Good prevails

Culture concept

For some inexplicable reason, being on the side of good, justice, love or some other generally positive thing somehow grants you power to defeat those that oppose it. Or at least so the wielder of that power would have you believe.

Alternate name: Justice prevails

This may not have any actual impact on the gameplay, but rather simply tries to convey the message of good/justice always winning simply because they're good/justice. Often this is combined with some bumbling fool defeating some evil overlord who has had the training and dedication to become the worst bad ass there is.

Most prevalent in children's shows/games of some super heroes (e.g. Power Rangers and similar), commonly done for comic effect in things for more adult people. For example, see Minsc from Baldur's Gate.

NOT for simply that the evil is defeated, but the reason for it is stated to be that it was because those who defeated it/him/whatever were on the side of good/justice.
