What Moral and Ethical Alignment Do You Have?

[Philosoraptor]

Alright, this quiz is designed to give you an idea of where on the axis of Law vs. Chaos and Good vs. Evil you fall. These are drawn straight from the Dungeons and Dragons game, but they raise some interesting points about ourselves as people. Here's how the alignment grid looks:

Lawful Good------Neutral Good-----Chaotic Good
----|-----------------|-----------------|
----|-----------------|-----------------|
Lawful Neutral----True Neutral------Chaotic Neutral
----|-----------------|-----------------|
----|-----------------|-----------------|
Lawful Evil--------Neutral Evil------Chaotic Evil

EDIT: This (http://easydamus.com/alignment.html) is a great website for explaining more about the nine alignments. It goes into a fair amount of depth for each one.

Here (http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/dnd/20001222b)'s the quiz for you to take. How did you do?

Personally, when I take this quiz I usually end up as Neutral Good or Lawful Good with a strong tendency towards NG.

EDIT: I want to keep a tally of how many people fall into which categories.

Lawful Good- 4
Neutral Good- 7
Chaotic Good- 2
Lawful Neutral- 3
True Neutral- 2
Chaotic Neutral- 1
Lawful Evil- 0
Neutral Evil- 2
Chaotic Evil- 3

Total: 24

On the Good vs. Evil Axis, SI is overwhelmingly Good.
On the Law vs. Chaos Axis, SI is mostly Neutral.

The most common alignment for SI is Neutral Good.

Breakdown by percentage:

Good 54.17%
Lawful 16.67%
Neutral 29.17%
Chaotic 8.33%

Neutral 25%
Lawful 12.5%
True 8.33%
Chaotic 4.17%

Evil 20.83%
Lawful 0%
Neutral 8.33%
Chaotic 12.5%

=O im chaoctic evil? huh thats a first then again....heheh

[ibbs]

i got this...
Neutral Good

A neutral good character does the best that a good person can do. He is devoted to helping others. He works with kings and magistrates but does not feel beholden to them. The common phrase for neutral good is "true good." Neutral good is the best alignment you can be because it means doing what is good without bias toward or against order.

[KittyKatBlack]

Chaotic Good

A chaotic good character acts as his conscience directs him with little regard for what others expect of him. He makes his own way, but he’s kind and benevolent. He believes in goodness and right but has little use for laws and regulations. He s it when people try to intimidate others and tell them what to do. He follows his own moral compass, which, although good, may not agree with that of society. Chaotic good is the best alignment you can be because it combines a good heart with a free spirit.

[Naruto]

Based on your answers to the quiz, your character’s most likely alignment is Neutral Good.

[narutofandude]

wtf i got Chaotic Evil

[The Humanist]

Neutral Good. I tried to answer as honestly as I could.

[TheJWF]

Here's what I got:
Your Character’s Alignment

Based on your answers to the quiz, your character’s most likely alignment is Lawful Neutral.

Lawful Neutral

A lawful neutral character acts as law, tradition, or a personal code directs her. Order and organization are paramount to her. She may believe in personal order and live by a code or standard, or she may believe in order for all and favor a strong, organized government. The common phrase for lawful neutral is "true lawful." Lawful neutral is the best alignment you can be because it means you are reliable and honorable without being a zealot.

--excerpted from the Player’s Handbook, Chapter 6

I still have no idea what that is

[Philosoraptor]

Neutral Good. I tried to answer as honestly as I could.

Really? I would have thought you would tend towards Chaotic Good or Chaotic Neutral.

Surprisingly, I retook this quiz and ended up as Chaotic Good.

