[QUOTE="Drawmack, post: 489963, member: 4981"] [color=white] First let me say that these spells are commonly house ruled such that they only work on inatly aligned things. For example a demon is always evil. However something who's alignment varries, or can vary like humanoids. Now lets move onto the core rules way of doing it. First I would say that in scenario I the character's alignment had changed in accordance with his appifany. Allow me to quote the general definition of what these spell do. The house rulling noted above does have some support for the text as if refers to the evil creature which leaves it up to your definition of an evil creature. Anyway moving on. The second question, "what about a character with multiple personalities, one twisted and psychotic torture loving baby killer, and a completely antithetical nature that the person would switch between?" After 1 round: they will detect the presence of the chaos. After 2 round: they will detect a single aura of chaos. After 3 round: they will locate the section of the persons brain where this aura lives. This gets really interesting when casting multiple detect spells at once though. He shows on all of them.
