[QUOTE="Tequila Sunrise, post: 5682857, member: 40398"] Yeah, where's the option for "It doesn't matter, so who cares?"? :cool: Alignment is meaningless in 4e, so my players can write whatever they want in that entry. Including nothing at all. Or 'passionate gondlefop.' I don't even write 'neutral'...er, I mean 'unaligned.' I've never had a DM ask what my alignment is. ____________________________________________ I'm continually amazed at how other 4e gamers assume that alignment means anything. Just this past weekend, I discovered that two of my players thought that 4e gods can take away divine powers from characters who offend them. One of them isn't a rules guy, and isn't even a D&D guy, so I wasn't surprised that he assumed that TSR alignment rules still hold. But the other one is definitely a rules guy who's been playing 4e since publication, but this Sunday was the first time he had actually read the alignment text of a divine class. :confused: Fraking incredible, right?