Hmm....Seems about right to me. Lol :laugh:

[Suicidal-kun]

Neutral Evil

A neutral evil villain does whatever she can get away with. She is out for herself, pure and simple. She sheds no tears for those she kills, whether for profit, sport, or convenience. She has no love of order and holds no illusion that following laws, traditions, or codes would make her any better or more noble. On the other hand, she doesn’t have the restless nature or love of conflict that a chaotic evil villain has. The criminal who robs and murders to get what she wants is neutral evil. Some neutral evil villains hold up evil as an ideal, committing evil for its own sake. Most often, such villains are devoted to evil deities or secret societies. The common phrase for neutral evil is "true evil." Neutral evil is the most dangerous alignment because it represents pure evil without honor and without variation.

--excerpted from the Player’s Handbook, Chapter 6

Lol, first Neutral Evil to post. I think it suits me fairly well, though Chaotic Good would do a fair job in describing me as well.

That's really strange. I think the best approximation for you would actually be something like Chaotic Neutral then, since it is the alignment of free spirits who don't subscribe to the idea of morality at all but also don't do evil for evil's sake.

[Suicidal-kun]

That's really strange. I think the best approximation for you would actually be something like Chaotic Neutral then, since it is the alignment of free spirits who don't subscribe to the idea of morality at all but also don't do evil for evil's sake.Possibly. I definitely would say that I was a free spirit to an extent, caring very little for government control and laws, in fact I oppose both. But I also only do evil when it would only benefit me. So I guess Chaotic Neutral might be correct. Ah well, the one I got still does a fair job in describing me and with it I'm "pure evil" so I'm happy. XD

Pure evil is an interesting description of me, one that those who know me really well might say suits me. I can be incredibly deceiving, manipulative, and generally ****ed-up mentally at times.:laugh:

[Black .D.]

Lawful Good
A lawful good character acts as a good person is expected or required to act. She combines a commitment to oppose evil with the discipline to fight relentlessly. She tells the truth, keeps her word, helps those in need, and speaks out against injustice. A lawful good character hates to see the guilty go unpunished. Lawful good is the best alignment you can be because it combines honor and compassion.

I never knew I was so up tight I thought I would get Neutral good

[scoophut]

Neutral good. Aka... boring.

True neutral, I flipped a couple of coins on some questions, though and skipped a bunch (all that about kingdom ect.).

[NinjaRaccoon66]

Chaotic Neutral >:D

A chaotic neutral character follows his whims. He is an individualist first and last. He values his own liberty but doesn’t strive to protect others’ freedom. He avoids authority, resents restrictions, and challenges traditions. The chaotic neutral character does not intentionally disrupt organizations as part of a campaign of anarchy. To do so, he would have to be motivated either by good (and a desire to liberate others) or evil (and a desire to make those different from himself suffer). The common phrase for chaotic neutral is "true chaotic." Remember that the chaotic neutral character may be unpredictable, but his behavior is not totally random. He is not as likely to jump off a bridge as to cross it. Chaotic neutral is the best alignment you can be because it represents true freedom both from society’s restrictions and from a do-gooder’s zeal.


YAY!! >w<

[Abbath]

Based on your answers to the quiz, your character’s most likely alignment is Neutral.

Neutral

A neutral character does what seems to be a good idea. She doesn’t feel strongly one way or the other when it comes to good vs. evil or law vs. chaos. Most neutrality is a lack of conviction or bias rather than a commitment to neutrality. Such a character thinks of good as better than evil. After all, she would rather have good neighbors and rulers than evil ones. Still, she’s not personally committed to upholding good in any abstract or universal way. Some neutral characters, on the other hand, commit themselves philosophically to neutrality. They see good, evil, law, and chaos as prejudices and dangerous extremes. They advocate the middle way of neutrality as the best, most balanced road in the long run. The common phrase for neutral is "true neutral." Neutral is the best alignment you can be because it means you act naturally, without prejudice or compulsion. True neutral, eh.

