[QUOTE="Hexmage-EN, post: 8049304, member: 79428"] There's varying degress of recklessness and motivations for it. I think one of the greatest unintentional examples of Chaotic Good I've ever seen was in a political argument I followed on another forum. I saved what this individual wrote for inspiration on how a particularly zealous Chaotic Good individual thinks: Using this as a base, you could say characters that are strongly Chaotic and mildly Good are interested in taking actions that they hope will turn out for the best and deemphasizing the risks posed by their actions. People who worry too much about unintended consequences are people who never accomplish anything and let existing suffering persist indefinitely because they're too afraid of what might happen. A Lawful Good character might argue that a corrupt nobility might need to be reformed through the system or deposed carefully to avoid instability in the region. A particularly zealous Chaotic Good individual wants the nobility thrown out on their ass ASAP, rules and regulations be damned, and all their ill-gotten gains redistributed, a "rip the band-aid off" approach. If this leads to negative consequences they'll just come back and take down whatever new threats arise. [/QUOTE]
