[QUOTE="noko, post: 7980499, member: 7022809"] I asked one of my players, and she says: "[I]For Chaotic evil, you can just make all of the choices you wouldn't otherwise make. A woman tells you she lost her wallet? Go and hunt the thief down and take it from them. But don't give that wallet back to her. It's yours now. You reap the benefits. Being evil means you feel free to use other peoples' misfortune to your advantage. Neutral evil works sort of the same way, except with more leniency toward following along with the good guy.
