From a light bringer stand point. I am reading about the gargoyles and I'm wondering how a light bringer should perceive them. Their spells are not really evil but more druid like. How are others taking the gargs? Yes they have always been evil but WHY? Necro vs Pally is an easy question. How should the good look at the new gargs? |
In my opinion, races are all originally neutral. Its how the individual was raised and life events that should determine alignment. I also believe all magic is neutral and it is the direction of its use that determines its alignment in that moment.
Now if you want your character to think all gargoyles are evil as a race, absolutely in your right as the player. However, there is a big difference between what your character thinks/preaches and attempting to put an ooc blanket explanation onto the race. Don't worry about what others think... Think about how your character would react to them and roll with it.
I have seen some rpers play characters as races that most would consider evil and the character actually being overwhelmingly good. Humans aren't divided and categorized ooc as good or evil (except in the individual rp'd character's mind), neither are elves... why should any other race?

Technically Gargoyles are inclined towards neither good nor evil, only order. I can't see any lightbringer having an issue. There city in Ilsh is testiment to good gargoyles, especially those who practice sacrafice by freeing gargoyles enslaved.

So gargoyles have rights?!
I tell you right now, you let your kids go the the same school as gargoyles you are sending them down a demented spiral. You think they will be able to learn sitting beside a horned winged red monstrosity that used to be hunted for pickaxes and over night became awesome? Think again.
Only thing gargoyles are good for is archery practice. |

Has anyone in factions attempted the Morph Ear rings to see if they work with Gargoyle equipment on non-gargs.? Didn't work during beta wasn't certain if they changed it... (hopes*) |

I've had some discussion with Zarlox and Davaran on Sanctian gargoyle stance. We will RP neutral towards them, as if they were any other human or elf. Mysticism seems a lot like magery to Sanctus, and it will be treated in the same fashion.
Gargoyles will be judged on a case-by-case basis by their actions. We will welcome neutral to good gargoyle RPers into the ranks the same as anyone else.
63 days and counting. Can't wait to get home and starting RPing with you all again.
