an old article about no alignements


Dragon Magazine General Discussion


I remember an article (by monte cook perhaps) about not using spells like detect evil and such. It was replaced by other abilities. In short, it was an article about not using alignments. I can't find it.

Care to help ?

A couple of things by Monte concerning alignments. One is Here

Its a design diary for Arana Unearthed. It's a little specific to that game but he talks about why there are no alignments.

The other one is in the Book of Vile Darkness, where there is a variant rule on handling such spells as detect evil, holy smite, etc. He's basically asking who determines what is evil.

Hope this helps. I tried.


We're on the trail here. That's not what I thought, but it seems it's the preparatory work for his article in dragon magazine (if it's really him)


found it, in the n°323
