[QUOTE="FormerlyHemlock, post: 7670848, member: 6787650"] No, why would they reject it? Maybe that spell is useful for detecting chumps and self-righteous bigots (from their perspective). Or maybe they use it to detect people who aren't worth your time trying to co-op because it won't work. Depends on your setting and how you run their goals/self-image/motivation. Imagine an ISIS jihadist with a spell that detects faithful Coptic Christians, ones who really live their beliefs. Having an reliable way to Detect Good (Coptic) doesn't necessitate believing that Christians are actually RIGHT about anything. Neither does a Succubus's ability to Detect Chumps (Good) imply any particular value judgment on her part about the correctness of whatever attunement her spell detects. Are you arguing that the Succubus must of necessity share the axiological values of whatever force/entity is responsible for assigning Know Alignment results? If so, why do you think that? Do you think it's so self-evident that other people must think it too? [/QUOTE]
