A LG individual can do chaotic and evil actions, there is no prohibition on actions inherent in an alignment. If he does enough chaotic and evil actions so that overall the character taken as a whole is more properly categorized as a different alignment then an alignment shift is in order.Only a paladin has game effects for doing single evil or chaotic actions.So is promiscuity evil or chaotic? I would say no. I would argue it is value neutral like most things not inherently good or evil on its own but depending upon context and usually neither. So is a LG character affected by doing neutral actions. No, the majority of a person's actions chatting, eating, earning a living, are neutral and don't affect whether you are a good or a bad person, or whether you favor groups over individuals.I would not have promiscuity affect a LG character's alignment in my games.I can see an argument that if trying to place it on the law chaos axis that promiscuity is generally chaotic, but I don't think it necessarily or inherently is.</blockquote>
