[QUOTE="Bardsandsages, post: 3298580, member: 28771"] That depends on your worldview. Remember her history. She was there when Lodoss was first cursed and saw firsthand what happens when one power gets out of control. In order to insure that that never happens again, she takes it upon herself to actively maintain the balance. Look at the Jedi. They would probably be considered True Nuetral. They tolerated slavery, which is obviously an evil institution. They mind control innocent people all the time (Jedi Mind Trick). But they were taking a more long term view of the cosmos. And remember, some things one culture defines as "good" are "evil" in another. In some parts of the world, cows are sacred creatures. McDonalds is definately "evil" by those standards. I've met vegetarians who think meat eaters are murderers. A true nuetral person would aspire to insure that no one particular view is imposed on everyone. And that might mean committing what others would believe are "evil" acts in order to meet that goal. [/QUOTE]
