Alignment - What am I?

[Hackenslash]

Neutral

I would say Neutral, self-motivated and determined to succeed at his own ambitions no matter what. Though he could make a stong case for Lawfull Neutral based on his own moral standings, which may not necessarily reflect the campaign worlds ethical views but could mean he follows his own principles and generally has zero tolerance for anything that gets in the way of these goals, good or evil. But then again that does sound too selfish for Lawfull Neutral so I will stick with my first choice and go with True Neutral.....Definitely.

I'd say true neutral.

However... ask yourself what would you have done if the orcs, ghouls and drows were just humans; if the answer is "the same", then you are probably evil. Right now, the fact that your victims were likely evil (orcs), certainly evil (ghouls), and almost certainly evil (drow) is the only thing that holds you to neutrality.

As for the law-chaos axis, we don't really have enough information, so I figure neutral. Could be lawful though - you rule a kingdom, which has well-defined taxes, and you have maxims you adhere to; these are signs of lawfulness.

Neutral evil looks like the best call to me. calling that sort of behavior true neutral indicates that its the way a normal person could be expected to behave (I consider humanity naturally neutral.) It isn't. Normal people don't "leave no one alive", nor do they want to found a kingdom for the sole purpose of taxing everyone.

(now if he wanted to found a kingdom for some purpose that the 'subjects' would actually go along with and establish taxes for the upkeep and defense of the kingdom, thats one thing, but he gave no indication of that. Seems more like a money making sceme.)

There has to be a chaotic element to it. Nobody non-chaotic would spell that way.

Now, now, we're talking about his character, not him... His character may be a master grammerian...

Killing a group of people over an insult is pretty evil. Just because somebody doesnt go around slaughtering every person he comes across doesnt mean he is neutral. Neutrals seek to avoid killing unless given no other recourse. He kills when it seems the most efficient way to accomplish his goals and he kills with no guilt.

Also, anyone planning to set up a country just to force people to pay a third of their income to him is pretty evil (hear that you damn politicians?).

Sorry, I was in a rush and didn`t have time to spell check it.
I am really sorry.

Without knowing deeper reasons for why you want to found a Kingdom and have everyone pay 1/3 of their taxes to you, I hesitate call you "evil". Is it just for greed? How do you plan to recruit subjects?

Free some slaves here and there ask some people nicely if they might considering to live in my country rather than in their old country which might be raid by demons.
"No good chap I wont help you defend your city, you don`t pay taxes to me. But if you cross those mountains, there is a nice city in which you have a nice new building and you only have to pay me my taxes. The other laws? - I don`t care - you can even elect SO to make your own laws."
Is their any other reason as "raise money" to establish a rule over a country?

I don't see him having any problem with flaying a few alive.

Is there a problem? I do miss your point in there.
A yes it is a waste. I won`t do that anymore.

The potential lawful side to him is that he justifies it with a personal code, and is doing this with the intent of establishing a semblance of order. He may crack a few skulls to do so if it's the quickest route, but it's worth it in the end..

The first one who sees me lawful - thank you supe.

now if he wanted to found a kingdom for some purpose that the 'subjects' would actually go along with and establish taxes for the upkeep and defense of the kingdom, thats one thing, but he gave no indication of that. Seems more like a money making sceme.

I am building a stronghold and a city. I need those founds to raise a army to defend both.
I dont use those founds for personal pleasure, but will use some of it for spell research - which is a pleasure for wizards.

I'd go with neutral with evil tendancies. Mmm... tendancies...
