[QUOTE="MechaTarrasque, post: 6758510, member: 6801226"] The archon might be wrong, but he might be right too--that is a DM/setting issue. I am not aware of any alignment/theological longitudinal surveys of people in any setting that look at the average alignment, self perception vs. actual alignment, and alignment changes over time from WotC, Paizo, or TSR that could give us a clue in how many people think they are "CG" (or whatever someone in universe would call it) while having a different alignment. If half the souls going to Limbo incorrectly thought they were "CG" when they died, the archon might have a good point, and the eldarin aren't as effective at selling "good" as they are "chaos." Really all we know about are PC's who are special in a lot of ways, including having players who will argue with DM's about changing their alignment, even after said player had the PC burn down an orphanage on the off chance there was some gps in the basement (and I quote "who ever heard of poor orphans?").
