Your inclination represents your social tendencies, with Lawful representing adherence to a strong social structure, Chaotic representing a strong self-reliance, and Moderate representing the balance of the two. Inclination will tend to rise over time (towards lawfulness), if a character takes no other (chaotic) actions. Inclination is a subset of alignment, and may sometimes be referenced as such. It is common to represent both inclination and alignment as a common descriptor, like Lawful Good or Moderate Evil.

Impacts of Inclination

Inclination does not affect experience gains, unlike Alignment. Killing mobs does not affect your inclination, regardless of the mob's inclination.

For some classes, inclination can play an important role. Good Paladins must be lawful, and will find that their spellcasting ability disappears with their lawfulness.

  • Necromancers and Oracles tend to moderate inclination, and have access to some moderate inclinated prayers.
