Re: OOC5
Well... I can try my hand at convincing you... I mean, my case is pretty compelling IC. :p
I have the trust of the entire party, including prophesied heroes like a Paladin and a powerful cleric of Pelor. Not exactly types that take kindly to evil creatures.
I have the trust of a Celestial figure known for not liking succubi and other evil creatures.
I have the trust of a powerful, Epic Level Hero of Legend.
I'm an obvious expert on magic and demons.
It might help if I point out that - unless the GM corrects me - it is not THAT unusual for creature's in this setting to have atypical alignments. So, IC, your character might reasonably conclude that this sort of thing is at least possible.
Also, you have an item which allows you to reliably check for evil, and the aforementioned Epic Level Hero of Legend has verified that this creature, however surprisingly, is not evil.
I had the Angel in front of everyone dispel any enchantments upon me... so I'm not under the thrall of the succubi, nor was there opportunity for me to be. Certainly the idea that it has charmed ALL of the party members INCLUDING the Epic Level Hero of Legend is less likely than that its got an atypical alignment.
An alignment that you have had the ability to verify, and could CERTAINLY at least verify to your satisfaction by consulting the Tao. After all, the Epic Level Hero of Legend can probably handle the Succubus. I'm just guessing, but that seems like its a good guess.
Last, but certainly not least, you were just warned to not do ANYTHING by a "known to you" Epic Level Hero of Legend... so unleashing any sort of action is probably a bad idea.
Now, I'm sure that even a reasonable person could find some of those things uncompelling - but all of them at once? Altogether?
I just cannot see how that's not crazier than trusting a succubus.
And... what Karza said. :p
