Self-Righteousness

From Gothpoodle

Greater Gaffling, Conceptual Spirit, Emotional Choir

Description

It appears as some sort of intellectual, either dressed all in black with a goatee or older, bearded, in tweed and glasses. In any form, it radiates a sense of smug authority.

Storytelling Hints

It is, of course, always condescending and ridicules anything said that is not in agreement with its own views.

Background

Born of the negative side of idealism, this spirit represents belief spurred by pride and intellectual vanity. It has lurked among the counterculture movements in the city and has close ties to their spirit (see above). It is tied to the Phoenix Court, but only tangentially, caring little for the bigger picture. Its interests are more abstract.
