Message: <blockquote data-quote="Imaro" data-source="post: 6120735" data-attributes="member: 48965">I didn't state this. You're assuming because I said LG is LG that it in turn means different gods and belief systems are irrelevant... which is something I never actually said. Those deities and belief systems can be different aspects of the overall cosmological force that is LG... nothing stops a paladin from focusing on one aspect of LG over others, in doing so he still remains LG... just as a warrior who specializes in a particular weapon is still a warrior. As an example from literature... in Michael Moorcock's Elric stories, chaos is a tangible and cosmological force... that doesn't preclude his Lords of Chaos from existing and doesn't make them "not matter". They embody particualar aspects of chaos and readily promote that aspect(s) over others they do not embody.  In choosing to follow or worship a specific one, a servant is declaring his or her focus on the particular aspect that their chosen Chaos Lord embodies... yet they are still followers of chaos. I don't even understand this... the ENTIRE thread is about preferences and thus is about each individuals wants... Even Balesir admits it's a debate entirely about individual preferences... or are you trying to claim you are arguing from some superior position not concerned with what you want personally at your table?You missed my point entirely... the "logic" or "reason" you are claiming exists can be easily discarded by the DM if he reall wants to take away the agency of all or any one player...</blockquote>
