Seven Convictions, Seven Sins, Seven Skymetals

[Anorak]

OK, can someone confirm if I have this mapped out correctly:

1. Charity/Greed/Transmutation/Adamantine

2. Generosity/Envy/Abjuration/Noqual

3. Humility/Pride/Illusion/Horacalcum

4. Kindness/Wrath/Evocation/Siccatite

5. Love/Lust/Enchantment/Djezet

6. Temperance/Gluttony/Necromancy/Inubrix

7. Zeal/Sloth/Conjuration/Abysium

Mostly! I bolded and italicized the corrections.

Also, there is an article in Pathfinder #61 that talks about this. It goes over the seven shards and then has a spread of the seven sky metals and their associations and mechanics.

Thanks Adam! I somehow missed that part of the write up for the Shards!

Of course, when the Runelords were first introduced back in RotRL, the breakdown was

Wealth/Greed
Eager Striving/Envy
Honest Pride/Pride
Righteous Fury/Wrath
Fertility/Lust
Abundance/Gluttony
Rest/Sloth

Obviously, that list needed some cleaning up, but I like it a bit better conceptually than the new version, since none of the sins are directly opposed to the virtues, but rather are the virtues taken to its most twisted extreme.

Hmm...to try to clean that up a bit myself...

Prosperity/Greed
Drive/Envy
Honor/Pride
Justice/Wrath
Love/Lust
Plenty/Gluttony
Comfort/Sloth

I've enjoyed playing with the comparison with the "old" virtue/sin list and the "new" one, explaining it as translation issues and information lost to history.

And I like your third list, too, Revan. I may have to use that. One of my players' clerics is certainly fond of justice as polite wrath. :P
