Sovereigns with non-traditional alignment still have both Life and Death spellbooks in 1.09n

from Elemental Forums

As a simple fix, could you make it so that the only thing that matters is the alignment of the faction you are choosing, not the Sovereign's alignment.  This would also help when people want to mod alignment specific spells for more than just the current two types (Kingdom and Empire). ^_^

Best regards,
Steven.

Your fix would work well for me, if you flipped it. Sovereigns are the source of magic, even more so now that essence is a yes-no trait and not a spendable stat. It should be their choice of Life vs. Death magic that counts.

Re modding, it just seems like the system should be as open as possible without being a mess for coders &/or AIs. Life-vs-Death is a trait that might be 'binary' in the base game but shouldn't be all that hard to base on a list of 3+ names that refer to discrete sets of data/methods for the sovereign objects.
