Then think of the lawful good fighter who enjoys tavern brawls, likes to sleep around and generally causes a ruckus... but within the confines (mostly) of the law.If we break down your characters' motives we get:1. You like arresting bad guys. You don't do the job because it's the right thing to do, you do it because you like it.2. You've decided to steal because you want the money, not because the criminals must pay. You are becoming corrupted by your position - first stage is enjoying your work. Second stage is abusing your position. I would firmly plant you as evil (barely) based on your decision and see where you go from there. As for lawful, there's no way I would attribute you as lawful from your description of enjoying breaking the rules, while still following them to some degree.If you're wanting to play Lawful Neutral, you would need to stick to enjoying enforcing the law without concern for feelings, and not try to steal everything like a criminal.If you're wanting to play Lawful Evil, you need to ensure the law is respected above all else, using it to benefit yourself (for example if someone pays you for your patrol route so they can know when not to bump into you with their "supplies").This is, of course, open to interpretation but were I to DM someone with a character like yourself I would definitely not accept them as Lawful while abusing their position so frivolously.</blockquote>
