Possessing of one of the three Evil alignments as defined in the fucking Players Handbook. Tell your DM to stop being a cheeky fuck.
>>
>>55100633
The correct answer. The DM might have a point if you're playing a morally grey setting, but Evil is literally a defined cosmological force and Detect Evil is quite specific about what gives a positive reading.
>>
>>55100496
Wait.
So you could technically detect anything you wanted to by simply telling your GM that you consider them evil?

The DM wouldn't have a point even then. There is no moral grey in D&D, morality exists in the world, and just like dragons, so do demons and angels.
If the DM is playing a morally grey setting they shouldn't be playing D&D.

Evil is not subjective in DnD. By not following the alignments as defined by the players handbook, the DM is unfairly nerfing the paladin class. This is the DM's prerogative, but he is a dick for not informing you that paladin was not a viable class choice at character creation.

>>55102575
Neutrality, Chaos, and Law are all as extant as good and evil.
There is no moral grey in the sense of "subjective morality." Morality in D&D is objective.
>>
>>55102553
Little Timmy wouldn't flare up as evil for one instance of stealing food. If he was habitually denying his starving sister food, then you might have a good example and a leg to stand on.
And even then, a paladin is meant to temper his justice with reasonable compassion. Killing a child, unless it was some higher evil's illusory trick, would be out of the question for a Good paladin.
>>

He wants to alleviate his disgust, which would be a personal gain.

>>55100523
I can think of a few good circumstances where it should be. It could be an interesting way to define a city or region with a strong central authority.

In my opinion, it in general it makes more sense than D&D's assorted takes on alignment across editions, outside of 4e and 5e treating it more as a descriptive character trait than a prescriptive part of some ineffable metaphysical truth.
>>
>>55103651
That's an interesting take, but the answer may not always be immediately apparent, depending on the deity.

The god of justice abhors murderers, thieves and con artists. The god of the forest hates arson, poachers and irresponsible loggers. But what does the god of luck hate? People who cheat at games of chance?
>>
>>55104180
Nah, cheating just makes it funner if the other guy manages to still win.
>>
>>55101537
Not this again Chanticleer, last time you just ended blowing him for 8 hours.

But he swore to never wear a dress again...

Well sure it worked but don't you think it's a little extreme?
>>
>>55104180
God of luck? If I played a follower of one:
Gerat sin: cowardice. You may run from a great danger, but if you're not taking a risk, you're not worthy of being a cleric of luck.
Lesser sins: blight (you don't give up unless you've tried and failed), pride (if you are a winner today, it does not make you a winner forever, or a better person than losers), greed (wealth is easy come easy go).
>>
>>55104462
Followup: and of course, my spell would not be called detect evil for that matter.

>>
>>55106347
good and evil are relative terms. To the goblins, human's are evil for taking their ancestral lands.

Being a dick, however, is universal.
>>
>>55106368
I don' t know what that is. I just know that Paladins swear to a God, therefore, that God's morality is their morality.
>>
>>55106374
>good and evil are relative terms. To the goblins, human's are evil for taking their ancestral lands.
>Therefore, the question of "what is evil" has an objective answer and thus the question of "what, exactly, pings as evil" is a stupid question and OP is dumb.

Again, what the fuck are you saying.
>>
>>55106394
Your incredibly specific choice of hypothetical scenario was gone over in a manga called "Goblin slayer".

Basically, it goes over the fact that if left alone, the little bastards will grow up to be just as bad as their ancestors, attacking and harassing people all the same.
>>
>>55106410
Not everyone agrees on what is good or evil, and trying to define complicated things in simple terms is a goddamn nightmare if the DM feels like being a dick.

>>55106374

>>
>>55106441

You're the one saying that the spell detect evil has no problems and doesn't need to be fixed, yet you literally just pointed out the largest one.

Nope. Just intense trauma and goblin autism.
>>
>>55106504
Sounds like whiny emo crap.
>>
>>55106497
I have no idea what is going on any more. I don't think anyone said that Detect Evil is broken.

Personally, I don't think Detect Evil was broken because it works within the game play system set up. Consistent rules and whatnot.
>>
>>55106524
Not really, actually.

The trauma thing doesn't come up till later on, and the autism thing is sorta the point of the series as a whole.
>>
>>55100496
I was granted the power to detect evil by my God, who defines evil. I trust in my holy sight with the same faith that I hold for Him.

If you are willing to accept that the government will not uphold it's own laws for some portions of it's people, then you are willing to accept domination. This is completely unacceptable and flies against the greatest strengths that have built western civilization. You want to preserve the idea of a "white only" west, which never existed, and never will exist. The fact is that many people came together to build great nations of wealth and power. You have benefited from these places, and you seek to destroy the foundation of them, with the idea of preserving them.

You are the destruction of the west.

