
>>
>>53964224
God Damn thats boring.
>>
What kind of evil is she? The appropriate response varies based on the qualities of the criminal and crime.

The wellbeing of an innocent will be brought into consideration, of course, but if the sorceress poses an imminent threat to more lives - one fetal life does not hold infinite weight.
>>
Who is the father? Os the child some kind monstrous spawn ala Grendel guaranteed to be nothing but trouble or does it have as good odds of being good or evil like anyone else? What trimester is she at? If the kid is far enough along that a C-Section won't cause development handicaps, that could work with typical High Fantasy magic.
Otherwise, pretty much >>53962947

Cleave and Smite. I'm here to smite the evil not listen to sob stories and play ethical mind games. That shit is for philosophers. If orc tribe didn't want me to massacre them all, then they shouldn't have raided those villages. If the cultists didn't want me to burn down their HQ with them inside, they shouldn't have worshiped Dagon. If the evil witch didn't want my axe buried in her chest she shouldn't have been an evil witch.
I am the consequence of your sins and you're fightin for a smitin. You just bought an express ticket to divine judgement in the afterlife and I am your travel agent. You paid the toll and now I'm gonna free your soul. No need to pray, I'm gonna get you instant face time with your god today.

How evil are we talking? Because the best course of action will be very different if she's a genocidal maniac versus a Saturday morning cartoon villain.

Otherwise, yes, consider me smoten...smoted...smote...dead.

If she can be feasibly restrained and cut off from her powers, then I will attempt to take her in with as little harm to the mother as possible. She can then be sent to a convent until the child is born. Hopefully, she will see the error of her ways during this time, that she may then raise her child in peace. If she is unwilling to change her ways for her child, then she is lost and must accept whatever punishment is deemed necessary. In such an event, I would personally see to it that the child goes to a good home so that it doesn't follow the same path as its mother.

If attempting this proves to be too high of a risk for my friends, then I unfortunately can not justify risking many lives in order to potentially save two. If it comes to it, I will be the one to accept the black mark on my soul and end the sorceress myself.

Then she's probably on the way to redeem herself already, and there's no need to fight her at all. Not for now at any rate.

Cut off her arms and legs, blind her, cut out her tongue, smash out her teeth and deafen her to make sure she is no danger to anyone in any way, shape or form. Then feed her porridge until she gives birth, after which the sorceress is killed and the baby either put in an orphanage or adopted by the paladin himself.

Voilà.

Then he should do the proper thing, and drag her to the marriage alter.
The Paladin now has a duty to his child to raise them in a stable (somewhat) household, and to turn the evil Sorceress into a suitable mother.
Eventually, seething hatred will give way to passive aggressive anger and the occasional murder/smite attempt. Yet the Paladin and Sorceress will deal with their mounting sexual tension (leading to several more pregnancies) and grow because of it.
The key is finding a common ground. Perhaps the Paladin can introduce his new wife to the wonders of righteous murder? Finding an outlet for her more wicked tendencies, by directing them towards even more wicked individuals, might just light the spark the two would need to live a healthy life, together.

Kill her as sparing her would just cost the lives of more innocence, likely including the child itself if her evil provokes her to caste it off the moment it is born or manipulate into joining the forces of evil. I would expect nothing less from a slattern who would use her own unborn as a shield against her sins. Give offerings and perform penance as prescribed by the priests until I can be assured the babe is freed from purgatory and my soul is clean.

Go on to form the Order of the Unborn Child with a focus on supporting unready mothers who are at risk for attempting to kill their own offspring. Deus Vult.

>>53962872
I'll just imprison her in a comfortable location and keep her happy and well-fed and not allowed to cause trouble until the baby is born.
I'll visit regularly with her to keep her in contact with people and discuss in detail why she feels the need to be evil and then deconstruct her arguments with logic and basic compassion and while reminding her that the kid inside of her is an honest chance at redemption for her.

Given that most evil people have poorly thought-out reasons for doing things based on emotional damage, she'll either be helped after nine months at which point she'll be allowed to go free with supervision from myself or she'll be irreparably insane at which point the child has to be taken from her for it's own safety and her put on trial for her crimes.

I'll raise the kid myself, it's the responsible thing to do.

