Disposition

A creature's Disposition describes its intent towards you. Any character you interact with or animal you encounter along your adventures operates under one of these seven Dispositions. With a successful skill check or clever role-playing, you can improve another creature's Disposition. With a Critical Failure or detrimental behavior, you can worsen it. Aside from eventful in-game choices, several different skills can be used to alter Disposition (see the Animal Control, Negotiate, Perform, and Seduce entries in Chapter 6: Skills). The list below explains each level of Disposition starting from most positive to most negative.

Enamored

An enamored creature exists to bring you happiness. It would probably sacrifice itself if it could bring you an ounce of safety.

Friendly

A friendly creature will go out of its way to give you aid. Sometimes, it will help you at dire consequences to itself.

Benign

A benign creature is amicable and pleasant to you, and will lend aid, but won't help in any way that overly inconveniences it.

Neutral

A neutral creature has no disposition towards you; it doesn't wish you harm, nor does it wish to help you.

Malign

A malign creature generally wishes you ill will, but won't attack you without provocation.

Hostile

A hostile creature will go out of its way to harm you. In fact, it will most likely disregard its own safety to bring you pain.

Hateful

A hateful creature has one purpose in life: to end yours. It is almost a certainty that it will put its own life in danger to kill you.
