[QUOTE="doctorbadwolf, post: 8854815, member: 6704184"] I'd say Neutral Evil, or True Neutral at [I]best[/I]. They certainly aren't lawful, generally speaking, unless you count actively seeking to change the law in their favor. But the thing to remember is that wizards of the coast is not actually a company. It's a department or Hasbro, which is a publicly traded corporation owned by people who literally would only care if the entire operation burned to the ground if it turned out they couldn't come out of it having made money. I think this is probably the single biggest focus for the DDB team right now. If people can publish their DMsGuild content on DDB for people to use with the DDB character builder and sheet, or the encounter builder, or whatever tools are added in the future, that is an enormous increase in monetization. Yeah, the thing working in favor of this is that what is needed to accomplish it (an easy to use general features system) is also needed to efficiently add official content to the platform, and to actually fully support existing rules, like PC sidekicks and self-adjusting summon and pet statblocks.
