[quote=@Zarkun] Found it again. Phrasing was bad in last post. Killing was an instinct instilled in him from a young age, but he was also taught that the only time it was OK was when it was to protect others. In his mind, knocking them out risked them escaping and making another plan that could hurt someone. He was doing what he thought was right and I intend to write his explanation that way. [/quote] [quote=@Silver Fox] Yeah, in a guild supposedly known for the rule no killing xD If he's a soldier, he should stay a soldier. Not a Guild Member. And again, he chose kill first, not trying for a alternative when he probably easily could by how easy he took out three A members. It be one thing if it was a battle like Edo-Maddox that was actually quite straining. But that didn't happen. Only one that will probably end up like that is Hemlock which will probably end up happening. And I dunno much of Melina, but she's apparently killed quite a lot. Who I don't know. XD Though, now that I think about it, Damian has killed more than her since I've been here. [/quote] I probably be on the side saying that Damian doesn't seem like a good guy since he seems to be the one that killed the most while being part of the guild. Yes, he did it to protect the people he cares about. But there's the rule of no killing in a light guild, yet Damian does it. Sure he was trained as a soldier a long time ago, but it feels like as a human being and ex soldier, he still has that decision to decide if killing is morally correct in any situation. Did he have to kill two or three people, I don't really know, but does killing people justify for his actions as being good or make him better than those villains who were doing something bad? There's also the characters that Phoenix Wing is fighting, we don't know too much about them. However, what if they have a good or bad family and/or friends and they hear about their death, they probably won't be happy and see Damian as some bad guy. Would Damian have to kill those people who might seek vengeance. I don't know if you know Kagura yet in the show (but you probably do since I think you're in that arc where she appears) but that girl just wanted revenge on Jellal for killing her brother Simon, although Jellal didn't have his head straight then. And I think she didn't like Erza for a bit since she couldn't save Simon, I think. Maybe there could of been another way to stop them instead of killing, but it already happened so I guess we'll see what happens later. Edit: I just wanted to say my thoughts if we don't want to continue this conversation, it's cool.
