[QUOTE="5ekyu, post: 7782742, member: 6919838"] "And, [MENTION=6919838]5ekyu[/MENTION]'s idea of whims. You own definition states that whims are illogical - they cannot be explained" But the definition I posted did not say "cannot be explained" it said unexplained. This gets to the crux of the divide you are creating... you are taking chaotic to an extreme, beyond preference and whim to dang close to insane. That's a bias that I find myself not supported in the sources. Maybe it's how far you need to go to make your point, I dont know, but its unlike where in my experience the majority of games I have seen who bothered with alignment were played. It's odd that the DnD system draws so many to it that may see that as somehow how it was intended. I mean, few other games prompt this kind of expectation of lunacy. Even VtM with its Malkavians expected to see manageable levels of lunacy and in Cthulu that kind of thing was an expected outcome of exposure, not do much a defined starting point. Oh well. Hope it works for you and serves your games well. [/QUOTE]
