Putting Magic Flavor on the Table; Green Devotion

About a month ago, I published an alternate alignment option I called Color Devotion . The intent behind this option was to provide an option that would allow PCs and NPCs that occupy a spectrum of possible allegiances and philosophies between good and evil. As some sort of reflection of player complexity, characters might possess any combination of one or more color devotions. The next devotion I will explore is Green Devotion. Green Devotion is characterized by a particular connection to nature and creatures in particular. While often longing for acceptance into a tribe, the loyalty of Green Devotion fiercely defends its comrades.

Putting Magic Flavor on the Table; White Devotion

In January, this year, I published an alternate alignment option I called Color Devotion . The intent behind this option was to provide an option that would allow PCs and NPCs that occupy a spectrum of possible allegiances and philosophies between good and evil. As some sort of reflection of player complexity, characters might possess any combination of one or more color devotions. The next devotion I will explore is White Devotion. White Devotion is characterized by its pull to conform to a greater good and their absolute confidence in their altruistic motivesFor further exploration of White as a character philosophy, I can heartily endorse the Dice Try YouTube Channel and Mark Rosewater's essay " The Great White Way " both of which I leaned heavily into trying to figure out how this would look in my game. White Devotion White White Devotion represents the pull of belonging and the desire for fairness Allied Devotions Blue and Green Rival Devotions Black and Red Wh...