>>53967467
Magic differentiates between creatures and objects, and lots of spells target any living creature. You could figure out the very moment that the soul forms.
>>
>>53970810
That's already been covered.
Besides, most psychopaths can be helped and treated over time; that's actually one of the clinical definitions of being a psychopath. She also would need to not follow the definition of psychopathy to learn magic, requires too much actual focus and dedicated intelligence. If she has the actual mental disease somehow I'll go for some cure disease and remove curse for safe measures.

If she's truly beyond treatment I'll raise the child myself and she'll be put on trial and serve her punishment for any crimes she had committed during her freedom, after which she won't be my problem anymore and properly raising the child will.

>>
>>53970984
Because this actually happened once in one of my games.
The DM thought he was being clever and giving us a complex moral conundrum like a lot of shitlord DM's try before they reach maturity as a DM, only to discover I was effectively willing to stop playing this character I was playing to attempt reabilitation and raising of this future child. He assumed I'd be more attached to a fictional character I made up then I actually was and I ended his whole scenario by choosing to loose him and make a new one.
>>
>>53970897
You should keep her in private bondage until the child is at least a couple of years old. Early on having feminine interaction is important for the development of the child. And perhaps seeing the goodness and kindness the child develops under your guidance can serve as a catalyst to make her turn good
>>
>>53971076
That's part of the plan, yeah.
It's a strategy that will basically take the rest of my life, but if I cared about that sort of silly shit I wouldn't have become a Paladin in the first place.

>>53962872
As a lawful evil paladin of Galthrus, Lord of Bad End I would. But only long enough to get her to meet a simple, yet good-hearted farmer and fall in love. She'd change her ways and learn to be a better person, just before both her and the baby both mysteriously die during labor. The man, his heart shattered will go one to become the worlds most deadly and feared necromancer, casting an unending blight upon the land in his doomed quest to bring back his beloved and her child.

...How? "Imprison the sorceress, bring her to trial (a fair one!), find the child a good home, and ensure that the whole thing doesn't blow up a few decades thereafter" is a much trickier set of tasks than, e.g., "kill that bitch and her worthless spawn without hesitation", and, as a player, I'd regard the former as much more interesting than the latter in part because it's so much more challenging.

The baby is not only unborn, it literally is a tabula rasa (aka: blank slate). Just because its (because we don't know at this point if the baby is a boy or a girl) mom is a evil sorceress doesn't mean it too will be evil.

If I were the paladin, then I would imprison her, but wait with the judgment stuff until she gave birth.

On the other hand we could put in the various turns of events that would affect a evil woman becoming pregnant...but that's something for another thread that involves mental changes and such.

Forcing a woman to carry a child to term against her will may be evil, but she's an evil sorceress. If she hadn't already gotten an abortion then she wasn't going to. You wouldn't be forcing her to do anything she hadn't already chosen to do.

So the correct, moral option that would satisfy both feminists and conservatives alike is to imprison and judge her for her crimes and then execute her after she births the child if her crimes call for it.

You're not paladin material. Cutting off her hands and cutting out her tongue is to disarm her (har har, puns) so that she can be securely incarcerated. It's not a nasty-minded punishment. like lopping off everything else.

That's why--after you remove her hands and tongue--you ask her if she was planning to carry the baby to term. (You don't need a tongue to answer yes or no questions.) If so, you enable her to do so and find the baby a good family. If not, you turn her over to be hanged, regretting her choice.

>b-but then the baby dies!
Not the paladin's fault. The mother was never planning to carry the baby to term.

Only shit GMs think that there are no-win situations for paladins.
>>
>>53985825
A paladin is a moral paragon. More Superman than Punisher. They should never kill an innocent with their own hands.

Disabling the mother's spellcasting and ensuring she doesn't get regeneration cast on her in the time between now and the birth is delaying justice for the mother to give it to the child. Delaying, not suspending.
>>
>>53985254
A valid point. If the baby itself pings as evil somehow, the paladin would be excused for killing the mother pre-birth.

i'm assuming that, much like in real life, you don't have psychic powers, as such you just have to work with the info you have, which is that an evil sorceress is pregnant. I'm guessing the evil sorceress, seeing as she has been hunted down by you, has already made a name for herself as someone both powerful and malign. Can't say anything for the baby, as there's nothing on who the father is or why she is pregnant with it.

Kill the sorceress and attempt to C-section the baby or have someone else do it.

The baby may well die from this. Assuming it doesn't, have someone learned figure out what it is and if it would be a threat to people by it's nature should it grow up.

