Poll: What's Your Real Life Alignment?

[Lyx]

Never played the game so i dont know how the alignments work/what they mean.

Can someone give a brief rundown for the n00bs (i.e. me) and then I'll chose.

It's a two dimensional grid, with one axis representing order/lawevil - thus resulting in 9 possibilities.

Order and chaos in that game mainly is about if you believe that certain codexes and "rules" should be respected *regardless of the circumstances* (i.e. paladin), or if you tend to "rebell" against said rules (i.e. thief). Neutral in that case means, that you either don't care and just do what currently makes sense, or that you have a very "moderate" standpoint (i.e. believing in some laws, yet considering other laws stupid). An attempt to always strengthen the currently weak side, to keep a balance, would also classify as neutral.

As for the goodevil axis: Its a big vague mess of what people consider "good" and what they consider "evil". You can pretty much take standard western morals, and get a blueprint of whats considered good and whats considered evil. Neutral here plays the same role as with law/chaos - you may note care, have your own rules that depend on circumstances, or you may be trying to always strenghten the weak side to keep balance.

Most likely Lawful Evil.
Essentially I try to enforce logic on a situation, and then act in the way that will solve the problem/ achieve my goal while having as much fun along the way. Which often involves other people getting pissed off.

Then again, I sometimes remember that life's all for nothing and that problems/goals are hence irrelevant and then I go hedonistic on the world's arse. Which involves more people getting pissed off. I suppose that's Chaotic Evil. Or maybe Chaotic Neutral? I don't set out to do evil, it just sorta happens. Far more often than the good. Are unintentional evil-doers set to "Evil" on the scale or "Neutral"?
Guessing the former but correct me on that if I am wrong.

Lawful Good. Rules are rules, and they're (for the most part) made with the general public's best interest in mind. Don't be confused by the paladin who's forced to enforce an evil rule. A Paladin who must choose between chaos (breaking a bad law) or evil (enforcing a bad law) should change the law.
All this talk about "lawful stupid" reminds me of a dungeons and dragons player I used to play with. His character was a cleric who chose the alignment "stupid good". We renamed some of his spells to reflect his low intelligence score, such as "Hug person" instead of "Hold person" and "Bake Cookies" instead of "Conjure food and water". XD

 

[Zarthek]

Lawful Good. Mostly because I never seem to get in trouble and help others a fair amount.

Also every damn one of those alignment quizzes keeps calling me Lawful Good, so there's my backup for this.

 

[PureChaos]

i do whatever i feel like doing at the time, be it considered evil or good. what would that make me?

If you still tend to adhere to rules, then lawful neutral. If rules don't affect your decisions much (but you also don't break them for the sake of breaking them), then true neutral (also sometimes just called neutral). If you tend to rebell against rules, then chaotic neutral.

Ok... i had written a crazy long post here about how i display many different "alignments" and have seemingly contradictory tendencies. But we ALL have that. To make it all short:

Mainly Neutral Good: General Behavior and attitude
sprinkles of Lawful Neutral: Personal Code of honor, indifferences to most groups/persons
Maybe a few bits of chaotic good and lawful evil.

 

[Angerwing]

I'm Chaotic Good.

Best way to describe me is Morally sound, Ethically sketchy. I have a fairly clearly defined set of morals in my head. The don't really correlate with our laws, but on the whole I'm a very pleasant person to be caught at the mercy of.

But I can be a real asshole from time to time.

I chose LG just to see what the percentages were, but really, I don't believe in alignments. Still, I enjoy living in a highly peaceful, law-abiding society (Japan), and I think trying to make the world a better place is what we should all be doing...so LG, I guess.

Ah thank you that was very helpful. In light of this then i would say i'm somewhere between Chaotic Good and Neutral Good....so maybe Mildly Chaotic Good then?

 

[ICantBelieveItGoesBoom]

Neutral Good, I try to make thing's easier and more pleasant for anyone, even if they are kinda dicks.

Well, as you said, you'd be something in the middle. The system doesn't support that

What would happen in the game, is that the player would choose one of both, to which his char at the time seems a bit more attracted to. Then, some adventures would happen, the GM would look at the actions of the char afterwards, and if necessary do an "alignment change".

 

[Bioskorpion]

I guess you could call me a Lawful Good person in terms of alignment. I do good and I follow the laws of the land, even when surrounded by a "Chaotic" population.

The funny thing is that seems to transfer over to games with moral choices, but I won't go into too much depth with that.

 

[Jaythulhu]

Neutral with (Evil) tendencies when dealing with people;

Lawful Good when dealing with animals.

 

[Gotham Soul]

Neutral Evil. I'm willfully selfish, conniving, and I'm willing to step on people to get my way. I don't consider myself Lawful Evil because I don't willingly follow the law, I just follow it because I have to in order to get where I want to be.

Yes, I'm a bastard, but as said by Spider Jerusalem, "being a bastard works."

 

[The Afrodactyl]

Neutral. I can't be arsed up to pick a side and stick with it. So much easier to cruise along the middle of the road and swerve in a random direction every now and then.

This, I'm a real nice guy 40% of the time, and a psychopath the other 40%.

The 20% is the time I spend spacing out.

 

[ReaperzXIII]

I put Chaotic Good but what counts as neutral? I am a generally nice guy and help people out, but I would still step on people to advance further, use/manipulate people to gain means to an end (to a limit I wouldn't make people kill themselves or perform acts of evil), cheat etc...

Also I would do bad things if the end is a good enough reason, for example I would nuke a continent to save humanity.

 

[zehydra]

Chaotic good. Don't like being ruled, but I try to be a good person towards others.

Heh I recognise that avatar

 

[Jackalb]

Depends on the day and it's events so I just went for Neutral.
