[QUOTE="5ekyu, post: 7782601, member: 6919838"] "But, if you ALWAYS do what you agree to do, that makes you lawful. If your whims are to always be trustworthy, then, well, that's not chaotic anymore. That's lawful. While, sure, you can do one or the other from time to time, my point is, if you follow your whims and your personal freedom is paramount to you, is the highest priority to you, then you are inherently untrustworthy. " Even when I ran alignment this was not true in my games. "Being" an alignment foes not mesn adopting every aspect of it. A chaotic character could be chaotic in a lot of different ways but still keep to his own code in some respects. "Your whims" does not mean random acts. Thsts more a form of insanity. That means what you want to do and that can include not crapping on beneficial agreements. I think perhaps this exemplifies some of the issues that use of alignment tends to create - the driving to extremes and express lane ftom "must" to "always" or suddenly "you are honor thst alignment." For too many folks, it's like alignment is used as a trap or an excuse. [/QUOTE]
