[QUOTE="Mistwell, post: 8286266, member: 2525"] It's literally TWO CHARACTERS. A "CE" or a "LE" or a "NE" in a stat block. It was a helpful tool to help DMs make on-the-fly decisions about how an NPC might react. The "E" was obvious from "relentless killer" but not the L, N, or C. DMs never had to follow it, but it had its uses and didn't take up a lot of space. It changed that killer from "The L might mean they belong to an assassins guild and therefore have a set of rules they need to follow on who they can kill, how they can kill them, and what other rules they need to follow while pursuing their target" to "The C might mean they are looking to cause as much chaos as possible in the population, killing everyone in sight, setting fires, little regard for city guard eing called, while in pursuit of their target," etc.. Two littler characters which could serve to carry a heavy load in the toolbasket of experienced DMs working on the fly with an NPC, if the DM wanted to use it. And no harm to anyone if people didn't want to use it. [/QUOTE]
