Hiya im nearing the end

and ive been fortunate to receive alot of help from you guys
as i was doing the trials i noticed that selfishness rewards were favourable to the evil [img]redface.gif[/img] and i was wondering is there anyway to receive the reward without becoming evil?
can a paladin become evil? im guessing not and do these stat changes carry over to TOB which im gonna get this weekend
on a sidenote
i was wondering how races affect your characters? is it primarily for the appearance or are there some passive bonuses that are not in the char info screen
thanks
