[MRW]Can a Morag Tong assassin still be considered a good person?

[Black Swan Gauntlet]

Bit of an RP question, but forum activity seems fairly low...

The Morag Tong is fairly high-minded for an assassin's guild, what with their disdain for non-sanctioned killing and theft, and it's clear they operate with good intentions...but, of course, they still kill people for money.

I don't know. Can a hitman, even a legally authorized one operating on sacred principles, be considered good?

Quite frankly? I think so. Trading one life for the lives of others, despite the evil therein, inevitably leads to a good deed.

Only on Vvardenfell.

I guess...but apart from the odd command from Mephala here & there, all the Morag Tong's assignments come from Vvardenfell's wealthiest & most vengeful citizens - and given the moral turpitude prevalent among those folks, it's hard to believe that their targets are selected for the greater good of Morrowind. To be fair, though, most (but not all) of the contracts you get are targeted at people who seem to be part of this ruling class themselves.
