[QUOTE="EzekielRaiden, post: 6598627, member: 6790260"] Just to collect the answers above, you have... -- The Knight Templar. Doesn't know he's actually evil. Most easily justified as a "I bring order to chaos and sweep away the inefficiencies so people can live and work as well as possible!" kind of person. Or a less-insane Handsome Jack (from Borderlands 2); someone so completely convinced of his own heroism, he's okay with murdering innocents and stealing from the homeless. After all, if it were bad, he wouldn't be doing it, because he's a Hero! -- "In 'Good' Comany." Knows he's evil--and approves of the Evil things he finds. After all, he does the Devil's own work, or can appreciate a master craftsman. -- "I still have *standards.*" Knows (to one degree or another) that he's Not A Nice Person, but there are lines he won't cross. Works especially well if the Lawful side is strong, but not [I]too[/I] strong (that verges on Knight Templar territory). And then one of my own: -- "Tch. Competition." He knows how evil minds work--because he's got one--and he knows [I]they're after the same things he is.[/I] Other Evils are not so much hated or feared, but rather evaluated by how much they interfere with his own machinations. This works especially well for a more "chessmaster-y" or "charlatan" kind of character, one dipped in subterfuge or long-range plans. [/QUOTE]
