[QUOTE="Crucius, post: 6560292, member: 6791903"] In my recent campaign, Carrion Crown, I'm beginning to see a pattern with Chaotic Neutral. Let me back up a bit. As I said, I've been playing the [PF][/PF] AP Carrion Crown with 6 other guys. I'm a NG Inquisitor, and we have the following: Human LG Paladin of Iomedae (Knight of Ozem Initiate) Human NG Inquisitor of Iomedae (Me) Human NG Monk of Iomedae Human CG Cleric of Iomedae Half-elf N Druid of Foresty Stuff Previously Human, now Lizardfolk CN Sorcerer of Pharasma As you can probably tell, we tried to rock the whole Iomedean party. Unfortunately, The Sorcerer saw fit to not get on board. Which is fine, I understand not wanting to go along completely with the group. Inter-party conflict is often loads of fun. Side-note: The Druid was originally another Paladin of Iomedae, but was killed in Harrowstone (The first book's final dungeon). The Sorcerer was human but died, and was reincarnated as a lizardfolk. Now, my question is: Is the Chaotic Neutral alignment a free pass to do as one pleases (Within the boundaries of sanity)? This Sorcerer and my Inquisitor do not get along. The Sorcerer is really shady, and likes to do the whole 'I'm a creepy sorcerer, my magicks are not for those of weak heart' which is cool in it's own right. But he desired a book from my character, and to get it, used an illusion spell to create a dead version of my character on the floor, and whilst my character was having a panic attack he stole the book with an invisible servant. After this escapade, there was a time where we were running like hell from a very angry ghost whilst we had low health. He was ahead of us, and knew that the doors ahead of us had a haunt that caused damage on them. He closed the doors behind him, justifying that he did not want the ghost following the other members of our party. Are these acts evil? Because his character, although not of evil alignment, has screwed each party member over at some point for his own personal gain. Is this not the definition of evil alignments? Any input is appreciated. [/QUOTE]