If it doesn't survive the C-cestion also have it assessed and identified in case whatever it is has some kind of death curse.

Then check the area for hostiles missed and leave.

Try to come to terms with what they had done because even if they felt is was the right thing to do, it may still bother them.


Assuming the child survived, was found to not be fundamentally a threat by it's nature and so was not killed, find a place for the orphan.

That depends a lot on the setting, in a theological, ethical, scientific, and magic sense. I don't think there's any right answer here, because I would need really specific information for the call. For instance, if it's a world with freebe, non-karma dependent reincarnation, it's probably fine. If it's a world where it would immediately damn the fetus to hell, that's a no-no, unless you have absolutely no choice. And so on, and that's not taking into account odd little details I'm sure someone could make up.

>>53971076

Depending on how dangerous she is, this might be an unwise decision - not to mention seeing this (most likely) very unhappy woman in bondage repeatedly might be mentally damaging for the child.

There are other alternatives; male gay couples often make sure to regularly expose children they raise to aunts, grandmothers, and close friends to make sure they have plenty of interaction with women. It might be a better plan to do something similar, perhaps with a party member if available. Certainly there would be less baggage.

Because you will have to use your healing powers to stop the bleeding in the first place.

You fuckers are pathetic, if you truly think that cutting the limbs and tongue off is the only way.
And that's why if I will play a Paladin, I will always carry a needle and thread, to stitch fingers together, and mouth shut. Scars will be more symbolical, and they still can be opened. Hope she likes drinking soup through straw.

I never said the sorceress' limbs should be restored. I was arguing the point that it was POSSIBLE.

The sorceress--amputated or sewn--should be given to the rightful authorities after the birth, or executed if no such authorities exist.

"harmonium" "harmonium setting", "harmonium novel", "harmonium movie", and "harmonium game" on Google give me nothing related to paladins.

Assumption on your part. You don't know how the paladin learned of the pregnancy. The source could be a trustworthy one.

>Or unless the temple is collapsing, or any of a dozen other tricks GMs use to say "We're done here."
Knock her out, worry about it later. You will have to carry her out of collapsing temple anyway. Especially that she'll loose consciousness after you mercilessly hack off her limbs and rip out her tongue, the latter needing much more specific tools than non-magical healing.

Also, hacking off limbs and ripping tongue out is more than likely going to cause her to go into shock, which is more than likely to cause miscarriage.

Cleric exist to redeem. Paladins protect the innocent, like the baby, and remove threats to the innocent, like the mother.

>So, you admit that you want to mutilate her forever
If that's the only way to prevent her from harming innocents until she gives birth, yes. Protect the baby. Protect the other people she would harm.

>Then such a source would knew who is the father, making decision of killing or not killing known before you get to her.
Another assumption. Maybe the paladin knows because a Detect Evil scan found a pocket of no-evil in the mother's abdomen.

>Knock her out, worry about it later. You will have to carry her out of collapsing temple anyway. Especially that she'll loose consciousness after you mercilessly hack off her limbs and rip out her tongue, the latter needing much more specific tools than non-magical healing.

Fair points.

Is mother a definite threat to the child? What if you are the threat? What if the sorceress is evil only because she opposes Good king, but their conflict ignores casualties among innocents?

>Maybe the paladin knows because a Detect Evil scan found a pocket of no-evil in the mother's abdomen.
Then there is no dilemma about letting her live or not, as it is your duty to keep her alive till she delivers.

>Now you're punishing the paladin for the player's lack of medical knowledge.
No, I would fail Paladin for being way more cruel than a paladin has right to. Killing evil witch and the unborn child? Fine, a penance and he's good as new. Mutilation? That's wrong.

I'm not a millennial, it's science, unborn human babies are super invasive compared to most other mammals.

"Evil" is qualified in D&D is willing to harm others for selfish intent, right?
>>
>>53996674
Well, if a child is a spawn of Demon/Devil/Some other inherently evil being and will retain that nature, then yes, baby can be inherently evil.

>>53962872
Smite evil.

Kill Bitch.

Baby isnt even a human, no more than cancer. It's a body, no soul, no fucking alignment which last I checked, dictated alignment.

Pray to God that he guides the unborn soul to be reincarnated if it is truly one born of innocence because, holy shit, all unborn fetuses are templates without souls.

