NE is obviously the most romantic sounding of all the alignment languages.

I would go with LE. Or maybe CE.

Le cœur veut ce que l'ouï veut.

Those alignment tongues are totes romance languages!

I usually keep it house rules are more along the lines of no disruptive players.

LE Tony Soprano type character is better than your CN griefer stereotype.

In my experience annoying players, such as griefers, has nothing to do with the alignment of the PC and everything to do with the player.

I would go even further and have Alignment Ability Scores.

The town guard tells you to stay out of trouble. Make a Lawful ability check. Oh, you failed? Insta-Kender! You try to pry the captain's halberd from his hands as he speaks to you. You are thrown in jail!

The worst is Chaotic Neutral... the language of bard clichés and edgelord rogues.

Whatever process resulted in the creation of the bolded term …. Is against ALL OF THE GENEVA CONVENTIONS.

Ewww no thanks. I don't wanna tell players how to run their characters. I've never understood what alignment was supposed to add to the game, other than trying to fit role-play into awkward boxes.

I think we usually write it down. The only characters we play where it's really a thing is our all Evil Wizards game, mostly because it's part of the theme, and because we gave a LOT of thought as to what makes each of the characters "evil" and they're all different "shades" of evil, so we gave a lot of thought to that as well.

Nearly all my characters are Neutral Good, though. Which to me just means that they're basically good people that don't give much thought to laws or codes.

I was merely jesting. Insta-Kender DMing is illegal in most countries, I believe.
