They aren't all LE, but since they are still low level (like my own
PC) they haven't done anything drastically yet. Yes as long as they
don't break the laws they are perfectly welcome. I just wondered what
kind of laws there were to break, like can you give me some example (
other that 'thou shalt kill no other man bla bla bla') of laws in
such a frontier country as Dhoesone. Next to that I'm too busy
putting a leash at the guilds, which are far to powerfull, so they
can go by unnoticed for some time. I did warn them not to break any
laws before we even had finished the character building proces, they
all agreed, so they know my wrath will come if they don't anyway.

Then again, even as much as I would like to do that when the time
comes, there is an assassin in the party as well (which of course
isn't known to any other than the DM and the assassin herself). So I
might expect a troublesome ruling.

RE: Evil parties w/LN regent

Sebastiaan -- Frankly, this sounds like an impossible situation to me. Your
regent is, hopefully, looking out for his people and trying to do his best
for them, as he sees it, which is from a lawful viewpoint. Evil people,
especially powerful ones, are likely to bring harm to your citizens, and,
unless they are all lawful evil, break a lot of laws in the process. If I
were your regent, I'd either get them as far from my country as possible, or
find something to convict them of (shouldn't be too hard) and string 'em up.
But that might just be my anti-evil-PC side talking . . .

Thats exactly the same alignment problems I had in my game.
I have 2 LE PCs and the regent LN.
Most of the time those evil crack eatchother and tell the regent
just to shutup. Actually they have saved his regency also several
times. They (evil PCs) both try to use the Barony for their own
success. But as they are reasonable people, they understand that
to use a strong state for theyr own is much more usful than to use
a poor one. So now they actually HELP :)) he ruler
to build up the state. (actually they already got ruler to invest both
with vassalage. The Baron controls directly only two provinces of 7.)
I dont see any problem as long as they have sword loyality to the ruler.
If they break it.... (but they cannot, they have all a spell cast them
that forces them to work together ... or die together).

Ok enough about my game.. I hope that provided you with an example..
