[QUOTE="Zogmo, post: 3858576, member: 17682"] Found a few things previously posted here about alignment. Hope this helps anyone who hasn't read it yet. This first one was taken from ashockney who was at the 4E Q&A seminar: Q: [B]Will alignment be a factor in the new edition?[/B] A: It’s not going to be what it is now. Alignment is part of the story, part of the character. It is a useful shorthand, but too many books and too many players mistake it for limitation. We want to treat alignment as something bigger than that. We won’t get rid of it, but we don’t want it to be a replacement for character and personality.

One of the most memorable ones was, Q:[B]"Will 4E have paladins that aren't lawful good?"[/B] A: The answer is yes. Hell, you can have evil paladins of Asmodeus in 4E. More on that later.
