Talk:Virtues

Does anyone remember there actually being symbols for the Guardian's virtues in UW2? From what I can gather, these were only invented by Houston Dragon. If that's the case, they should not appear in the table or should be noted as being non-canon.Shadow of Light 08:22, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

I actually found the descriptions in the dialogue of the game in Killorn Keep. --Tribun 14:19, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

Man, considering I have a transcript of most of the game, I should have thought of looking. XD Shadow of Light 08:37, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

Well, at least I think so. It's already a while ago, my memory could fool me. --Tribun 17:34, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

Virtues were defined different[edit]

I remember them explaining the virtues differently in the Ultima games. Was the wording different in different games? Listing what it says now, followed by what I remember.

  • Justice is Truth, tempered by Love
    • Justice is the love of truth
  • Sacrifice is Courage to give oneself in name of Love
    • Sacrifice is the courage to love

Separate articles?[edit]

Would it be worth it making separate articles for virtues other than the eight "main" ones? For instance, articles describing Control, Passion and Diligence? --FreddeAberg 08:59, May 13, 2010 (UTC)

Yes, I think so too. There are too many separate things mixed in here, it has grown too much. They would be better linked with a category or index, pointing to separate articles.--Sega381 01:22, May 16, 2010 (UTC)
I have started separating this article, mainly by moving the biggest pieces to other articles. Still not sure if each system should be in a separate article, but I think it will probably come to that.--Sega381 14:00, July 7, 2010 (UTC)

The Guardian and criminology[edit]

As fascinating as "Amusingly, a real life Correctional Facility called Guardians of the Threshold have adapted the Guardian's virtues for their own use. It is unknown if the authorities at this facility understand the Guardian of Britannia was an evil megalomaniac." is, the link is dead and Googling for things like "Guardians of the Threshold florida correctional" turns up nothing for me.
