The game Dungeons and Dragons uses moral alignments as part of it's system. I tried to explain to other gamers how it is flawed. That while some game races can be perceived as evil or noble... These are not very accurate. Hostile to humans...doesn't make a character "evil". They are products of their cultures. I got a lot of blowback on this and disagreement. But I proved my point with my characters. I had a Paladin...he was an orc. Hated elves and dwarves...but still acted honorably despite his personal feelings.. And an elf ranger...(all rangers are good alignment and have a race-enemy)...His race enemy was humans...And a happy go lucky little hobbit "thief"...who was actually a very evil assassin/monk. It was fun to prove my point. Vindication is so sweet. Some of the group quit playing because they were so pissed . Sad.

@@darrinwebber4077 Whilst your case may stand true, there are some races that are just hard codded as evil, case in point the drow(how ever the fuck you spell it)/ dark elves, granted one of there most prominent members is a good aligned ranger, but even in the lore it is stated that he was cast out of dark elf society for his beliefs... Tho then again, the dark elfs do have a goddess that is actively trying to help them walk the path of light, and Lolth, the overlord goddess queen of the dark elves, HATES her and trys to snuff out the other goddess' worship as much as possible. Whilst on the other hand ya got orcs who also follow a hard coded chaotic evil got by the name of Gruumsh, who revels in war, death and destruction, and all of the orcs that follow him tend to be bandits, raiders or mercs, who only care about fighting and killing. But granted, there are outliers for EVERYTHING, such as your orc paladin that you mentioned. And what about me you might ask? Well! I am an unabashed player of a lawful evil undying yuan ti pureblood, warlock of Vecna who struck a bargain with the archlich him self,in exchange for his soul and service, he will get the knowledge of how to become a lich, that will if he gets strong enough, try and steal Vecnas power and become the serpent god of knowledge and secrets...

Todd is, was, and always will be a great actor !!! His whittyness and sarcasm make his role stupendous !!! He made the show so much better when he was around !!!!!!!

I didn't realize this character of Todd was Canadian actor, Christopher Heyerdahl, till I started watching the more recent show 'Sanctuary' in which he plays two different characters. His voice is unique, deep, sometimes gutteral - and at 6'3" tall, he's hard to miss as a character actor. Now I realize I've been seeing Heyerdahl on many shows over the years; very talented and worth watching.
