As I go deeper into my game of Dragon Age I have affirmed a suspicion I had about myself. I set out to play my character as a real mean jerk of a man, but to no avail after threatening the life of the Revered Mother to get a key to free a prisoner I had true feelings of guilt. I wonder what it is that makes me feel guilty about a virtual action such as this? Why is it that I feel compelled to be good even if I set out determined to be bad? Something to think about I suppose.

it is because your human and you have a heart 
there was a study that showed 97% of people that play games with moral choices always pick the good choice 
2% pick bad but end up good and 1% stay bad the whole time

That's interesting because I started out as a good character but as soon as Morrigan joined my party I went evil.

There could be Dragons in space. Plus Dragon Age has Vulcans in it.... oh... wait.