[ProvidenceX]

well we knew i was ganna be some kind of evil didn't we

Chaotic Evil
A chaotic evil character does whatever his greed, hatred, and lust for destruction drive him to do. He is hot-tempered, vicious, arbitrarily violent, and unpredictable. If simply out for whatever he can get, he is ruthless and brutal. If he is committed to the spread of evil and chaos, he is even worse. Thankfully, his plans are haphazard, and any groups he joins or forms are poorly organized. Typically, chaotic evil people can only be made to work together by force, and their leader lasts only as long as he can thwart attempts to topple or assassinate him. The demented sorcerer pursuing mad schemes of vengeance and havoc is chaotic evil. Chaotic evil is sometimes called "demonic" because demons are the epitome of chaotic evil. Chaotic evil is the most dangerous alignment because it represents the destruction not only of beauty and life but of the order on which beauty and life depend. --excerpted from the Player’s Handbook, Chapter 6

Heh, I think you're the only one who has responded to this thread thus far that even knows how these alignments actually play out in the game. Would you say that LG accurately describes you?

so how do they affect the game?

[Philosoraptor]

so how do they affect the game?

What I was referring to is the fact that the nine alignments presented in that grid rarely serve as an exact guide to how a character acts. For example, a lawful good character does not necessarily have to punish lawbreakers as long as they subscribe to some sort of code of conduct that they take very seriously and which generally embodies good behavior, but a paladin who kills evil creatures without even asking them what they did first could also be called lawful good.

EDIT: Also, there are certain effects that only affect good, evil, lawful, or chaotic creatures.

the first part i completely knew already
as for the edit.... so it basically dicatates the different bonuses and i'm assuming negative bonuses (couldn't think of a more suitable word then negative bonuses atm) that are avalible to each player, i'm guessing it allows plays into the affects from special skills right lol

Well, as an example there are five powerful spells in the game that affect creatures of certain alignments. They are as follows:

Holy Word: Harms non-good creatures, especially evil ones.
Blashphemy: Harms non-evil creatures, especially good ones.
Dictum: Harms non-lawful creatures, especially chaotic ones.
Word of Chaos: Harms non-chaotic creatures, especially lawful ones.
Word of Balance: Harms (you guessed it) non-neutral creatures.

In addition, there are certain items and artifacts that respond differently to users with different alignments. A shield with the soul of a long dead paladin inside of it will aid good creatures in their quests, but an evil creature that tries to pick it up may suffer a penalty for trying to force the shield to cooperate.

Another example: There is a set of three items called the Regalia of Evil that the mortal champion of all evil is supposed to wear, and it bestows unholy power upon a person who is morally corrupt to the core. However, the Regalia will try to dominate or destroy creatures who are not purely evil enough to use it.

Hmm
I feel like playing D&D after hearing that, it sounds like a pretty interesting game.

[Philosoraptor]

Hmm

Alignment is just the beginning of it. Consider the following situation:

Paladins are bound by their code of conduct to never consort with evil creatures knowingly. What, then, should Tyomar the Bold do when faced with this situation?

A village is being raided in the middle of the night by a marauding band of trolls. Tyomar learns of the location of their lair, and he sets off to slay the evil beasts and free the town from the threat. When he gets there, he finds that the trolls have enslaved a tribe of orcs that are being held captive. They promise to help him defeat the trolls if he can break their chains, but Tyomar knows that orcs are evil and untrustworthy. What should he do?

Even that was a pretty lame example. Good-aligned clerics who contract lycanthropy or vampirism? Good-aligned wizards seeking the span of ages to perfect their magic facing the spectre of undeath and lichdom? The possibilities are endless for a cruel DM.

Hmm...
I say he should save them. As no one deserves to be enslaved, even at the risk of them turning their backs on him.

What alignment would that answer be?

[Philosoraptor]

Hmm...
I say he should save them. As no one deserves to be enslaved, even at the risk of them turning their backs on him.

What alignment would that answer be?

I would say Neutral Good. However, the paladin would most likely lose his powers for helping evil creatures unless he could prove that he did not know they would continue committing evil acts.

EDIT: If you are interested in a D&D campaign, I would do one provided that everybody who signed up could be relied upon to actually stick with it. D&D requires some work.

[Black .D.]

