A CG will break laws and have vows that do good but run contrary to society's norms. NG doesn't care about either, they do what they feel is best.Everytime a PC does something agaisnt their vows, they swing +/-5 or 10% away from their vows. At a pre-set range (60%), the DM penalizes them in game terms (can't sleep, indecisive, loses focus on tasks at hand, etc) due to ethical issues. At this point the DM explains what is happening, and the character has to either shape up or change their vows.If their class is alignment based, they will have to be very careful or else lose acces to growth in that class or losing all class abilities.Hope this alternative alignment system helps or gives you a few ideas.Dren</blockquote>
