    @@richardhaegeler6858 yes and no, for example, are you evil if you say... Put half of the third Reich in traction to help people? You are violent yes, but in most cases not actively malicious. Its all very noble to say the only good path is one of no suffering. But its also unrealistic in either DnD or real life. If there is any conflict, one side wins and one side loses, especially if the conflict cannot be talked through, for example possession of a priceless relic, or even simple food stores during a lean winter. And no matter how many meals the paladin skips, he cant feed a city If your goal is helping people, and the powers that be seek to obstruct you, either through corruption or just cumbersome rules. Those who enforce this prove themselves not interested in helping others. In order to help people who need it, these other people must be dealt with. They don't have to suffer, or die, but they must be removed. For example, guards who bar castle gates against refugees fleeing ahead of an orcish army. Lawful good would give them directions, maybe toss supplies down. But would obey their orders or rules. A chaotic good would deck their commanding officer flat on his ass, and whoever else tried to stop him and open the gates. If they had decided to. Now, all choices carry consequences, if the gates are barred because there could be spies in the peasants, or the castle simply doesn't have food stocks to feed so many during a siege. Then you could cause more people to suffer. But then again maybe not, situations vary, the refugees could have what crops they could harvest from their farms before they were torched. However if the lawful good characters oath was to never abandon civilians in need, he would likewise be compelled to act, though he might instead forsake the castle and leave with the refugees and a small company of like-minded people. If escape was reasonable. As that only directly costs him. Alignment doesnt guarantee results, only where they would draw their lines and what actions they're more likely to take. An evil character can still save a country, even if only because they refuse to let someone conquer it before they do.

    @@TezcatsGhost I am ignoring your tangent about the actual value of these alignment charts because there was never a point in bringing that up. As for what actually matters, if you are doing it for the world or the broad many its good. if you are doing it for yourself it’s Evil. If you are doing it without even the slightest thought and without you or anyone else standing to benefit from it, *that’s* neutral. Neither Good nor Evil actually care how many people you hurt. Your hypothetical Lawful Good Paladin could kill hundreds without changing alignments because the number you kill doesn’t actually matter to it. That’s what you seem confused by.

  • @opinionofmine3238
    @opinionofmine3238 Жыл бұрын

    The way I approach the alignment chart is as follows: -Lawful: Follows a code / set of beliefs. This may be strict adherence to a law, but it often is simply a kind of lifestyle and self-discipline. -Chaotic: Acts in accordance to one's whims and in-the-moment impulses. While lawful considers a set of principles, chaotic judges each situation on a case by case basis with little or no regard for a more encompassing or consistent approach. -Neutral (between lawful and chaotic): Has principles, but very vague and/or easily shifted ones, and likely follow those principles because "it seems right" rather than any deeper or more thought-out reason. -Good/Evil - I took an approach somewhat inspired by MTG's color pie, and see the good and evil alignments as selfless vs selfish modes of thinking. Acts and motivations valuing the well-being of others, of society or the world in general are for the good alignment, whereas an approach that cares about one's personal goals first and foremost. One might ask "what about villains that are acting for the good of the world in their view, they are a dime a dozen these days", but motivation alone isn't the mode of thinking/mindset. I believe a villain that is doing what they are doing relunctantly, seeing every step as a sacrifice, trying to minimize the damage and such as a good aligned character, even as a villain. But if the villain is willing to trample on anyone and anything for the sake of their goal, and only cares for the pursuit of it, not in finding good means or even second-guessing themselves, then if that is the most benign goal ever, that is an evil character. As for where neutral falls on this, I would say self-centrism, character's with notions of live and let live or whose ambitions are too mundane and moment to moment to properly fit into the other categories.

    The main character I played shifted his alignment. I started him out as a Lawful Neutral soldier type. And overtime this shifted to a more Neutral Good Alignment that leans towards the Lawful bit. It looks like he is going to round out to Lawful Good in a bit though once his character arc lines up. Or he might stay Neutral. You never know, D&D is fun like that.

