   While a while back I suggested that a Paladin would not work with
   a CN thief - I quite agree that in cases of the party both pc's
   could tramp along with each other.

   The Paladin may not lay hands on the CN if he's upset, but-
   you have brought out a VERY important point:

	A PALLADIN MUST REMEMBER THAT WHILE HE UPHOLDS LAW AND
	GOOD HE IS ALSO RESTRICTED BY THOSE SAME BELIEFS !!!!!
		   ----

   People of different beliefs can work together.  If a few do not
   like the actions of one they can first warn him, if this doesn't
   work they can take actions like geas and quest (NOTE: the pc
   can act like he's quested even if he makes his saving throw and
   the others should have to glean this by themselves!) and finally
   expulsion or death.

   expulsion for minor problems like minor thieving or game disturbance-
   with possible reconsideration later.

   death for unspeakable thievery (like messing with the Mage of the Valley
   or Grandfather Assasin and thus placing the whole party in danger) or
   gross evil acts, and the like.


   I'm sure all of you are capable of judging.
