[Mkguild] Cthulhu in Metamor

[Michael Bard]

So, it's morally right to kill Lutins because "everybody" knows their evil,
but it is not morally right to kill cultists because they keep their evil
"secret".  Got it.

Killing evil is only potentially correct dependent on popular perception.

Or, if a successful public relations campaign made all rat-morphs be evil,
killing them wouldn't be a crime either...  :)

And yes, you could make an argument that Yvarra should have gone "to the
cops" but due to her personality (thief remember?) she just doesn't trust
authority, and REFUSES to let anybody do anything for her.  Thus, she is
personality-wise incapable of asking for help.  That will change as the
story develops, but not yet.

P.S. Yes, the trial epilogue is going to be *FUN* to write.  :)
