Message: <blockquote data-quote="Gorgoroth" data-source="post: 6113153" data-attributes="member: 6674889">Agree with removing the simplistic alignment restrictions in a future splat book, but the core "cavalier/paladin" should be LG. I loved Oathsworn class in AU, or UA, or whatever Monte's game was called. In a future book, there could easily be non-alignment specific oaths, such as protect your king, this artifact, etc. But I don't think those options merit Core treatment, they are fringe options. What powers do you give such creatures? It would depend on Deity. They should, add perhaps as an option in the DMG to make your own Oaths and Oath power templates for suggestions on how to make options that would be similar in power and functionality to the default three, but why get ahead of ourselves? You can already do LG, LG or LN, or LE. It's hard to adhere to a strict code when you're chaotic, IMO. If chaotic means a champion of liberty, but I don't think deities of LG gods are so hard up for champions that they need to accept recruits from the village ruffians who grab wenches and spit on their superiors, who have no manners or etiquette or class. I know some people in real life who embody "chaotic" and I would not see them even wanting to swear allegiance to an oath or principle as a "thing", they're more carefree and fly by the seats of their pants kind of people. Great fun to be around, but not the steady, reliable type that you call when you are in trouble and need their help.</blockquote>
