[QUOTE="taitzu52, post: 1676589, member: 21465"] Again, I am going to throw my vote in to avoid a totally iconoclastic/rebellious basis for the covenant. I think that working within the Order of Hermes will allow us to use an abundance of source material that I, frankly, wouldn't want to put on anyone to rewrite by themselves. I think it would allow for much more subtle intrigues if we retain some strictures, and not define ourselves in such a black and white fashion, at least in that rather large respect. My view on the Order is that it is large and loose enough to have a massive amount of socio-political workings within it's own structure. It also allows us to play off of established canon much more easily. And just for the record, I don't wanna be a funky druid, guys!!! :( Again, I enjoy the more subtle aspects of this game. I'm not trying to make this a vanilla covenant, but I think that some confinements present a challenge that is just as enjoyable, and malleable, as those that are totally off the beaten path. Now, let's talk about the devil....... :] So are we good, are we bad, should we even be asking? What forces exist aside from us? Is the Church corrupt, and if so, how? What else is out there, demons, werewolves....the French?!?!? But really, all of these can be interposed back on the Order of Hermes at large as well. It's harder to fight an entity that you're supposed to be loyal to. But hey, I'm just throwing my vote around. Shoot it down at will. Or not! TZ [/QUOTE]
