Kronos's Balseraphs: No Dissonance for Malakim?

Rocket Man · 05-16-2011, 06:14 PM

I'm away from my books, but I believe the Infernal Players Guide covers this. As I recall, a "Balakite" gets to pick their own four oaths, which generally do not include the vow about not suffering an evil to live. Some do swear not to suffer an angel to live if it's their choice, of course. :D

That said, Malakite would be a tricky one, even for a Snake of Kronos. Balseraphs are used to everything being conditional; having to live up to their sworn word could be ... interesting.

That's what you posted in this tread a couple of years ago, yes...

Duh! Thanks, I missed that. It's odd Kronos would force them to do that, so it might imply they have to, in other words, every Malakite has to have at least four oaths...
