This is a traditional association<br />2. It keeps blue from having two elements.Pulp Herbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02486803457210325703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5179649506981851979.post-63636763699955108222009-10-05T22:14:42.897-05:002009-10-05T22:14:42.897-05:00It's a lot more "clear" if you'v...It's a lot more "clear" if you've played Magic the Gathering.<br /><br />White is very much law, civilization, bureaucracy, shinning knights. It's not life based as much as it's Lawful Good. Resurrection is white, Reincarnation is Green.<br /><br />Roman legion would be a white army. A horde of naked, blue haired Celts would be red (or maybe green). Zombie Lord's undead host is a black army. Blue army might be a school of mermen or in place of an army field a 20th lvl wizard.<br /><br />If we're going by Jeff Rients' LNC alignment then<br /> all 5 colours = Law<br /> not picking a side = Neutral<br /> Jale/Purple = Chaos<br /><br />Jale/Purple is Cthuhlu, the Cosmic Alien Intelligences, extra dimensional, it is outside and opposed to the system. At Ragnorok all colours will band together to maintain the status quo and oppose Jale. Jale will try very hard to unmake reality.<br /><br />>Blue and white really do seem lawful,<br /><br />If I had to pound them into a more traditional alignment:<br /> Red Green = Chaos (CE and CG)<br /> Blue = Neutral<br /> Black White = Law (LE and LG)<br /><br />But, it doesn't really fit well, which is one of the points.<br /><br />> but they're all arguable.<br /><br />Yep, that's a reason I like it!Norman J.

Green and white magic are both life-based. Green magic is wild life, so what is white magic? Civilized life. Cities, crops, government. <br /><br />Armies fall more within the bounds of red. <br /><br />But white magic is also about creation, so craft and industry are included. <br /><br />I don't know what your other names are, so I can't come up with something that fits the rest. But maybe this helps?<br /><br />Also: <br />Red and Green = Chaotic<br />Black and Purple = Neutral<br />Blue and White = Lawful<br /><br />What do you think? Blue and white really do seem lawful, but they're all arguable.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
