See us Lawful Evil folks (wait, I mean Neutral, yeah, that’s the ticket!), use the law to our own advantage. See, we LIKE the law, when it suits our needs. If it doesn’t, we find a dammed loophole :D. ---

Chaotic Evil, which really surprised me. I guess my lack of scruples when it comes to screwing people I don’t like kinda got in the way and stuff… ---

As a person, I’m neutral good, I normally game Chaotic Good. Silentgoldfish----where on inktank did you get yours? I love/hate that site, Thanks for posting it! ---

Neutral. It’s because I’d rather look after my family and friends than beggers that I’m not good, right? 🙂 Or maybe it’s apathy… ---

**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. ---

Neutral Good. What a surprise… I like playing Chaotic Neutral characters best though… 😉 ---

I am Lawful Good, although I always used to play Neutral Good, I guess I am getting more stuffy and conservative as I grow older!! 🙂 Grim ---

NG in real life, but when I have to choose an alignment in game (my primary DM doesn’t require it), I chose CG. ---

True Neutral here…talk about a fence-sitter! And here I always thought that I was just willing to see the broader picture of situations. Hmmmmm…could be very lucrative, if opposing sides are desperate for support. Can anyone say “Bribes”? …I knew you could… ---

Couldn’t get the alignment test to work either, but I’ve always gone with Neutral Good. ---

Pure Neutral for me, it seems. I would have thought “Lawful Neutral” or "Lawful Evil,’ but I’m just plain Neutral. Bow down before me…or not. Whatever. Ranchoth (“My mind says ‘perhaps,’ but my gut instinct tells me…‘maybe.’”) ---

Lawful Good. Which pretty much sums up both my in-game and RL feelings… I’ve tried playing evil-aligned characters, but my heart just wasn’t in it. ---
