[QUOTE="Gargoyle, post: 225482, member: 529"] Your example sounds more like Chaotic Evil to me than Chaotic Neutral, but interpretations aside, if you're the DM house rule it so that Chaotic Neutral isn't allowed if it is causing a problem. I always tell my players the following before the campaign starts: My campaign is one where the player characters are heroic allies. The player characters don't have to be good, and can even be quite close to evil at times, but they have to act like heroes most of the time, and they have to get along as well as most friends do. That makes my job as the DM easier when I create adventures and plan the campaign, keeps the party somewhat unified, and gives them the freedom to role-play their characters as they see fit, within certain guidelines. I don't restrict them to playing "within their alignment" or change their alignment based on their gameplay, but do suggest alignment changes to them if their behavior is way off. In fact I rarely pay attention to their alignments unless they are paladins or clerics. Hope this helps. [/QUOTE]
