Color Poll

May 6, 2019 5:23 am
Starts here. Each of you will rank your top three choices for the shared Guild color. Using the Instant Run-Off system, what this means is after the votes are in, I will make a tally. If no color has a majority of #1 votes (3 votes in this case), the color with the lowest number of #1 votes gets eliminated, and anyone who chose that color will have their #2 vote count as their #1 vote and so on. I believe this system will work best, however, please realize your least favorite choice could be the one chosen by majority. If this isn't OK with you, I am sorry, no hard feelings, see you around the forums.

I will be using the theme of the color chosen to guide the campaign. The way I see the colors are as follows:
White: Peace, law, structured, selflessness, equality
Blue: Knowledge, deceit, cautious, deliberate, perfecting
Black: Power, self-interest, death, sacrifice, uninhibited
Red: Freedom, emotion, active, impulsive, destructive
Green: Nature, wildlife, connected, spiritual, tradition

If you end up all choosing to be part of the same guild, then that will influence things as well.

Yes, that does mean if Black is chosen, you can play an evil alignment, HOWEVER!!!! you will be expected to work for your guild's interests and your guild's interests in this game include maintaining the Guildpact. They might try to weasel their way into a bigger slice of the pie for the guild, but they intend to let everyone have a piece because it serves their best interest in the end. But, because Black will be an option for your secondary color no matter what, Evil alignments are allowed only if Black is a part of your guild pairing.

OK...well that was simple. White has the majority. So that will be the shared color. So the list of possible guilds for PCs are:

Azorius Senate, the police force, legislative and judicial body of Ravnican bureaucracy.
Boros Legion, a standing army that protects the Guildpact and contains the League of Wojek, the official peacekeepers of the City of Ravnica.
Orshov Syndicate, originally the most widespread religion of Ravnica. Now it regulates trade and banking, among other activities.
Selesnya Conclave, promotes what is now the strongest, nature-based religion of Ravnica and its ledev guards patrol the rural areas along with being conservationists and charity workers.

I've put up a post about races. Some D&D races aren't represented in the Magic: the Gathering card sets, so I talked about how you might incorporate them if you really want to play one of them. I'll open up a new thread for character creation discussion.
