Hench me.

If anything I would say it goes to show just how good this setting is, that PCs are way more concerned with other things than to be so bored as to go hunting down every single Necromancer just for existing. I'd argue that people just didn't have anything better to do in v4. A lot of good/neutral PCs want to get out of 99 and stay out of 99 therefore keeping a place they don't even want to be in, in the first place, "clean" isn't on their agenda.

Also, I agree with this.

I want to comment on the IC 'morality' of thieving and banditing (property crimes) specifically --

Without commenting on how it should be weighed on balance with other more metaphysical crimes like necromancy and consorting with fiends, I like that this chapter takes issues of property more seriously. It makes the server feel more realistic and mature -- in earlier chapters there was sometimes too much of a preponderance of romanticising thieves and brigands for my tastes. People loathing property crime also is perfectly in line with the server hub of this chapter, Ring 99 and Ticker Square more specifically, being all about COMMERCE and trade! Especially given that the DMs and builders have gone out of their way to make trading, merchanting and commerce much more dynamic, viable and dominant in this chapter, from a technical and design point of view.

So yes, if you're playing a thief, robber or bandit or whatever, your PC probably will be despised.

This has nothing to do with OOC morality. IRL, I don't believe in private property but that doesn't mean the chapter shouldn't.

When the unique power was used on this royal relic bundle to unbundle it, this happened. (The bundle was lost and no items were spawned.)
