I have no idea if or how evil/good karma will be pre present in DC. You might find this interesting though. I myself had no idea developpers sometimes make use of script contributers from outside until I read the list on DKS's. Imagine my surprise when I found the pseudonym of one of my own old school teachers, author in his free time. So I assume now this is a common phenomenon. It makes me wonder who're really the guys who wrote the crazy dialogues that make DKS a better game.