Like Jesus fucking Christ you retards calling for the maiming and and torture of evil forget that such an act is evil itself, and that YOU LITERALLY HAVE A DIVINE ALL POWERFUL ALL KNOWING BEING ON FUCKING SKYPE SPEED DIAL WHO CHANCES ARE GUIDES THE SOULS OF THE DEAD. It's not some bullshit where like if you're a cleric you roll for if your God can be bothered to get off their ass and smack you hard enough in the dick to let you use healing hands or some bullshit, your prayers get automatically heard by your God, who anointed you as a adjudicator of THEIR POWER, THEIR WILL, AND THEIR DIVINITY.

You all also want to pretend that you have to spare the evil, that it needs to be turned into the proper authorities, nigger Paladin's ARE THE PROPER AUTHORITIES.

You spare the evil, fine. Then for the next several months, literally torture, maim, starve and risk the Evil escaping and having all the more reason to be evil, while also risking the child turning out to be a literal gateway to hell.

Fucking shitty Dams wanting to make their Paladin's fall with their retarded, supposedly unwinnable conundrums.

Smite.

Pray.

Done.

Off the top of my head, in Pathfinder, I believe Detect Evil doesn't work on an aligned creature lower than four hit dice. Seeing as a fucking wolf has 2 HD, I don't think a harmless baby would register.

Idk bout you guys but i really feel like playing a paladin right now

>>53996981
Hell, if I would be a DM of a maim and torture Paladin, I would either make him fall, or demand severe penance, and then play a campaign set up several years later, where he learns that his party from back then is all dead
>Cleric died after having his tongue ripped off and stuffed it back into his mouth, where he choked with it
>Fighter died after having his hands chopped off and bled to death
>Wizard got burned alive
Paladin will have to figure out clues to find out that the child of the Evil Sorceress learned what happened to his/her real mother and is coming after him and his party.

And then have Paladin find out that the once-an-unborn isn't even Evil, but simply lead by righteous anger for torturing her mother, instead of making it quick.

Or if I would make Paladin to fall, and he gave the child to his Order as a part of his Penance, have the child be a Paladin of said Order, on a mission from the God to punish the
evil committed by his former servant.

>>53962872
I'm a paladin of good and just gods, so I have access to no small amount of healing magic and knowledge therein, yes?

So I smite the sorceress's head off, c-section the baby out, heal it nonstop all the way back home, and leave it to a combination of divine prayer and magical life support.

Or I shoot the hostage if my god is less merciful.
>>
>>53996487
When are you going to cloister yourself away from everyone?
>>
>>53962872
I am generally very forgiving as person and my characters are as well. But if the sorceress was evil enough to be smitten, unborn baby probably wouldn't make a difference for me. At least it would avoid suffering in this world.

Oh man didn't realize that we were fucking going by the book on whether a Paladin should or should not smite the fucking evil. Maybe we should fucking ring up a degree holding DM to rule if Kelemvor, borderline fucking Paladin, makes fucking house calls or if Smite Evil, a fucking DIVINE SPELL is discriminate in whether or not SOULS GET SHIPPED TO HIS ASS OR NOT.

I don't know, maybe we should ask a sworn in Doomguide, get it all notarized

This thread is 100% boring meme opinions.

Here's the REAL ANSWER.

>real answer now.

The scenario doesn't specify how far gone the pregnancy is.

'unborn' fetus does not a person make.

Paladin has not reason to still his blade. Chop her up into pieces and burn her on a pyre.

Get rewarded by god.

The mother gets a stay of execution until the baby is born, ala Morgan Reed and Anne Bonnie. Until the she is stored in an anti-magic prison. If no anti-magic prison exists, take measures to make sure she can't cast spells(including, but not restricted to, cutting out her tongue and/or breaking her fingers)

What kind of wierd post-scarcity setting am I playing in?

I figure that the death rates are such that people only get emotionally invested when the kid survives for like a week.

I guess it turns out her kid was only every going to be a husk anyway.

Such is fate.

That's right, any animal could be human if a wizard applied magic to it.

So we shouldn't kill animals, plants, abuse rocks too much.

Seriously, if you pick that flower, I will kill you.
>>
>>54001576
I'm just explaining why "lump of cells" isn't an argument, I'm not saying that anything that consists of cells cannot be killed. Apply yourself.
>>
>>54001613

My point is that the point at which you decide something is a potential human gets weird in a magical setting in which everything is possibly sapient, and human transformation is real.

Why would you want a baby to be cared by an evil sorceress?

You would probably find a better family for her.
