[QUOTE="Glyfair, post: 5170456, member: 53"] Honestly, no one really understands the Law/Chaos dynamics. At least there is no consistent idea pf what they mean. Look at the various discussions on the alignment of House or Batman, etc. Everyone picks out various elements to say they are Chaotic or Lawful. There are too many "pick and choose" elements to determine whether someone is lawful or chaotic. (Not that good or evil are exempt, but there is less disagreement there). Then again, Law/Chaos isn't gone (even eliminating the odd keeping of LG/CE). Read the description, Maruts are still Lawful. Their motivation is the same, it's just not tied to the game mechanic "alignment." Creatures and characters still can have so called lawful and chaotic motivations. You just don't have to decide whether a creature that has a strong code of conduct they stick to that deals with tearing apart civilization is lawful or chaotic. [/QUOTE]