Americans came from many places, and in every single wave of immigration came feelings of anti-immigrant sentiment to that group. When that group settled in, they were accepted as part of normal Americana. You wouldn't have American beers if it weren't for German immigrants, for example.
And just how does a global Jewish conspiracy operate without internal whistleblowers in 2017? These people cannot even agree on their own religion, or whether Israel should exist.
Before you go on with your flawed ideology, ask yourself that. How can a grand globe spanning conspiracy thrive in the time when information is freely available?
Ask yourself why is it that only the white supremacist groups, which are certainly outside of the conspiracy, ever "blow the whistle" on it?

Seriously, what is with all the bitching about participation trophys? I remember doing extracurricular sport in high school, which was decades ago at this point and getting them. It's not remotely a new thing and kinda missing the point of them, they were for rewarding the hard work put into something and remembering the time you spent together. Getting kids out, every second day after school to put in a few hours batting practice is a serious investment of time.

Heck, companies have been doing them for decades. Giving long-time employees a symbol of all the work they put in over the years in the form of a watch or such even if they were not the #1 employee for all that time.

It's odd to me that this is supposed to say something about the inferiority of black people, when if you add a third bar for "ashkenazi jew" there's a similar gap in which whites are precisely as inferior. Awfully convenient that whites are exactly the right amount of smart.

It's this sort of divisive horseshit that keeps democrats in power. So what if black people aren't as smart? Who gives a shit if its genetic or just shitty schooling since school quality is based on real estate values? None of that fucking matters. You will know the mettle of a man by how well he treats his lesser man. Fuckweasles who treat dumb people with condescension and disrespect are everything that's wrong with the neoliberal elite. Don't fall for their trap nazi-dude. The black working class could be your ally if you didn't keep waving this white supremacy flag around. They're fully aware they're getting fucked by the democrats. They're just more worried rednecks will fuck them worse.

If you're really about intelligence as the metric of racial superiority, just fucking sterilize yourself and donate all your money to Israel.

>censoring every single right wing and nationalist thing
Son, no they're not. They're blowing it up in the front page all day every day. That's exactly my point. Nothing rallies up the liberal base like a big scary nazi.

Media influence/bias/slant is very real, and what you call "jew" is really just "rich elites in general". The same shit happens in literally every nation in history by the ruling class, only there aren't jews in every nation in history (like China or Saudi Arabia for instance). Jews just happen to end up being powerful in a free society because they coordinate very well with an international support network, and trading favors is how you actually get wealthy- never mind the lies you were told as a child about hard work or brilliance. Either of those make you somebody's employee- not the guy who employs. And the guy who employs is the one with all the real money and therefore real power.

What you don't understand yet is how natural selection applies to a news cycle. A news cycle that is shared survives. A news cycle with which people agree is not shared, because it is uninteresting. A news cycle which people disagree with causes them to post replies (think trolling with bait)- just like I am now. You weren't alive before the internet but I was- and news was different back then. The money wasn't tied to how many clicks you get. And more importantly, controversy and rage sustain a news story for months.

The unambiguous murder of Eric Garner by the NYPD and subsequent acquittal made news 2 months before Ferguson and Michael Brown. Why was the latter a huge year long story that caused riots and not the former? Because in Ferguson the cop was *right*, the witnesses lied, and that stirred controversy. The riots, the protests, the BLM movement- all great to fill a 24hr news cycle. But it wouldn't have been possible if some people didn't take the bait and say "wait a minute, I think the cop was right".

Jews don't need to murder. They're not that desperate. It's really easy not to sin when the temptation isn't there. Sorta like how there's this invisible line in American history above which everyone found it real easy to condemn slavery and below which 60% of the GDP crucially depended on it and the economy in those regions is shit to this very day.

Likewise, when you can't trust the police and the only job that will hire you is drug dealer, the only justice you'll find is the .357 in your pocket.

Not one of you fa/tg/uys have ever been that desperate in your lives. You have the time and luxury to spend countless hours on imaginary worlds as a hobby. I love that hobby too. But the reality when you grow up in disenfranchised poverty looks a lot different. My experience was rural rather than urban, but all the same.

>>55116261
The problem I have with racists is that they cherry pick their evidence the same way Christians cherry pick the bible verses they like and ignore the ones about people eating shellfish being put to death. Because if you actually look at the genetics of race, it is a real thing, but it doesn't track what we historically identify as race. For instance Asians are like 99% white. Much like whites, they're descendents of neanderthals. The superficial differences are apparent, but they don't reflect the fact that most of us are more genetically similar to an Chinaman than we are a white guy who is part 1/8th cherokee (i.e. over 50% of the south). Meanwhile Ethiopians and Nigerians have almost nothing in common, even though they both look black. If you fuckers actually got scientific, looked at the genotype and phenotype overlap, categorized people appropriately, and advocated that, then you'd have a coherent position. But right now you're just barking about some arbitrary bullshit that doesn't match the actual reality of race.

