For the curious, my campaign – Storm Gate – deals with struggle between law and chaos. Law = tech, chaos = magic.

The power of each varies, depending on whether law or chaos are ascendant.

The paladin they met is lawful neutral with Oath of Science – allows tech items to work in his presence despite local influence of chaos.

The world is divided in two – the west dominated by the chaos-wracked War Lands, the east a land of orderly glass and steel.

@AardvarkBlue I worked it out as law = science because science gives definitive answers, or at least tries to. Magic changes.

@AardvarkBlue Similar here, tho I add one layer – magic is personal (what I learn might not match you), where science aims for universality
