As far as I know the size of the enemy doesn't matter in terms of alignment.
It is only the alignment itself that matters.

Which I guess is why so many evil people are killing all the small guards in Kalaman.
It doesn't take a whole lot of time, and they're rather goodaligned.

Dragon turtles are, by no means, tiny!

I am pretty sure dragon turtles, like most dragons, have evil align?
Thanks for pointing that out. However, Arman did mention previously in this thread that some NPCs were "extra-evil", having more than the normal effect on killers alignment, and a quick round on the bloodsea should not drop me that much. All those creatures are tiny (compared to me), so should have barely noticeable align-hit.

Unfortunately, all evil melee people (all 3 of us, lol!) are still competing for the chance to kill Baxter every day, as any prolonged xp-grind will push us towards good-aligned.
No idea if they are extra evil, I doubt it? Thematically those sea creatures doesn't feel overly evil, so it would seem odd if they were extra evil?

None of the sea creatures have additional penalties to alignment like Baxter/Verminaard... but lie Cherek pointed out dragon turtles are by nature evil.

However the shark, which I assume is a creature you have to kill a lot of, is based on a calia variant that is quite evil. I'll change that to a neutral aligned creature over the coming days.

Ahh, that could be it. There were quite a lot of spawned, unkilled sharks at the time, perhaps someone short on time was looking for only the turtles. Thank you!

Ok, sharks... while violent, are now unaligned.

What function does "while" serve in this sentence?
What does being aligned or not have to do with violence?
