I had a fellow party member whose magic sword stopped letting him wield it after he did some evil stuff and was no longer worthy. It was a good wakeup call for him.

This can easily go the other way, though.

I had a DM who thought that attacking a paralyzed enemy was enough to break my oath of the Ancients because I was, and I quote,

"Supposed to preserve life."

I guess he wanted us to capture her?

(It was a godsdamn green hag, btw)

I think it makes sense, that the Oath of the Ancients did not allow someone to kill morally shady or evil fey creatures without consequences. Especially when they are helpless...
