Occult illustrations give your game a gothic atmosphere, but not necessarily make the game occult or gothic, though witch hunters do. Mutations, dating back to GW give your cults a Lovecraftian feel of the mutagenic ooze. On the other hand, you are sacrificing depth for playability. Nobody who is of any greatness sets out to be a villain, all of the evil is done with the greatest intentions and all of mean-ness is carried out dressed as revenge. There is evil to be sure, but to put a chaotic or Lawful Evil label on it only disenchants your game and takes away depth. Nothing is black and white, the reality is an explosion of white light slightly out of focus, that can be best made sense of in terms of shades of gray. By calling your supplement Cults of Chaos, you are reducing the subject of you supplement to a bunch of cookie cutter stereotypes, reducing in stature those who join those cults. That makes you setting weaker, and in the real world, reducing your enemy to any stereotype makes you underestimate them.<br />Brooser Bearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08487438364129415650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2600947515654238699.post-88959446363548908042015-11-05T11:10:44.874-03:002015-11-05T11:10:44.874-03:00I hope you will put some Frog men, even if they ar...I hope you will put some Frog men, even if they are not really a mutations result ... but a species. They have a Chaos cult that can be followed by weak humans. <br />Pierre from Froglandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14860202828506978725noreply@blogger.com
