Lawful by RAW indicates "honoring tradition" so I understand it's a bit awkward that such guys would like to change a functioning system. But like ComradeGnull said, they don't believe that they are chancing anything but instead returning to their roots. That was a very good point.He wants the have elections and all the high-priests would have the right to vote. Basically he already has certain majority of all the votes.Yes, I think the best way is to visit the temples and talk personally with the high priests.</blockquote>In either case, you want to look to politicians for your inspiration.  When consolidating power among other political figures, he'll want to cut deals, posture, and undermine his fellows to whatever extent a politician of his alignment would be inclined to do so.If consolidating power among the churches, he is more likely to want to strike a populist stance and grandstand.Being Lawful Good, he will no doubt fully intend to keep any promise he makes, if at all possible, but don't discount even a lawful good character's ability to rationalize when faced with difficult decisions.[/QUOTE]I have already made a popular figure, especially since he killed one of the PCs who had turned into evil and tried to destroy the capital.