No, Asian Americans have higher IQ that whites because only highly qualified Chinese get visas to come to America, and everyone who can is getting the fuck out of China.

Motherfucker I've watched an angry mob beat a man to death in front of the police station for *reporting them for stealing* and then fist fight the police as a mob. China is goddamn Mordor.

Yes it is. In China. Which are basically genetically identical to Koreans. Who don't do that shit. And Japs, who do different fucked up shit but not conman related. All of which could be compared to the genocide and war crimes white people did throughout history too. Once again, economics seems to be more relevant in how morally upstanding a person is. Seems pretty consistent that when you're living in a modern economy, you suddenly no longer have the temptation to do morally dubious shit to survive.

Like, you're just fucking wrong on the science here bro. Orientals are basically the fucking same as Europeans. Much moreso than anyone who looks white but is even a drop negro or redskin, which is *almost all white americans*. Probably including you- whether you realize it or not. "Race" is a scientifically real thing. The "white" race is kinda a thing too, if you include mongoloids. YOU are probably not actually a member of that race though, despite your appearance. Which means your whole dogma is based on a fiction compared to the actual reality. You seeing the problem here?

And another thing that doesn't match up to the science: hybrid vigor. Inbreeding and racial purity gets you some interesting traits and diversity, sure. Bulldogs look pretty sweet, but they're also degenerate fucking cripples from birth. Hybrids consistently win out over a few generations by having the best traits of both varietals while the shit traits that keep getting passed back and forth finally die off.

See, my thing is- I really hate liberal smugness. It's so completely unwarranted. And I'm glad you see that too and want to stand up to it. But instead you're just being a smug dipshit in the opposite direction. If you want to talk about breeding as it applies to humans, fine. But maybe you should talk to a fucking farmer who actually breeds shit- like cattle or new varieties of tomato or something. Somebody who actually knows what the fuck they're doing.

What? ANON! Most DMs force THEIR opinion of evil on to you and always tends to be slightly different from DM to DM to Player.

This dm ASKS you what YOU define it as. This is the god-send to avoid retarded alignment arguments. Your spell works the way YOU the player perceive it.

The answer has been in front of your nose the entire time, dearest anon.

That answer is called David Hume.

"You see this chart? Anything that, where it says "alignment" on their character sheet, has any of these three things, or an abbreviation thereof, written in. It Also detects entities from places which are inherently evil, and thingies with the evil subtype."

>Pause.
"Actually, asking a man to establish a clear definition of evil? Sounds like the kinda thing an evil person would do to corkscrew their way out of the ass whipping they are on the short list for."
>Close book
"You don't go asking the wizard how high the amperage is on their lightning bolts now do you? What amount of Ohms there are in the ogre's body, do you? What the frictional coefficient of their grease spell is, and how it adheres to a surface. If you want to engage in junior college philosophy, don't be surprised when technical school engineering responds."

Guys, I detected an error in the narrative. Natsocfaggot said he just got out of high school, but implies he was around when /new/ was transitioned into /pol/ back in 2011 and refers to "old /pol/" which was allegedly filled with Nazi's. The only conclusion is a violation of GR2 for what could be up to seven years.
Turns out aryan nigger was the summer all along.

>Well it WAS /new/ - news, m00t just wanted to decry us as "people who are contrarian" hence the name change. I still have some old /new/ infographs and shit too.
>decry us as "people who are contrarian"
>us
>I still have some old /new infographics
>still
Hand tipped too early. Remember, we're masters of deception, and your honest anglo blood makes you a terrible liar.

>us
Referring to NatSocs and rightwingers as a whole, not us as in /new/ or /pol/.
>still
They aren't posted on /pol/ as much but they are still there, and many are still on infinity.

This

People are puting to much effort into the questions of what is evil, is there is evil, can in be defined, what is good, etc.

Barring it being a central part of the themes of the campaign taking a hard look at the hard matter is not helpful. If it is a central part of the themes of the campaign try to narrow it down to a few issues and logical works in the world.

>Put on the spot, start panicking but remember a certain quote from Witcher 3
>"Evil is Evil. Lesser, greater, middling… Makes no difference. The degreee is arbitary. The definition’s blurred. If I’m to choose between one evil and another… I’d rather not choose at all"

I thought detect evil wasn't to detect anything evil in the area. Isn't it for if you already see/hear something and want to know if that something is evil?

>I haven't so much as read the wikipedia article on post-modernism.

Why does everyone who bitches about it seem to know nothing about it?

No, it's >>55106121 but it works within 30 feet so the guy your replying too would be delusional even if this was a real problem.

I took a 4-month literature "science" course and I can't give a fuck what postmodernism is formally, all I know is all given examples of it in terms of drama, poetry and epic were utter shit in terms of quality and apparently the post-modernism movement is to blame for making quality unimportant for art.
Luckily, certain aspects of popular culture still retain value for quality because there's a market for well-written books and theater. Unfortunately music not so much anymore.
