And for those of you who don't know what MPD stands for.

As a member of the Richard Lovers Club, i glady give my undeath to defend Richard.
I fully agree with Sarah's summary of the matter
Richard is not "soft" and never will be.
However, he is not as evil as he once was, as he admits on Page 158

well lets face it guys if richard continues as he is then he is going to become nicer and nicer

Can't we agree on him bouncing between Chaotic neutral and Chaotic evil/Lawful Evil "Village episode"

richard is not soft and he would kill anyone who says he is.

+1 experience points.

Richard will never be 'good' he may gain goals, but will always be the sociopathic killer of worlds i know and love.

^ thank you =D

Richard isn't soft, and the people who think he is, will face his raccons and animated chipmunks, nuff said.

Looks like this thread may generate a few experience points

Sadly my Charisma is max out at very low and everyone hates me. Reason to maxing out intellegence and Strength.


But in DnD rules warlocks can only go as high as Neutral which includes Lawful neutral so ya he might not become a lawful goodie tooshoes like cale, but willing to dish out the punishment with a attitude for doing what must be done (Village episode, freezing the Elf, rescuing the crystal trapped mages) while returning to a 100% delightful eye goaging(SP) evil we all enjoy.

hehe i voted fwoosh


and maybe



anywho


i think hes just asking to like a badass but hes going to turn out extremely evil or nice

im leaning over to the nice just from what i;ve seen


he tries to hard to be evil...

In WoW RPG rules, all locks above level 10 are evil, unless they designate their character as uncorrupted at character creation, where they gain less feats.

Richard is epic, therefore above level 20, and he is certainly not uncorrupted.

If by trying to hard to be evil you mean slaughtering whole villages and armies for poops an giggles.... something tell me he is evil, and loves it, and i love him for it.

Define evil...

e⋅vil
  /ˈivəl/ Show Spelled Pronunciation [ee-vuhl] Show IPA
–adjective
1. morally wrong or bad; immoral; wicked: evil deeds; an evil life.
2. harmful; injurious: evil laws.
3. characterized or accompanied by misfortune or suffering; unfortunate; disastrous: to be fallen on evil days.
4. due to actual or imputed bad conduct or character: an evil reputation.
5. marked by anger, irritability, irascibility, etc.: He is known for his evil disposition.


Now people tell me this does Richard do what he does for evil purposes? Nay just because one person sees them as evil does not necessarily make it evil... Human perception is what makes things good or evil... Richard only goes around slaughtering villages and killing little animals (except the rabbit mount) because he enjoys it!!


AND!!!!!! Look at this Panel 4 of this page... Cale teaches us a good lesson !! Lesson in evil

I agree that Richard is not going soft, nor will he, this page though has to be one of the best written and illustrated pages in the entire LFG library. It adds to Richards' mystery and illustrates a bit of his personality at the same time.

With the D&D references I'm sure I'm amongst other Roleplayers here so Imagine if you will...Imagine spending hundreds of years gaining power, spending hundreds of years exercising that power to fulfill every wish, notion and whim. It would get a little boring, so why keep doing the same thing over and over again? The fact that he's found 'A' path to follow that seems to be leading him back to his memories of life is quite interesting. It's much more interesting to me to find out who Richard is than what Cale does, but that's just my opinion.

so you basically gave me a run around reading that

never really stating if u think he has indeed gone soft

lol Gothic... I try to keep opinions out because who cares we still love him!

Hm... I agree

/face palm
wont begun to explain anything anymore

Have we finally broken you're spirit?

im going to bed -.-

night

good job providing evidance and that page was awesome.. ;P
never rly notice how it all starts to fit until now

Cause you don't look at the damn pictures or keep up with the damn comic

i dont, but i have reread it and

Accrding to his trail, which he admitted to being guilty
he HAS gone soft...

He never has a TRAIL but i do remember a Trial, and he never says he has gone soft, he just saysx he has found a goal and must travel with a goody-to-shoes to achieve it.

but it compares him in then and now

and obiously states not verbatim but it states none the less hes gone soft

gotta love how more than 50% of the vote is simply for fwoosh

lol includeing mine

No, not neccissatily, just becasue one has gotten a goal and is traveling with a soft croud doesn't mean one has gone soft.

Richard? Soft? Surely you jest.

Did you not notice that the town he's mayor of is full of undead citizens? And that mere toddlers are vicious enough to rip out the heart of a full grown man with their bare hands?

A "soft" person can't command that kind of people.

And plus, there's still some fwooshing going on. -nodnod-

I do not believe he is going soft, just potentially adjusting his d&d 'alignment'.

No, he is so chaotic evil, screw you

Richard=Pure Ownage.

It's as simple as that. To me, the secret to Richard's evilness is that he enjoys causing pain and suffering. To me, the debate about Richard's not being evil because he doesn't know any better strikes me as pointless. If anything, his complete lack of empathy and inability to tell right from wrong and the glee he gets from causing pain makes him that much more evil.

He speaks the truth... which is obvious, so alass, no experience.

My reply.(iz very Loquacious)

Richard's not soft.
He's Squishy.

For using the work Loquacious ... kinda right and for having such an awsome youtube video to exprese your feelings to not getting an experience point.

Here. +1 Experience Points.... but for having need to get a pity experience point. -1 Experience Points.

Richard can't go soft. His whole character base is that he does what he wants when he wants. If he wants to kill he does (frequently). But if he doesn't then he doesn't.

The best part is that he never Doesn't want to kill!

True, very true. That's what makes him lovable.

ive provd hes gone soft...
how can u keep denying it?!?

Again, its not so much that he has gone soft as he is not a bored as he was before. His encounter with Kale has actually made his life (unlife) interesting. Ergo, he no longer feels the pressing need to invent new and interesting ways for others to die long slow deaths. Although he still does this (just to keep in practice)

You havn't, you have proven what i already know, that he has a goal now, hugely different from being soft.

He is no longer an entity of unfocused violence... therefore the total amount of violence will go down, although the evil behind the carnage has not...

a goal which makes him no longer kill so much as he use to

for example he even listens to Cale now!!!!

so poof theres proof

Ah, but Cale is something like his evil apprentice in training

Technically, it is not possible to rule a village of undead, even one called "Pretty Pretty Unicorn", while being soft.

Richard has always had that kind of humor. He was being sarcastic.
