Lord Foul II wrote:Another exception to the "always evil" thing undead created by a juju oracle are neutralThis is not true. Paizo's has stated that that ability is wrong, and any undead created by the juju oracle, no matter what the oracle's alignment, are evil.
Undead are animated by "evil" energies, period. Negative energy is inherently evil, is my understanding. Just as positive is "good".

The Juju Mystery which is the subject of much "debate" has possibly been replaced by the one found in the Player's Companion: Faiths and Philosophies, which does not grant any undead related abilities.
Note that the above linked Mystery was from the Serpent's Skull AP, 3 years ago. While F&P came out earlier this year.

didn't you already have an idea based on that atonement trait thing "absolute loyalty"
as the Adventure path previously mentioned shows the atonement spell is sufficiently strong to remove the evil of the intelligent undead (assuming they were not evil to begin with)
so that can still work

"Negative energy is inherently evil"
I'm not interested anymore. Not worth it.

inflict light wounds does not have the evil descriptor.
harm, no evil descriptor
the fell drain and fell animate metamagics do not give a spell the evil descriptor
Ah, interesting.
Didn't note that. But, what about clerics and their being forced to pick either cures or harm spells based on their evil/good?
Added: I suppose the act is determined as good or evil, not the inherent manipulation of magic. Interesting.

But if you choose negative energy you don't radiate evil, and if you choose positive, you don't radiate good.
Neither is inherently one or the other, or so i thought.

not if you have versatile chanel
either way, I was moreso saying that channeling negative energy was not an evil act (it's not a good act either)Damiani |

Clerics do radiate an aura, if not mistaken, based on their good, so there is that. Hmmm. Okay, makes sense more and more.

Tell that to your God....
Sorry pelor I killed a few people with energy that comes from the negative plane....
that's why I said neutral clerics of neutral gods
eg a cleric of nethus
edit: and besides how is that worse than casting flame strike?

What?
I'm still talking about a neutral person.Also-
It's no worse a way to die then getting stabbed.
Because a weapon was used to slay millions, does that make the weapon evil, or the person who used it evil?
Funny, because inflict wounds and harm are still one of the clerics better offensive spells, and even good clerics will use it.

there was reply, and I agree with Dami in not finding anything terribly off topic about this
in other news, I did post on Ice's page but it was mostly summation,

Is Kobold Cleaver telling us we are not allowed to have conversations that do not pertain to Avalon here in the discussion thread?
It's becoming lengthy, and likely a pain to read for those that aren't interested.
So moving it somewhere else is courtesy.Kobold Catgirl |
In my mind, a short talk about fetishes is one thing. At least it focuses on the Avalon players. Two pages about the evils of undead is about the Pathfinder RPG, though, so it doesn't really need to be here. I was asking if a new thread could be made, and one was, so I don't see any cause for a fuss.
Monkeygod |
I guess I just don't see what the big deal is. Whenever there's a something, be it in the game thread or here in the ooc thread, that doesn't interest me, I just skip over the posts.
Undead, souls, and magicks relating to both is something that I am really interested in. But for those who aren't, is it so hard to ignore it?

Please remind me who all was involved in collecting the bits of wreckage from the life pod, as well as who may have touched the stasis pod directly.
Carl, was the wreckage put in stasis of some kind or was it simply frozen? How long would it have been on your ship before being put in stasis/ frozen, or was it canned and frozen/put in stasis before being placed in your hold?
I realize I could simply go back through the posts, but I am hoping I can get the answers without doing that.
It was canned , stasis/ frozen on site then put on the Hammer shaft, Carl was suited

Icehawk, that's only in Golarion. Agartha (and homegames) can have different rules. ;D
Yeah.
But agaritha wouldn't work for a good undead pc, in my opinion, and I've only ever once had a home game that wasn't mine, and it was very by the book, and i only got to stay there for two sessions.I hate dming.
And lastly, if the rules say no, then i can't argue.
I have to do everything by the book, because I'm stupid like that.

I could create one.
All the undead I summon or create starts with my alignment.
I am LN.

Still, i don't feel an undead in this setting would work well.
The reason i don't think it would work is simple-
It's too easy for me.
I want to play the shunning, the unnatural powers in a normal environment, and the downsides of being an undead to actually matter.
I thought i had found a way, but as per complicated rules fluff, atonement doesn't work, so neither will absolute loyalty.
