[QUOTE="Fanaelialae, post: 5856788, member: 53980"] I disagree. I think True Neutral definitely has a place in the alignment system. The figure who acts to maintain balance between other powers is a good example of this. I see Unaligned as more of a way to opt out of the alignment system. More or less, "I choose to not dedicate myself to the cause of a moral philosophy". Traditionally, that fell under the purview of True Neutral, but I think TN serves better to represent keepers of the balance. Unaligned would be more like, "You crazy aligned guys do whatever you're gonna do, just leave me out of it". It's effectively self-interested, but not to the point of evil. An unaligned person isn't likely to screw someone else over to get what they want, but they also aren't going to run into a burning orphanage, or act to preserve the cosmic balance without a good reason to do so. They're unaligned. [/QUOTE]
