Okay, setup first. Thanks to player requests during city creation, my local Accorded Neutral Ground is a Barbecue house, officially Ingram's Bar and Grill... unofficially "
the Flesh Pit".
Things started getting interesting when, during a big nasty combat a few weeks ago, one of my players said that, if he died, his next character was going to be a ghoul ninja--and that he could function within the city without eating anybody thanks to the Flesh Pit.
The idea intrigued me, so during the last session, one of the nicer PCs had a compelled moment of mercy and now has a new houseguest: a 16-year-old blind ghoul fortuneteller named
Delphine.
So, the first question is A) do you guys think she's sustainable as a regular NPC without having to eat anyone? B) Is she eventually redeemable? (especially given her young age?) and related, C) are ghouls "always chaotic evil" as the saying goes, or is it just their nature, nurture and histories working against them?
Yes, I realize that I'm sounding like a vampire fanboy lite. But, while I want this to be a regular NPC (for the RP opportunities, if nothing else), if the general consensus is that ghouls are bad to the bone, even when they don't have to be, I'll rethink this character, as I've obviously missed something.
Alright, I just know that this is going to tangent
fierce by the end of the first page, maybe within the first ten posts, so here we go.
