-[ Ethics ]
+#REDIRECT [[Character Ethos]]
-A person's ethics reflect their ideals about the way people should behave.
-They are related to alignment, but separate; they are described using the
-same terms as alignment.  Read the 'help [[alignment]]' file for those.
-People with balanced ethics receive more experience and thus
-advance faster.  However, it is more difficult to maintain this
-balance; the farther away your [[alignment]] is from your ethics, the less
-experience you receive.  Your ethical level is displayed in 'score', along
-with the divergence between your alignment and ethics.
-Your ethics do change, though much more slowly than your alignment.  If you
-maintain a given alignment level for long enough, your ethics will change
-toward it.  This is a gradual process, however.
-Players should roleplay their ethics extensively; it should be a defining
-part of your character's personality.  If you're wondering whether or not to
-do something, first decide what impact your ethics would have on the choice.
