Societies Sourcebook
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Societies Sourcebook is a 1991 role-playing supplement for Legendary Lives published by Marquee Press.
Societies Sourcebook is a supplement in which detailed descriptions of religions, societies, and associations are provided for characters. The bulk of the book covers religions for all 26 races and societies for all 31 character types in the game. Each race has multiple gods or beliefs, with some having up to six deities. Religious beliefs are accompanied by notes on the character's standing based on their Devotion level, with titles and benefits outlined for each level. For example, a Devotion of 1 makes a character a Worshipper, while higher levels like Devotee (Devotion of 10-15) offer benefits such as +1 Legends. The book also details societies for each character type, providing options like the Necromancers' Children of the Red Skull. Additional sections cover the polities of the Seelie and Unseelie courts, magical artifacts, clothing, Foe Societies, and suggestions for using the book with other FRPGs.[1]
