The template for every character from the Nile Empire or the Terran cosm has a listed '1nclinati.on," good or evil. Ord characters with an Inclina-tion of good will never perform an evil act, while those with an Inclination of evil will never perform a good act without strong ulterior motives. Remember to consider the self interest versus community interest question when deciding whether an act is good or evil. A crusading avenger who beats up, or even murders, mobsters as part of an effort to stamp out crime in the big city is still classified as a good character according to the Terran axi-oms since he is acting on the common interests of all (a city free of crime). Possibility-rated characters may perform actions that go against their Inclination, but each time they do so, it costs them a Pos.9bility. Anytime the gamemaster feels that a possibility-rated character has been performing more actions that are against his or her Inclination than actions that are in accordance with the Inclination, the gamemas.ter can declare that the char-acter has switched Inclinations. A character who switches Inclinations automatically forfeits all of the Possi-biliti.es thatheor she has accumulated. The onlywaythat such a character can return to his or her original Inclination is to begin performing actions in ac-cordance with that Inclination until the gamemaster again declares a switch (and yes, the character must again forfeit any Possibilities earned since the.first switch). A player charac-ter that switches Inclinations to evil and does not begin an immediate ef-fort to switch back is out of play and becomes a gamemaster character. Note that a character's Inclination only restricts his or her actions while he or she is subject to the Terran/ Empire axioms. Once he leaves the Terran cosm or the Nile realm, he ignores the Inclination rules and be-gins to function normally. Characters surrounded by "reality bubbles" composed of non-Terran/Empire a.x-iomsetsalso ignore Inclination, though natives of the Empire who surround themselves with reality fields in re-gions outside of the Empire once again become subject to their Inclination because they are again subject to the Empire axioms.
