@Susaga@pinkdrunkenelephants you are not getting the real twist. Replace the sword with a fake, completely non-magical one.it doesn’t have to be evil. The paladin only has to believe it only hurts evil people.
I did consider that. I like it not affecting evil creatures cause it might make the Paladin question things if it fails to harm one of the BBEG’s minions. Whether they question which side their on or the sword itself is up to them.

It’s still wrong as it would still be the DM’s fault for manipulating someone else to harm other people.
Or did going full Joker become moral while I was away?
