Title: Alignment tokens
Post by: Zaratustra on February 13, 2008, 02:01:00 pm

replace [GOOD], [EVIL], [BENIGN] and [SAVAGE] with generic ALIGNMENT tokens.

ALIGNMENT tokens would be described in a manner roughly as follows:

code:

---

 
[ALIGNMENT:EVIL]
  [OPPOSES:GOOD]
  [UNDEAD] add other modifiers such as giant and dire animals here
  [PERSONALITY:SYMPATHY:-20] relative personality modifier of dwellers
  [PERSONALITY:COOPERATION:-20]
  [PERSONALITY:ALTRUISM:-20]
  [PERSONALITY:TRUST:-10]
  [SPHERE:THRALLDOM]
  [SPHERE:BLIGHT] spheres commonly associated with the concept

---

Then you could have USE_ALIGNED_WOOD instead of USE_GOOD_WOOD, USE_EVIL_WOOD, etc.

Ooh, I'm thinking of Ocean alignment creating mer-creatures and mer-dwarves the way Evil creates Undead. Or Fire alignment creating... well, you know.

This would really go good with philosophy...

[ALIGNMENT:EPICUREAN]
 [OPPOSES:STOICISM]
 [PERSONALITY:MODERATION:+10]
 [SPHERE:FREEDOM]

Or something like that anyways...
This thread would be good with that philosophers one...
