[QUOTE="I'm A Banana, post: 376396, member: 2067"] I would say that, also, just because alignments may be absolute, that doesn't mean that the *characters* know what their alignment is. Take the Albin. These guys are mad-skilled empaths without barriers...they automatically feel the feelings of those around them, and are affected by it. They come accross a wounded, pained individual, and they feel that pain just as strongly. Now, add to that that they're also superb healers. You've got a people who wander around healing the wounds of others without asking for payment or recompese. They seem to be purely altruistic. In reality, they're eternally suffering, and only healing you to make themselves stop hurting. They're selfish and greedy, and want to be the best-feeling around. Heck, many theorize that if they make everyone else happy, their power from feeding on the positive emotions will be so great that they can claim rulership over all, break the empathy, and make these ungrateful pukes serve *them.* The Albin are steadily neutral, verging on evil. But, since they go around healing everyone, people see them as good and altruistic. I love shades of gray. :) [/QUOTE]
