[QUOTE="Kalanyr, post: 1543282, member: 190"] I'm not sure I'd call the debate over Chaotic Good vs Lawful Evil, a reason to discount alignment, the problem is that these two diametrically opposing alignments have the same basis (which is true of all opposites Hot & Cold are differents end of the same scale of heat) which is "respect to those which I respect". The thing that differentiates them is precisely WHAT you respect, the CG character respects people who do not impinge on the freedom and wellbeing of yet others, the LE character respects those who can twist the law and inspire fear of consequences of doing the same in him. In this case I'd be inclined to say the character is probably LE, simly because he does not fit the first category (he's quiet happy to trample on anyone else as long as they are in the way of his goal not based on their relation with other people) not because he fits the later.
