    Not really. They can catch themselves with their arms. Highly unlikely that they would die. Fine. Chains. My point is that Jasnah could easily have captured them instead of killing them. "Guilty for" does not mean "you can kill all of them if one attacks". Let's put it this way. If Jasnah had killed one of those men, two of the others had fled, and one of them had dropped his knife, fallen on his knees crying, and begged for mercy, would she be justified in killing him? Why do we have laws? To prevent and punish immorality. If you think legality is entirely separate from morality, why do you care about self defense? Self defense is a legal term.

    After eating all their friends.

    Fine. how about just their legs then? trip them first, then immobilize them afterwards. Or how about she soulcasts ropes around them? She's skilled enough for it. Does it? I was under the impression that it required more skill, not that more stormlight. Regardless, humans are much more invested than air, rocks, or clothes. Therefore, they are much harder to soulcast than even part of an object. Regardless, you say that once your life is threatened, you gain the right to use deadly force until the situation ends. Well, Jasnah killed the person who threatened her life. The situation was over. She can't kill people who didn't threaten her life, while they are not threatening her life but fleeing. Someone threatening to murder me does not give me the right to shoot their friend in the back as he runs away. Besides that, self defense sometimes requires you to do everything you can do escape the situation besides violence. Jasnah did the opposite.

    Tripping someone could kill them. Tripwires are not considered deadly force. That is still murder. She killed them because she wanted to kill them, not because of self-defense.

    Easy holding options: Clothes to metal or stone. Make a block of stone around their legs. Ground beneath them to tar. Yeah, but at that point, I stretches the grounds of reasonable belief. Besides that, we know she didn't think they were still a threat to her, because she went there to kill those men. Reasonable belief only matters in legality. Jasnah practically admits that she knew the other thieves were fleeing and killed them anyways, and considering her character, she would certainly recognize that they were running away. She would not lose herself to emotions such as fear.

    Yes. All three of those men were obviously running to go get reinforcements. After one of them TURNED TO FIRE IN FRONT OF THEIR EYES. They definitely had at least ten more guys willing to rush a soulcaster. They definitely didn't look so scared that Shallan Davar could easily see it. They definitely didn't trip over themselves in their panic as they fled, cursing, in opposite directions.

    I should note that self defense does not allow you to shoot people who are running away. And also that the individual needs to reasonably feel that their lives are in danger to kill. Running away removes the reason from the belief that unless you kill these people now, they will kill or do great bodily harm to you.

    Jasnah had plenty of time to internalize that information. I doubt she was ever anything other than completely analytical throughout the entire encounter. They manipulated the situation to kill criminals in a legal way. Thus they are hunting criminals, whatever their methods of doing so are.
  10. NameIess
    One of them did. The others ran away after the first one died. They no longer posed a direct threat to her. Self defense can only be used to prevent imminent injury and death, which the criminals who were running away did not threaten. 3. Is hunting down criminals and killing them without trial evil? Yes.
  11. NameIess
    Jasnah had effectively no chance of dying to those men. She also killed multiple of them while they were running away. Do you think that killing people while they run away after not making any direct attempts on her life was right? So you think Batman would be justified in doing so? To make it more real, do you think that anyone would be justified in doing so? If a person regularly hunted criminals in that way, would that be right or legal?
  12. NameIess
    So... It's like if batman pretended to be an old lady, then pulled out a shotgun and killed anyone who tried to mug him?

    One of them was a noodle.
  14. NameIess
    Great. Glad we agree. You just lost the game. As did I.
  15. NameIess
    By acknowledging the game's existence you begin to play whether you admit it or not
  16. NameIess
    But alas You cannot make others lose if you do not play the game yourself

    WTWTTS When you're a sociopath. (asking for a friend ) Good thing you're not a sociopath WTWTTS When you just ate your truthless's oathstone?

    @Ookla the Frustrated Look at it this way. If superman pretended to be weakened in order to fool Lex Luthor and some goons into attacking him, then attacked them as soon as they tried to kill him, brutally killing Lex Luthor while he was trying to run away, would that be right?
