To add to your point on, it was the Lawful side of Cecil which made him follow the orders of his king. Cecil, himself, wasn't entirely evil but his actions reflected evil deeds that he began to deplore.

Seems like Lawful Evil to me Smile

That's the point. Big Grin

As for playing a Dark Knight in a band of non-evil, there are a few ways you can do this. First off, Lawful Evil means you abide by a certain code. It could be to obey your leader/ruler/master, to respect certain codes of honor or to follow through with a particular promise. Either way, you aren't out slaughtering villages because you felt like it.

Something else I've done is downplay the evil aspect and roll with a pseudo-Knight, as the character didn't wish to reveal his abilities to the party because the character felt that the party would likely reject him (due to working for an emperor that held a less-than-favorable reputation). Because he needed their help in accomplishing his goal, to reclaim the source of the emperor's power that was taken from him, he felt it necessary. Though, when they weren't in sight, he would often break out his powers in order to clean up a situation more quickly (plus, he enjoyed when he could cut loose, it gave him a thrill).
