[QUOTE="Krishnath, post: 453000, member: 56"] [color=lightblue]Ferret: No not really, not nearly that many elves are good spellcasters, heck, I doubt more than 10 to 15% of all high or grey elves know hows to cast magic missile... The only creatures that are 'Always' a certain alignment, are outsiders with the alignment subtype (good, evil, lawful, or chaotic outsiders) such as demons, devils, celestials, and genies. In all other cases, the creatures can differ somewhat. I think humans for example are usually neutral, which of course means that roughly 20% of all humans are neutral. While a dryad in 90% of the cases is CG, a small number is of some other alignment. With dragons it is a little different, as their alignment has a lot to do with their instincts, but I would say that a Red dragon that was raised by a gold dragon is very rarely CE, but more often CN. And a good red dragon is one in a million, but not impossible. Personally I usually let dragons move one alignment step in any direction, depending on if that particular dragons disposition and history. But on rare occassions I let them skip several steps if it fits. For example a wyrmling red dragon that was saved by a paladin or other good character might decide to become a force for good.
