Possible spoiler ahead....

So... realistically, since you lose no reputatoin, and Adalon is a bitch to you when you first talk to her... is there any reason that you wouldn't kill her? I just slaughtered her solo with my level 17 sorcerer and his simulacrum... and I see no downfall to doing so. I still get to escape all the same, I just don't get that crappy crossbow, or the mounds of experience that I DON'T need. So, any reason?

A lawful good dragon is a rare find in the game? The game is meant to be driven by the story, not kill everything along the way (unless you are in a hurry). The extra experience by doing it the long way might also be beneficial to a party of adventurers.

Uh....
Hmmmmm...

How about
ROLEPLAYING a good alignment? Good guys don't kill good guys ! I mean , my Archer's racial enemy is DRAGONS, and I left her alone....

Heh... roleplay in a single player game? Ha... that's funny. That would be like restricting your name to something fatasy-esque in your single player game even though no one will ever see it but you and maybe your friends. I do recall asking, realistically... If it benefits me, but does not fit my character... ack... why am I arguing with you all? There is no downfall to doing so. My appologies for asking.

just kill her like i did (but not first i recover the eggs first time)killed her solo whit undead hunter level17

err.. no reason I can think of. Didn't know there was NO rep penalty until I played Lord Raptor and killed the cow. Knowing that, she is doomed in every future game for being an arrogant b***h

Yes, there is little penalty to not role-playing alignment.

However, I think it makes the game more interesting. When I played an evil character, I took the chance to demand money before any job I did. I took 128 gold from Nalia and didn't clear out her castle. When I visited the Druids, I took the evil alternative offer (won't spoil that one). Yeah, I caught heck for it when I returned to Trademeet, but hey, I was evil.

BG2 has so many playability options, I like to save some for particular scenarios. I take the evil path and pick up Viconia and Korgan when I play an evil PC. I take the good path and pick up Anomen and Keldorn when I play a good PC. In my opinion, it makes the game even more fun to see what the next dialogue sequence will bring.
