A quicky concerning Galatan religion (Design Domingo #13)

Honor is the sum of the traits that a culture finds admirable, necessary, and important. Virtues are not fixed, but vary according to the beliefs of the people. Future expansions of the Middens and Morals ruleset will examine what happens when different culture with different sets of Virtues meet and interact. In general, whatever behavior (i.e., trait) is the opposite of a virtue is perceived as a vice. The relative virtues and vices of the faiths common to player characters in Middens and Morals are as follows.  {Some of the names are place-holders; please forgive me if I change them later}

Virtues of the Orthodox Orippan Church (OOC): Chaste, Forgiving, Merciful, Modest, Temperate.
Virtues of the Penguernite Interpretation of the OOC: Chaste, Energetic, Generous, Modest, Temperate.
Virtues of the Cults of the Firstborn: Generous, Energetic, Honest, Lustful, Proud.
Virtues of the Phaetian Heresy: Chaste, Honest, Just, Merciful, Temperate
Virtues of the Galatic Imperial Cult: Chaste, Generous, Just, Merciful, Modest
Virtues of the Difficult Gods: Vengeful, Selfish, Deceitful, Cruel, Suspicious
Virtues of the Archmage Remembrance: Generous, Proud, Worldly, Indulgent, Reckless
Virtues of Pyronism: Chaste, Energetic, Just, Prudent, Temperate
Virtues of the Fairy Faith: Vengeful, Honest, Proud, Arbitrary, Worldly
Virtues of the Religion of the Two Kingdoms*: Chaste, Vengeful, Just, Mystical, Temperate
Virtues of the Elfin Pantheon: Valorous, Proud, Lazy, Prudent, Just
Virtues of the Hrumdail Orcs*: Valorous, Generous, Energetic, Vengeful, Reckless
Virtues of the Locorruil Orcs*: Deceitful, Proud, Energetic, Prudent, Suspicious

* These three sets are approximations in Galatic Virtues of those valued by these three cultures. The Two Kingdoms are a distant, foreign country with a completely different culture, whereas orcs of both religions have based their ways on rebellion and uniqueness. The first expansion of Middens and Morals into different societal systems will be focused on the orcs, and the second on the Two Kingdoms.