I would say Neutral Good. However, the paladin would most likely lose his powers for helping evil creatures unless he could prove that he did not know they would continue committing evil acts.
If he lied in doing so, would that make him an unlawful good?

What if he freed them and tried to make the orcs turn good?

[Philosoraptor]

If he lied in doing so, would that make him an unlawful good?

What if he freed them and tried to make the orcs turn good?

Lying is an inherently chaotic act, and doing so knowingly would cause the paladin to lose his powers immediately. If he tried to convert the orcs, their redemption would be a good act, but it is highly unlikely that it would work in the first place.

[Black .D.]

*goes out and buys D&D*
Next scenario.

[Philosoraptor]

Hmm, try this one on for size:

You are hired by the local priest to enter a cave and retreive a holy relic. After finding the relic in the cave and coming out, a group of people approach you and tell you that the Thieves' Guild will pay you handsomely for the artifact. They are offering more than twice what the priest will give you. What would you do?

[Uber Mist Ninja]

This thing id pretty cool. I got "Lawful Good."

Tell them no sale and arrest them, seeing as how they have connections with the thieves they must know where their hideout is.

[Philosoraptor]

Tell them no sale and arrest them, seeing as how they have connections with the thieves they must know where their hideout is.

Highly lawful. Why would you arrest them, though? Because it is the right thing to do or because you want to rob the thieves blind?

[Black .D.]

Highly lawful. Why would you arrest them, though? Because it is the right thing to do or because you want to rob the thieves blind?
Arresting them would prevent them from harming innocents.

[Philosoraptor]

Arresting them would prevent them from harming innocents.

That would be Lawful Good, then.

You learn that a powerful merchant in the area has a revenue stream that is off the books. Eventually, you find out that he is trafficking in slaves (which is illegal in your country). He has powerful friends in the court system, and you suspect that you could not mount a convincing case with evidence against him in a court of law. How do you handle it?

Try to gather as much evidence on him and bring him to court, if the case falls through then I'll storm his shop/base or where ever he hides out and free the slaves there, if he doesn't keep his slaves there I will intimidate him into admitting his crime.

[darksyngr]

Heh, I think you're the only one who has responded to this thread thus far that even knows how these alignments actually play out in the game. Would you say that LG accurately describes you?

Actually... irl it does on the basis that in the game I can't be Lawful Neutral Good, lol.

In game my characters tend to be Chaotic Good or Neutral Good. I try to play evil, but in the end I fail miserably (both irl and gameplay). It only lasts as long as someone is doing something I find unjust or mean. So, yeah LG does pretty much describe me... unfortunately.

Taking him to court is lawful good, after that it becomes pretty chaotic. However, it wouldn't be uncharacteristic of a lawful character to turn to that kind of behavior so long as it was with the intent to bring the merchant to justice.

Hey, there's nothing wrong with Lawful Good. Lawful Awful/Retarded Good paladins give other LG characters a bad name, but they don't all have to be like that. Lawful Good upholds honor, dignity, freedom, honesty, and justice. How is that a bad thing?

And I know what you mean about playing evil characters. Right now I'm in a campaign playing a Lawful Evil priestess of Tiamat (also LE) and it's been hard to keep myself on that alignment :laugh:. I have to sneak out at night when the party is asleep and sacrifice townies.

That's just a very basic look at what a normal attack in D&D looks like (except without the >>).

It really is a fun game, and once you get the hang of the d20 ruleset it's very intuitive and lends itself to diverse roleplaying situations.

I actually laughed myself half to tears when I saw this. You'd be surprised how often things like this actually happen :lmao:.

Well played, Prov. You just forgot about my new magic item: The Dungeon Master's Greater Bag o' Infinite Dice!

nothing tops when a friend of mine got so mad at his dice that he lined them up in front of a microwave and put one in it till it exploded. Then he told us he lined the others up so they could see what happens if they displease him.

Needless to say all of us were rolling on the floor laughing so hard.
