Alignment
Alignment of good and evil deal with a person's sense of justice, morailityl, virtue and vices. Alignments are seperated between Lawful, Neutral, or Chaotic.
★Lawful-Good
A lawful good person typically acts with compassion and always with honor and a sense of duty. Examples of people with lawful good traits are righteous paladins and chivalrous knights.
✦Lawful-Neutral
A lawful neutral person typically believes strongly in lawful concepts such as honor, order, rules, and tradition, and often follows a personal code. Examples of lawful neutral people include a soldier who always follows orders, a judge or enforcer that adheres mercilessly to the word of the law, and a disciplined monk.
❈Lawful-Evil
A lawful evil person sees a well-ordered system as being easier to exploit and shows a combination of desirable and undesirable traits. Examples of this alignment include tyrants, devils, and undiscriminating mercenary types who have a strict code of conduct
✯Neutral-Good
A neutral good person typically acts altruistically, without regard for or against lawful precepts such as rules or tradition. A neutral good person has no problems with cooperating with lawful officials, but does not feel beholden to them. In the event that doing the right thing requires the bending or breaking of rules, they do not suffer the same inner conflict that a lawful good character would.
⊗Neutral
A neutral person is neutral on both axes and tends not to feel strongly towards any alignment, or actively seeks their balance. Most animals, lacking the capacity for moral judgment, are of this alignment, since they are guided by instinct rather than conscious decision.
❅Neutral-Evil
A neutral evil person is typically selfish and has no qualms about turning on its allies-of-the-moment, and usually makes allies primarily to further their own goals. A neutral evil person has no compunctions about harming others to get what they want, but neither will they go out of their way to cause carnage or mayhem when they see no direct benefit for themselves. Another valid interpretation of neutral evil holds up evil as an ideal, doing evil for evil's sake and trying to spread its influence.
Examples of neutral evil people would be an assassin who has little regard for formal laws but does not needlessly kill, a henchman who plots behind their superior's back, or a mercenary who switches sides if made a better offer. Another example would be a masked killer who strikes only for the sake of causing fear and distrust in the community.
✮Chaotic-Good
A chaotic good perosn does what is necessary to bring about change for the better, disdains bureaucratic organizations that get in the way of social improvement, and places a high value on personal freedom, not only for oneself, but for others as well. Chaotic good people usually intend to do the right thing, but their methods are generally disorganized and often out of sync with the rest of society.
۞Chaotic-Neutral
A chaotic neutral person is an individualist who follows their own heart and generally shirks rules and traditions. Although chaotic neutral characters promote the ideals of freedom, it is their own freedom that comes first; good and evil come second to their need to be free
❇Chaotic-Evil
A chaotic evil person tends to have no respect for rules, other people's lives, or anything but their own desires, which are typically selfish and cruel. They set a high value on personal freedom, but do not have much regard for the lives or freedom of other people. Chaotic evil people do not work well in groups because they resent being given orders and do not usually behave themselves unless there is no alternative.
