From the hex stocking I've been doing using this system the colour based relationship/reaction stuff does lead to a bit more co-operation between entities - so thats one way of off setting the inherent force/violence. Explicitly including social challenges/tricks as a random stocking option, with its own way of using the cards for that would also help!

And this is a particularly robust little system!<br /><br />I will say that one that I've noticed from using magic cards this way myself is that it tends to weight my associations heavily towards force and violence, and away from things like social challenges or clever tricks. I try to correct for it when I'm stocking a dungeon or something, but I'd be curious if that's more of a struggle in active play.
