Why not just ban all Alignment as a Stat? You and the pc's will still have to navigate a moral compass, as I am assuming that heroic fantasy still requires morality and there will be Good and Evil but decisions will be based on character and actual roleplay, rather than an opaque list of rules.It's rather liberating running a game without the 9 point alignment grid. Simply put, PCs and NPCS are judged by what they do, not by what is written on their character sheet.Yeah, there will be still be tough choices in game and  PC's will still have  to decide on the spot the best course of action . And if the moral situations  are  challenging, and if there is second guessing and remorse and guilt  after the fact, well it's called character conflict, and actually  deepens the drama ... if literature is to be any guide.On an aside, how come we always have Paladin alignment  threads, but rarely Ranger alignment threads. Is it because they are seen as more Dirty Aragon Harry than Galahad so nobody fudges with them?</blockquote>
