#1 WOOT! Champions of Valor excerpt up on the WotC site!

Post by Rogue 9 »

Though I have a sneaking suspicion that they're going to try and sneak in more "divine magic without gods" bullshit, Sean Reynolds personally assured me that he would have none of it. However, his pre-production copy doesn't seem accurate to the final version...

Well, I'm for the 'divine magic without gods' thing, in general, though I think it should be one hell of a hard character option to play, requiring a consistant devotion to some cause with a religious fervour.

Kinda like a leader cult, or communism. :lol:

Well, I'm fine with it in other settings, but if I wanted to play a concept-devoted cleric without a god, I'd catch the next portal to Greyhawk. :wink: If Ed Greenwood wants to change his setting that's fine, but I don't care for two-bit authors ignoring the rules of the setting just because the editors don't play and aren't likely to catch it and sneaking in stuff in violation of that rule without actually officially changing it.
