[QUOTE="Bendris Noulg, post: 1301973, member: 6398"] I use a modified version of the Alliance/Apotheosis system Chaosium released as OGC in Dragonlords of Melnibon'e. Essentially, you gain Law, Chaos or Balance Points (I added Good and Evil Points), and when you gain a ratio of points (i.e., one "pool" clearly higher than the rest) you gain an Alliance (essentially determines how [i]protection from [X][/i] spells and the like work on you, prereqs for certain Feats and/or Prestige Classes, etc.). When the points associated to your Allegiance reach a critical mass (as printed: 100+), you gain an Apotheosis (essentially becoming a "Champion", although this can be tamed down to becoming prereqs for better Feats and Prestige Classes). It does change the feel of the game to a degree; rather than having any of the Alignments being "forces that define the universe" (PH, Chp 7), they instead become the accumulated sum of the actions of mortals, with your Alignment Points indicating clearly what your character has contributed to the cosmos.
