Pretty basic question. Sister wants to be good (elven wizard), brother wants to be evil (human, Black Guard). Any suggestions on how to make them both hapy with an adventure that would let them do this?

convince the sister to run neutral instead of good? Problem with this is that the rother's blackguard will likely dominate the direction of the party. I'd try to convince him down a different route then that. Blackguards aren't really that great anyhow...

Have the two PCs fight to the death.

The one left standing rules the other out and defines the rest of the party.

happens fairlyoften, usually after the first NPC says "so, who is your party leader? I'd like to talk to them..."

they argue, a spell gets slung, a sword is drawn and usually? the balck guard is still alive(assuming he saved a few times...

Give them shared goals - fighting a common enemy, for example. They'll still argue about methods, but if the only way to save their country from destruction by some threat is to band together, they might be forced to compromise. I think it can be done, but it requires a threat that's pretty imminent.

Good luck.

Have them roleplay it out. Enjoy the fun.
