this is not possible
*turns swiftly and walks off, deep in thought*
...I really gotta get an alt. account. It isn't menacing to see a stick figure named "Kagrama" talking about eternal evil and darkness.
But that is not the point. Light and darkness, good and evil are deciding factors here. One side controls necromancy, traditionally a dark art, forcing the denizens of Dead Side over to the plane of the living, and the other controls magic, typically a light art, using either faith in one's deity or a personal source of strength to manipulate mana to great effect. People have made their choices on these factors, if nothing else. Others may make their choice on personal character, but it is still a factor.

Azrael Heavenblade obviously shouldn't have said:
I agree, it is possible for one to change from what could be considered as evil to that of good, as Drakana forsook the life of a shadowknight of Innoruuk and joined Obelisk in his quests in my stories, as well as how Azrael's rival, Joordan fell from grace into evil in serving Sir Lucan Dlere.But that is not the point.

You're being rather selective as to which traditions you acknowledge.

Do not misinterpret the meanings of light and dark.. with that of good and evil. It is this type of blindness that causes needless killing of others due to prejudices. Have you ever thought.. for once, that necromancy can be used for good? I've seen it.. I know it can be. Just because someone has an affinity for a certain magic type or a certain calling does not make them inherently evil. Not all dark elves are evil.. just like not all high elves are good. There are truths hidden in lies that are masquerading as something else entirely different. It is like an onion.. there are many layers to an onion.. You cannot judge things so simply as black and white for to do so would mean putting what could mean countless innocents to death by simply categorizing them as something unwanted within your world.
This is why balance should always be kept..

sadf I liked your other sigpic.
As I have said before, neither can exist without the other, we just choose which side we give free vent to.

Azrael Heavenblade had this to say about Reading Rainbow:
Have I not said as much Mysere? You ignore some of my points, which defeats the purpose of my saying them. While traditionally each art grants a certain mental image of its typical user, there are those who venture away from the norm, indeed, I gave examples earlier. In fact, one might say that Taran had experienced something similar as the comics have indicated, as well as Drysart being a little into darkness himself through his attraction to dark elven females.As I have said before, neither can exist without the other, we just choose which side we give free vent to.

What is all this Gobbledy-gook about light and darkness? I thought this was about kicking blue boy's candy-ass back to the Stone Age? Lets not confuse the issue with Ideals and Morals, which just take all the fun out of fighting and senseless violence. Lets concentrate on the matter at hand
kicking the dog-snot out of that pansy Taren and those who foolishly follow him.
But why is Terena threatening Vise when they're on the same side?
