Gift of Devotion: Less alignment restrictions

We will file suggestions here that did not make the cut. Don't expect detailed responses, but the most common reasons are:

  • implementing the suggestion is impractical, or too much work for the gain
  • the suggestion is thematically against our design philosophy
  • the suggestion is too detailed/low-level
    Keep your suggestions broad and focused on RP benefits, please, not detailed suggestions of how to tweak X class.

Gift of Devotion: Less alignment restrictions

Post by Kaeldre » Sun Jan 19, 2025 11:29 pm

I suggest that the gift of devotion should not only lessen the racial restrictios of deities, but the alignment restrictions that are placed on divine casters as well. This would give us room to play with more unorthodox character concepts, in addition to becoming a useful gift for these classes as well.

Just to give an example, it may increase the allowed alignments for all deities by one step along the alignment axis.

To believe in an ideal is to be willing to betray it.

Denied.
Gift of Devotion makes you act like a Cleric of sorts without the related classes, and adjusts what dieties said classses can pick already by unlocking unusual ones.

Gods have their own preferences, a gift will not change what they will provide prayers and magics to.
