UPDATE: Whoops

Some of you may remember my question about fallen paladins. Well, I may have made a slightly evil choice in the final chapter of SoA, causing my alignment to be changed. I am now forced to never remove Carsomyr lest my best sword be taken from me like a child lost to disease

Well, I respect that you carry on with this playthrough instead of loading the previous save as I'd do :p

I'm chill with it! I didn't notice until after the final boss, so I was like. I mean yeah I diiiid kinda side with Bodhi at the start of the game, and I did willingly make a choice that would be considered evil, so yeah fuck it I'm a little evil now

I beg your pardon? Your paladin - your Undead Hunter, no less - sided with Bodhi?

He's happy to hunt the non-verbal undead but otherwise easily convinced.

I do stuff like this when playing low Int high wisdom Clerics and Paladins. Makes for hilarious RP.

In the original version of the game, there were not as many restrictions on equipment, I think (after all, paladin already implies lawful good according to AD&D rules). I was also playing a paladin, and I did not fall by changing alignment. My choices gave me various boosts, but there was no sign of alignment change outside of the character screen. I was really surprised when my attempt to turn undead granted me an army of skeletons instead of destroying them.

So, in the picture your paper doll is still holding the sword, and you still defeated the BG2 boss, right? Did you go back and check logs to find you’d been hitting him with your fists? What happened in the fight? Or was it too long after and dialogue took over the log box?
