	Chapter 1 of the book discusses the nature of good and gives advice on how to roleplay good aligned characters. It also lists archetypes of good characters and gives a sample of character of each of those archetypes. Rather hilariously, the sample redeemed villain character is a good [[Illithid]]		Chapter 1 of the book discusses the nature of good and gives advice on how to roleplay good aligned characters.

	Chapter 2 is about variant rules that can be used by good characters. One seriously imbalanced rule is Voluntary Poverty, which restricts the player from owning magic items or keeping any wealth they don't need in exchange for bonuses which aren't anywhere near enough to make up for it. Except that in a few hedge cases, such as [[~~monk~~]] and [[~~totemist~~]], where the bonuses ~~make the class wildly broken~~. The chapter also lists a few obscure gods of good: [[Ayailla]], [[Chaav]], [[Estanna]], [[Lastai]], [[Phieran]], [[Valarian]].		Chapter 2 is about variant rules that can be used by good characters.

Except that in a few hedge cases, such as [[Druid]] and [[Totemist]] (which can't normally use most items when shapeshifted and can't use magic items in the same slots as their Incarnum stuff respectively), where the bonuses stack when magic items shouldn't. The chapter also lists a few obscure gods of good: [[Ayailla]], [[Chaav]], [[Estanna]], [[Lastai]], [[Phieran]], [[Valarian]].

	Chapter 3 includes a variety of weapons for good characters to use. One hilarious thing it includes are Ravages and Afflictions, which are supposed to be less evil alternatives to using poisons, but some of the descriptions of what they do actually sound worse that just using poison, for example Raging Desire causes insatiable sexual desire while preventing any possible fulfillment of that desire.

	Chapter 6 contains magic spells and items. Introduced here is the concept of Sanctified Spells. These spells can be prepared by any ~~good aligned~~ prepared spellcaster (spontaneous spellcasters are, as typical for a 3.0 publication, screwed for no real reason) and have good effects in exchange for some kind of penalty when the spell expires. Most of the time this is just easily healed ability damage, though the highest level ones have special penalties. Since Sanctified spells can be used by any prepared caster of good alignment, they are often mentioned as an option for obscure, poorly supported, casting classes like [[Adept]], [[Healer]] or [[Wu Jen]]. Outside of this niche, the most notable is Luminous Armor and its Greater counterpart, which are basically just improved and highly visible versions of Mage Armor which are actually Abjuration spells (and thus eligible for use with the Abjurant Champion Prestige Class).

	Chapter 7 is about Celestial Paragons, extremely powerful good aligned outsiders that could be called [[Archangel]]s including the Celestial Hebdomad, 7 archons that each are each the protector of a different layer of [[Celestia]], Talisid and the Five Companions, an adventuring party made up of one of each kind of [[Guardinal]] except for Musteval, and the Court of Stars that rules over the [[Eladrin]].
