well...I think killing for "intent" sounds only right if you roleplay a lawful good character who determines to vanquish all the evils in fauren...and one who NEVER has any moment of "weakness" when she/he has "evil" thoughts.

also...in your group (suppose you're not soloing), you should not have TN character such as Jaheira, for they believe in that evil and good (intent as well as deeds) are NECESSARY to the being and becoming of the world.

also...to look at the big picture, what's the END of this evil vanquishing business? if the END is to get rid of all evils, and if somehow it can be done, in the end, there'll be no evil to reflect good, then how do you know you're good anymore? or is that because this evil vanquishing business can NEVER be done and so we can contiune to kill evil doers (or/and evil "thinkers") for we know there're always evil beings to reflect that we're good?

I myself like to play TN character because it's more close to my own personal perspective. Evil thoughts are always lurking somewhere beneath~~
