It's because you don't understand what Lawful Good is in DnD.
You are confusing Good and Lawful.
Lawful Good characters are boring to play and for a good reason.
What it means is that you must always try to save EVERY life. A Lawful Good character believes everyone can be redeemed and everyone must be saved and shown the proper path. They are missionaries that want to unify the world under peace through peaceful actions. That is what Lawful Good is in DnD. What YOU want to play, is Chaotic Good and that's Oath of Vengeance.
You simply can't understand the categories of roles in such fantasy world, it is not the game's fault, but that you can't accept rules... it is how this works here, accept it or leave. Lawful, neutral and chaotic exist for a reason. It is like if you would start to complain over the rules of a tabletop game, it is not others' fault that you didn't learn the rules of a game.
Actually he is play Chaotic Good since those Duergars are indeed Chaotic Evil or Neutral Evil at best.
Oh please, given how often lawful good enforcers will attack on sight and / or declare death is the only correct punishment this statement this must ring hollow even to you.
your interpretation of lawful evil is also very much off.
or you bad guy because they npc and you kill them - its unfair!
Lawful Good characters will never do that, if you played a game where they did, then you DM does not understand Lawful Good.
and this never happens in obsidian or bioware games
Larian do they thing, but its just seems scripted
thats all what matters
its an obvious answer
My friend has never lost his oath of vengance for killing rather than reasoning.
Oath of the ancients is almost as bad as Batmans "reasoning".
I mean, everyone, literally every person that plays DnD here has proven you wrong. Just accept that you picked Neutral Good and wanted to play Chaotic Good. I've done this mistake countless times in my DnD games and that's why I will never pick Lawful Good or Neutral X ever again.
Fact is, you don't seem to be playing DnD but instead play homebrew games that are based on DnD.
i mean just imagine even if you follow logic people above
you just standing watcing this drow just send gnome to the lava
and "precious life" being deleted
innocent gnome girl and being killed - and you cant even start a fight instantly - because writer in this moment really just want for this scene to be this way
and the way it is its just look cringe
oh, this intepretation might not be the best on the market, but thats just the interpretation from the sitiuation OP found himself in. He just killed the dreugar because he deemed them evil and while his alignment might more fit to chaotic good, the lawful evil also fits the narrative
they slavers - they criple and hit gnomes for no reason and shout at them
so you just suppose to help them
i hope you will not argue with me on that
I guess you still don't understand.
Imagine that: What do you expect of a policeman that found you hiding a sex slave in your basement? Kill you on sight, or get you to jail for trial?
oath is ok
but if YOU kill slaver duergar - you BAD!
i cant laugh more
