[QUOTE="HellHound, post: 2494257, member: 3397"] As someone who rates between Chaotic Good and Chaotic Evil on most alignment tests, I'm going to state that, IMO, people's methods of playing CN are pretty crappy in general. Chaotic can be flighty, but it isn't always. Chaotic Neutrals are often freedom fighters, but ones who don't always look to the common good before going into the fight. Sure, there has to be some motivation for me to do something, but as a good player, I'LL be the one to make sure it is there, its not the job of the DM to put it there. Being CN doesn't mean I don't value friendship, even CE character value friendship - in fact, one of the things that can make a CE person Evil is the way they treat their friends... do you believe that your friends deserve better treatment than other people? Great! Not a very "good" outlook, but definitely one that suits adventuring VERY well. So, when my friends get involved in a gig, adventure, etc, I go along because they are my friends. That's not lawful, that's human. I may not go along with everything they want, but more likely, I just don't get along with local legalities and regulations, and still pay at least lip service to the 'house rules' of my friends.
