[QUOTE="Oofta, post: 7818439, member: 6801845"] One other note on this whole topic. I've played characters with a variety of alignments over the years, although I wouldn't play an evil PC again (and only did for a short period of time). I even had a PC utter the words "I don't share" when an NPC offered to share the artifact that would allow them to rule the world*. So I could come up with a PC that could play this mod. I'd probably even have fun playing them. I just don't want to be forced to play a specific type of PC in order to get the most out of a mod. Which is too bad because it sounds like it was well produced. I'm just waiting for the mod to come out where good aligned PCs get some extra special bonus or evil PCs have negative effects for being evil. Not in a DM empowerment way, not in a "if you do something illegal and get caught it might have a minor negative consequence". Something along the lines of being forced to be LG (which would actually be kind of funny for a CN/CE PC) or not receiving boons from an angelic being that make the mod significantly easier. Because the other way around? Getting penalized for being good? Happens far too often. [I]*The PC was true neutral and didn't really want to rule the world in the first place. Too much paperwork. He just wanted the artifact because it would make him immortal and he was an atheist.[/I] [/QUOTE]