    One of my favorite examples of alignment was actually a double act. My best friend and I worked together on characters that would oppose each other on a narrative level. I was playing a Lawful Good Fighter and he was playing a Lawful Evil Rogue. In the strictest sense, we had the same endgoal. We were working for a Princess (well I was; he was her brother) and while both characters wanted to make things better, my character would be the one going out of his way to do the upstanding thing and he was willing to do more morally questionable acts that needed to be done so any negative blowback would land on him and not his sister. It was a very fun campaign.

    That’s one way to think of it, but I’d honestly consider that more a “pragmatic lawful neutral” than “lawful evil”, and there are many other lawful evil archetypes that never have to stray from their code of “honor” to be evil. 1. Their code itself could be inherently evil, such with the follower of a totalitarian regime carrying out government-sanctioned atrocities or someone following a devilish contract with a minimum baby sacrifice clause. In otherwords Lawful Evil because their Law IS Evil. 2. The honor code might not be evil in and of itself, but may involve obedience to someone who IS evil, like an honorable knight sworn to the service of an Evil Queen who won’t break that oath even though they know her orders are wrong. IE they want to be LG or LN, but are Lawful Evil because they put the Law OVER Good in their personal priorities list, so the good gets cast aside whenever there’s a conflict between the two. 3. As Skell said, the code might be fine, but the character is evil, and intends to exploit the code and its loopholes as a tool to get what they want, like a corrupt lawyer-generally these follow the Code either through compulsion (geas or other cosmically enforced contract) or as a political tactic reason to avoid punishment, but would be NE or CE if they thought they could get away with it. IE they are LE because their Evil TWISTS Law. Or (4) Usually only seen with the more “mastermind” BBEGs or Javert-style idealistic villainous cops, they are so obsessed with maintaining order that they believe no injustice is too great to use to enforce that code for the “Greater Good”. The kind of folks who legitimately believe petty theft deserves the death penalty and noise complaints deserve public floggings because “good people wouldn’t do those things”. IE they are LE because in their mind Law REPLACES Good.

    Had a character with two alignments (Cleared it with the DM). When not raging, he wants to help people, yet also doing so to help himself, such as accepting the deed to Trollskull Manor to clear it out of anything nefarious before handing the deed back, since Volo can't handle his Dragonfire Liqour. However, when he's actively raging, he sees the problem, and goes through everything he can to eliminate said problem like an anti-hero vigilante. He does this to prevent further danger and property damage, despite how he might be the one breaking a chair, table, floor, chandelier, or even a full on wall, while Raging. My DM agreed with me that outside of Rage, he's LG, yet inside Rage, he's CG.

    My favourite DnD experience was playing as a Lawful Good Dragonborn Paladin. The stereotype would have had me as an uptight, goody goody who ruined everyone's fun. It quickly turned into the paladin being an Eternal Exasperated Team Dad as the druid was chaotic good and eternally hyped about being in a big city, the Bard was a chaotic good paranoid conspiracy theorist and fourth player's character never lasted more then a single session. Constantly keeping those crackpots from wandering off or doing something stupid eventually lead to moment of sanity slippage where he tore down a gate with the intent of taking it home for use as raw materials by his blacksmith dad.

    I once played a Tempest Cleric named Arden. He was a LG himbo trying to make up a sordid past as a pirate. My DM was throwing a lot of demons and undead our way in that campaign (some obviously evil, others more morally grey) but this led Arden to constantly be on edge. Between that and the fact he was always lowkey desperate to earn some measure of redemption, he made some very rash decisions that pissed off some very powerful NPCs and started a few fights. It was a blast. He probably solved more problems than he started, but man is it fun to play a character that will throw themselves face first into trouble!

But the evil came out in what he'd do about crimes he did catch. And currently I'm playing a Chaotic Neutral Rogue. He's very loyal to the rest of the party, but has a very ah... Well, loose understanding of rules like "don't steal things". On the bright side, he gives everything he steals to the party.

    IRL I lean towards Lawful Neutral. When I write my fiction stories (not related to DnD), most of my main characters are Neutral Good, but usually end up being thrown into circumstances where they are forced to make a choice outside of their alignment, for one reason or another. Most of my villains are Lawful Evil, but some of my favorite ones I’ve written were good Neutral Evil. One of my favorite main characters went through an arc where she started True Neutral, shifted slowly towards Chaotic Good, and then because of certain plot developments shifted to Lawful Evil, before ending the story at Chaotic Neutral. Fun times.

