@matthewmercer what does alignment do for your players in @CriticalRole? @LauraBaileyVO turned back to CG, but what did that change?

Alignment has very little mechanical effect to the game. It was more important in older editions. However, it's a fun moral barometer! https://t.co/TyfygWbcrs

@charonsclaws03 I always thought alignment matter and experience points were being handed out. Just as a role-playing affect It helps in certain situations (against certain enemies, using certain items), but its more of a Roleplaying guide.

@matthewmercer Does alignment deviation affect Paladins in your game, though?

It can effect Clerics/Paladins & others that have patrons they grant their power. Act enough out of your/god's alignment, POOF! No power! https://t.co/oa3fR6d01r

@jasonshamblin @WTravisR @CriticalRole @LauraBaileyVO I find it more limiting than helpful. People don’t fit perfectly into 1 of 9 boxes. Yeah, it has varying results based on the game/players.

@LeSemblantON @CaptainTalon447As I recall, some Paladins can gain power through their convictions, rather than deities, though. no?

Certainly! Then those convictions drive the restrictions— Matthew Mercer (@matthewmercer) November 13, 2016
