[QUOTE="Edena_of_Neith, post: 452791, member: 2020"] I garner from the above posts that everyone has a different view of the nine alignments, and many would prefer to drop alignment in their games. And yet, the RPGA uses the alignment rules, and the overworked (and they are overworked) RPGA Judge must make alignment calls. This is because evil alignments are not allowed in the RPGA, and a non-evil character who commits an evil act can be ruled as becoming evil, and thus is relegated to NPC status. And the Judge must decide the matter. So, at least for one group of gamers (those in the RPGA) alignment is a very real and important rule, and some strong definitions are in order for each of the nine alignments. I am curious as to what other people's definitions of the nine alignments are. That is, could some of you post as I did? Give the nine alignments as you see them? I appreciate the rebuttals and the opinions given: there are many reasonable points of view expressed there, and a lot of good logic. Still, I ask: what is your take on each of the nine alignments?
