Allignment

There are a number of fundamental dichotomies, pairs of opposed universal forces in eternal struggle against their opposite. Characters may allign with one side of one dichotomy or choose to be agnostic to these conflicts.

The allignments are:

• Lawful vs. Chaotic
• Divine vs. Humane
• Noble vs. Humble
• Agnostic

Each allignment offers some questions that apply to all moves

Lawful

• Are you enforcing a local, cultural, or religious Law?
• Are you punnishing the guilty?
• Are you prioritizing an institution?

Chaotic

• Are you challenging an institution?
• Are you breaking someone’s chains?
• Are you stoking discent?

Divine

• Are you bringing a Divine prophecy to fruition?
• Are you sacrificing a generous mortal pleasure, furnishment, or nourishment?
• Are you rewarding the faithful at cost to yourself?

Humane
