What is your alignment?

[Feyd Rautha]

I chose Neutral Evil, but really, I'd say I'm Neutral with Evil tendencies.

-I help others and do the socially acceptable things most of the time (because I will get selfish rewards from it).
-I am not overly disciplined and I believe in everyone doing what they think is right so I'm not that lawful (although the punishments I'd mete out for violations are almost Islamic.)
-I believe in helping others actually, but would subject the rich and powerful to poverty and squalor in a heartbeat.
-My causes are just and others are sacreligious.

Basically, I'd fit in as a Roman citizen or Islamic hypocrite. Of course, this is all on my bad days. Some days I don't really feel like enslaving the world, but it's normally when I'm tired and don't want to spend the energy (another chaotic trait).

Also, all the "alignment tests" I've taken have given me this back... go fig.

I am Neutral Good, actively and consciously. I don't give a frig about legality, I try to do the right thing whenever I can and help all those who are in trouble that I come into contact with.

And to those who said that they are evil, do you truly believe yourselves to be evil or are you being facetious?

 

[Teflon Billy]

whenever i take an online alignemnt test, I traditionally come out as Chaotic Evil, but the last few times, I've come out as Lawful Evil.

I think I've turned a corner.

I'd have to say im overall Neutral Good. It took me a while to come to that conclusion, but I think it fits me best. I hold doors open not just for little old ladies, but anyone who happens to be near the door when I am. I enjoyed Jury Duty if only because hearing how bad some other people are made me feel a little better that I haven't hit as low as that. I try and give honest, sound advice to freinds about their problems even when it might serve my interests better to give advice that will benefit me. (For example a lady friend of mine that I was interested in asked my advice about here breaking up with her boyfreind, and although I was quite tempted to say "Yep, definitely ditch the loser" I instead did the right thing and gave her more sound advice that didn't include that line.)

Unfortunately I am far from an active Neutral Good, its mostly just my outlook on things. I have on occassion lied (Though I try and avoid it) Stolen (Mostly in my younger days, and I'm pretty sure nothing over $5) and perhaps worst of all I have been known to trade Music files online. That alone nearly pushed me into the Evil category. I have been slowly shying away from it though, so theres no need for Recording Industry to come to my home and break my legs. So, essentially Neutral Good I'd say.

Lawful Good. I couldn't be a Paladin if I wasn't.

 

[Djeta Thernadier]

I'd call myself chaotic good.

 

[Tyreus]

I would say I'm choatic evil. I will do anything for myself as long as the pros outweigh the cons and I care nothing for other peoples troubles. I enjoy conflict and mayhem, particularily when I cause it. I hate when people think they have found purpose, such as a false religeon or performing acts of kindness, when their only hope of finding a shread of usefullness is to provide me with amusment.

I don't mean to give the impression that I am a very depressed individual, because as a psychological defence mechinism, (I can say it, but never believe it ) I believe I am different and superior then everyone else. Thus I am confident and happy. (whether it's an illusion or real, it works just the same)

 

[Lord Rasputin]

I chose Chaotic Good since that's what the Wizards test told me, but I'd consider myself somewhere between NG and CG. I almost surely lost lawful points since I don't consider blood to be an especially strong tie, something the Wizards test valued.

I'd be kinda curious how those with different socio-political philosophies map out, though I don't think there's much of a correlation, and I'd prefer that can of worms to remain shut.

 

[Azazyll]

I would like to say Lawful Neutral, and in the game, I go for that, but that's playing a character and working in the game mechanic, the way things work in a fairy tale land where you can seperate the good from the bad with a paltry first level spell (praise to Monte Cooke and Ravenloft for getting rid of that). But when I see people suffer, when I see poverty and crime and murder and the horrible things that people do to each other, and far worse the apathy that allows horrible things to happen to others, I feel a righteous indignation that in my vanity I imagine is something like the feeling an archon gets when it sees a pit fiend.

I'm not sure how I feel about evil. Frankly, I think that there are very few evil people out there. True evil, in my opinion, means you know something is evil and you do it for the sake of evil, cruelty for the sake of cruelty. You have to enjoy it, have to be sick and twisted enough to enjoy the darker emotions like hatred, jealousy, envy, pride and selfishness. And that can happen to anyone, but a good person fights it while an evil person revels in it. That's someone who's evil in alingment. To me, neutrality is far worse. Allowing evil to happen, knowing what it is and permitting such a thing to continue, is more galling to me than the evil itself. So perhaps evil is broader than my stricter feelings would suggest.

Don't the evil ones lie and say they are LG?

Hi all-
I always play all my PC's as LN. I figure that I can always say that I'm following the laws of my particular country.
But as a person, I feel that I am NE. I am very selfish. Very Selfish. I take candy from the little kids. Not to be mean, but becasue I like candy. Which is usually the area that the evilness comes in on the whole NE aspect. Being selfish is considered evil by D&D standards.

If I feel that it's against the law of the land but not against the law of mankind then I will certainly do it. Like speeding, or lane splittling (driving in-between cars on a motorcycle). Both are against the laws of Sin City, but not against my fellow man. So that would make me Neutral.

Fun Poll! I enjoyed this one!