My fighter survived alongside the others, but the entire pop of a village got recalculated from roughly 58-64 to 0, in an instant. Turns out commoners are allergic to meteors, who'd foreseen that!? In any case, by the time I made it to the point my character died (plot and other things allowed him to return a vampire, thanks to a vampire royal party member... who offered my character to get back to life - I had one life-line each day during combat encounters... BUT NOT outside of them - I just said nope, and that's where my fighter ended) - by then personal stuff came up and time management got the better of me. but all in all, I guess Lawful neutral.

    The Pathfinder CRPGs actually do Alignment very well. The Alignment is not the start and end of a character. It's a quick overview of how they make decisions and what they aspire to. There is a companion in Kingmaker that is Chaotic Evil Half Orc Magus. He is an angry ex-slave that does not give a fuck about anyone else (with one exception). The character is still capable of doing good. Of loving. Of getting over their own shit. Of listening to stop running after the evil Mage that enslaved him and to release the slaves that are about to burn to death. Yes in the moment his outlook makes him go: "Fuck them, I am killing that guy." But when confronted about it he can see how assholish his behaviour is and maybe even move his alignment a bit. Using Alignment as the end all of your character makes them static and flat.

    Chaotic good is my go to in regards to alignment, I just like to play good (as in morality) characters, but then again I don`t like being a goodie two shoes, and sometimes the sistem is wrong and you need to break it just a little bit, the CG is perfect for that (at least in my opinion). BUT AS IS IMPORTANT TO CLARIFY TO EACH THEIR OWN and if you want it the other way around good for you as long as you have fun and are not a obstacle in the rest of the party fun.

    Personally, I rarely even think about alignment anymore and if I do, its usually an after thought that I fill in once I've finished making the character. I am rather fond of chaotic good because telling the law to shove it while tricking it into taking down a corrupt noble causing trouble for the town I live in is a lot of fun.

    Neutral is the best, be it paired with any of the other alignments or stand alone. Lawful neutral mans you choose your code of honor. Chaotic neutral is the passive-aggressive way to say, "I do what I want." Neutral good are that casual kind of good you can believe. Neutral evil is smarter than chaotic, and more sadistic than lawful. True Neutral is the hardest alignment to play. Please comment if you agree or disagree on any of these.

    I always saw Lawful Good and Chaotic Good in view of the Spock vs McCoy philosophy. Lawful Good is like Spock. The laws are for a balanced and ordered society, and one my do good in a way that emphasizes that (the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few). Chaotic Good is more McCoy. One should pursue good in a means that helps people on a more personal level, even in expense of those who would uphold society over the individual (the needs of the few outweigh the needs of the many). Some would say Kirk is Neutral Good, which is fair, but his colleagues on the show would debate whether Shatner was that.

    Admittedly, I am perhaps most attuned to the Lawful Good alignment that many in D&D would hate, simply because...well the start of the Chaotic branch part sums it up. One too many players that just want to be 'lol so random' jackasses that irritate me to no end and...well, LG happened.

    Neutral good, or chaotic neutral. At the table I’m at we have a table rule that we don’t play evil aligned PC’s (which I wish we could every once in a while, it CAN work) Neutral good because I’m someone who wants to help, doesn’t want to take away the choice of an NPC unless I have to, and is otherwise ambivalent. Chaotic neutral because I want character complexity (and I’m a push the big red button type of guy) and am tired of having to explain character motivation for alignment and how doing one deliberate evil act shifts my alignment down a notch.

    Oh I don't do alignment. I come up with my character, and then decide, after everything else, what alignment best describes them, not the other way around. My most recent character was a street urchin taken in by a power wizard, learned the art, and now that he's a free adventurer he shows sarcastic disregard for social norms, tries to be pedantic and often makes unilateral decisions for the group because he HAS to be the smartest one in the group in order to prove to others (and thereby himself) that he is no longer that powerless orphan anymore.
