So I know most of us either go to one extreme of the other, either we play a Pure character or we play a fully Corrupted one. But was wondering if any of you also maintain a character that totes the line and keeps them Tainted? And what reason do you do so whether in game or out of game?

My main Kitsune mage keeps himself Tainted due to his curiosity on how it can be used for his own ends. He knows individuals can function just fine corrupted and it's not necessarily a bad thing due to Aileh, but he also doesn't like how being fully corrupted changes his personality and quickly purged a lot of it to return to his normal state of mind. This let's me play a "pure" character while also touching on some of the corrupted content where other characters get corrupted by him, but not on purpose (in game anyways...). So I get my pure character but get to eat my corrupted cake too.

Any of the rest of you play a grey area character?

whats up I think the corruption mechanic should be removed. its been neglected since the game launched and i have no faith it will ever be integral. all it does is block content, if thats the intent then wow that is shit. i play fully corrupted because often i dont care about the sparse daioluge changes if the outcome is still the same. i dont care about headcanoning to make it feel deeper than it is either

Tainted, it's fun. Gives you more options, both in actions and roleplaying (no problems, in term of roleplay, with keeping around corrupted characters or demons, yay). To my understanding, most options opens on corruption 33, so keeping my characters at 33-35. Praise Cait and her purifying ass, kiss that booty xD
Although I understand why most seems to go with Pure. Considering Pure&Corruption is not Good&Evil. On one hand, going corrupted seems... "punishing"? in terms of content&rewards, on other you can do a lot of BS even as pure character (turning Ryn into buttslut who can only think of sex? Pure enough apparently).
