Message: <blockquote data-quote="The Serge" data-source="post: 412850" data-attributes="member: 4049">What you describe sounds more like Neutral Evil than Chaotic Evil to me.  Neutral Evil is about doing whatever it takes to get what you want.  If it means following rules, fine.  If it means breaking the law, fine.  If it means being loyal and honest for the time being, fine.  If it means betraying a trusted and loyal ally, fine.  CE is about immediate personal power.  It doesn't wait.  While it may think, it doesn't think long, nor does it plan long.  It's about going in, destoying everything in sight, bullying, and maintaining a turf through sheer power.  It's about never trusting anyone and eliminating those weak enough to trust you.  There are no laws or consistency of rules beyond what the current leader says, and if a lacky can get away with disregarding the leader's rules when they become an impediment, that's what will happen.  Lower ranking Demons live in a mixture of fear and hate under the heels of greater Demons; they obey out of fear, and because the current leader has proven his/her/its strength (which provides sustenance and some modicum of protection within the gang) in maintaining its position of authority.  If something better comes along and the Demon can get to it with no worries, it's gone immediately.  There are never allies, never friends, only future enemies.  There are never rules, just immediate gratification.  If there's a goal, it lasts as long as it doesn't seem something else to wet its appetite.  Anything of value has no meaning and must be torn down... even if the goal is in sight. LE is about consolidation, tyranny, control, slavery, and the utter oppression of the spirit and the body.  While NE is about the selfish desire at the expense of others or hopelessness, and while CE is about entropy, destruction, and mindless rage, LE is goal-oriented control that takes everything of value and uses it in pursuit of said goal.  Everything appears to make utter, twisted sense.  It is designed to reward the strongest and sublimate and stomp out the weakest.  It's about justification and proof of anything to promote the cause.  It's about goose-stepping, genocidal maniacs who use laws to justify the existance of an empire, riech, or what-have-you for a given group, putting it above all others; then, within the group, there are further stratifications, all designed to maintain the status quo.  The leaders are entrenched, distrustful, and ready to destroy any opposition within the letter of the law.  They are worshipped and obeyed out of blind loyalty and fear by most underlings.  While I respect what you're offering, you appear to be clumping all Evil alignments into one group, and that doesn't work.</blockquote>
