# Uft War Sentiments

To simplify, there are 6 rough sentiments that most people fall into regarding the war. It may behoove you Players to come up with names for them to help communicate (as I have for my internal use).

- Want to see **Uft as the most powerful** nation it can be, and if the war allows that, that's wonderful. But if the war risks Uft's end, then the war should be avoided.
- Want to be in possession of **exotic or luxury goods**. If the war brings about more of this, they are in favor, but if the war brings about scarcity of these things, they are opposed to it.
- Want to seize opportunities to grow in wealth/status/power through **external-to-Uft** opportunities (often via trade), and if the war brings about such opportunities, they are in favor, but if it stops those opportunities, they are against.
- Wants to grow in wealth/status/power **within Uft** (especially Uft's government) and if the war brings about such opportunities, they are in favor, but if it stops those opportunities, they are opposed.
- Wants to see **Elven culture** and values spread to the rest of the world, with the firm belief that the world will be a better place as a result. In favor of the war if it is spreading Elven values, against if it is suppressing them.
- Wants the Elves to go back to **their roots in the forest** and are in favor of the war if forests are likely to be reclaimed, but against it otherwise.

These will act like Desires in Social Encounters, rules-wise, though npcs will likely have a more specific explicit Desire in addition to this broader one.
