The Gold Tide is the Tide linked to empathy, charity, compassion, and sacrifice. People attuned to this Tide wish to help others before all, even if its take a toll on them. They can be true or false saints, philantropists, or even crime lord who cares for their communities.

Notable characters[]

  • Rhin and Tybir (yes, Tybir) are both Gold-dominant.

Behind the scenes[]

When comparing the Tides and Planescape: Torment, Adam Heine associated the Gold Tide with Fhjull Forked-Tongue, since action matters more than intention for the Tides. While he is a demon and by definition aligned with evil, he is constrained to acts of charity due to a contract signed with a deva (a creature of goodness).
