    and I find the whole notion that Path of Radiance or Radiant Dawn challenges "preconceived notions" hilarious because the good characters are still all beautiful and kind and majestic while the bad guys are ugly inbred troglodytes. You can literally tell who's good or bad in half a second just by observing if their face has a visible deformity.
