What's your Alignment (http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/dnd/20001222b)

The true D'n'D test!

Mine:

Lawful Evil

A lawful evil villain methodically takes what he wants within the limits of his code of conduct without regard to whom it hurts. He cares about tradition, loyalty, and order, but not about freedom, dignity, or life. He plays by the rules, but without mercy or compassion. He is comfortable in a hierarchy and would like to rule, but he is willing to serve. He condemns others not according to their actions but according to race, religion, homeland, or social rank. He is loath to break laws or promises. This reluctance is partly because of his nature and partly because he depends on order to protect himself from those who oppose him on moral grounds. Some lawful evil villains have particular taboos, such as not killing in cold blood (but having underlings do it) or not letting children come to harm (if it can be helped). They imagine that these compunctions put them above unprincipled villains. The scheming baron who expands his power and exploits his people is lawful evil. Some lawful evil people and creatures are committed to evil with a zeal like that of a crusader committed to good. Beyond being willing to hurt others for their own ends, they take pleasure in spreading evil as an end unto itself. They may also see doing evil as part of a duty to an evil deity or master. Lawful evil is sometimes called "diabolical" because devils are the epitome of lawful evil. Lawful evil is the most dangerous alignment because it represents methodical, intentional, and frequently successful evil.

Heh, these things can be pretty entertaining at times. The only problem i have with this particular test is the line of questioning related to if you should commit a crime. I kept looking for the "Run away!" option, but it refused to give me one.. :shame:

Ah well!

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.

Im too nice

Btw, how do you add a spoiler?

[pevergreen]

Bah, thats the first 4 people to answer/that ive asked and they are all the same.

True, there is only 9 alignments and the evil 3 ones are off limits to Players in D'n'D, but that didnt stop me. :laugh4:

Neutral

A neutral character does what seems to be a good idea. He 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, he would rather have good neighbors and rulers than evil ones. Still, he’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.

[Togakure]

NG here. Guess I am in my good persona today. My alignment vacillates between NG and NC.

Meh, I don't think the questions effectively assess alignment. I was a DM back in the late 70s and early 80s, made real money doing it. You'd need more questions, better questions, and more options in the answers to do a proper job of it. The survey is still fun I guess.

Players can't be evil?? Since when? I guess things have changes radically since I played. Heh, in 25 years ... yeah, probably so.

[pevergreen]

Well, the general rules (before ruleset 4) was that only enemies got the evil line. Makes it more fun if you have a lawful evil rogue in a party with a Lawful Good paladin. :laugh4:

Oh indeed, especially as alignments were concealed unless players chose to reveal them. Some of the BEST entertainment for me as DM was what they did to each other. D&D brings out the absolute worst in people, lol. We had to keep guys from pummeling each other on more than a few occasions.

[Kekvit Irae]

Personally? I often switch personalities between Lawful Evil, Lawful Neutral, and Neutral Good. I'm weird like that.

[FactionHeir]

I think last time I took that test (a few years back) I got NG.

In game, I usually play LN or NG. In rare cases also LG and NE. Don't like Chaotic much.

[CountArach]

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.
Oh yeah!

But seriously - why do I always get the authoritarian ones...?

[Gregoshi]

But seriously - why do I always get the authoritarian ones...?
Because you like discipline? :whip:

:eyebrows:

[Ironside]

Seems that I keep my personally up. :book:

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.

Oddly enough I'm closer to chaotic good than chaotic neutral though

[Martok]

Another Neutral Good here, which is hardly a surprise. I could've predicted that would be the result before I even took the test. ~:)


I nearly always play characters that are on the "Good" scale somewhere, although I've played a True Neutral character as well. Still have to play a Paladin, however....

[Kekvit Irae]

Because you like discipline? :whip:

:eyebrows:

Yes, please. :gring:

[Kralizec]

Lawful neutral here.

[Lemur]

I guess there's a reason I usually play the Pally.

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.

Meh

[shlin28]

Lawful Neutral

But I always play as evil wizards in NWN or BG :wall:

Chaotic Neutral


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.

[seireikhaan]

Neutral.

[Big_John]

all you neutral schlubs disgust me! who wants to ride the john train? giddy up!

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 hates 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.

Mouz, we are on the same page! Chaotic Neutral here.

Your Character’s Alignment

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

[TevashSzat]

Wow....I'm technically the "baddest" guy here atm with NE.

[drone]

Mouz, we are on the same page! Chaotic Neutral here.

How the **** does a devoted socialist come up with Chaotic Neutral?!? :inquisitive: Your position in Backroom arguments are seriously degraded with this result, expect this to be used against you in future discussions. ~D

I went through the choices trying to get Chaotic Good (my choice character alignment) but was unsuccessful. What was the secret, Big_John?

[Big_John]

What was the secret, Big_John?
try to be more awesome.

[Martok]

try to be more awesome.
LOL!! :laugh4: :laugh4: :laugh4:

[yesdachi]

Neutral Good

Although if I were playing a game of D&D I would choose an aberrant evil type. :evil:

[Meneldil]

I thought I would be ending up as some Lawful Good whiny idiot, but no, I'm actually neutral.

Not that bad I guess.

[Evil_Maniac From Mars]

Neutral, and I'm completely unsurprised. I try do what's best for my country, friends, and family. Nothing else is really my business.

And I would elaborate, but this isn't the Backroom. :book:

[Whacker]

Lawful good. Interesting, I usually am dead square as a neutral good type.

[Rob The Bastard]

Neutral

[AggonyDuck]

Strangely enough I ended up as Lawful Good. Usually NG has been more of my alignment of choice, so a bit surprised over this sudden goody-two-shoeness.

[Samurai Waki]

NG. No surprise really.

[Vladimir]

Wow, Lemur and I on the same page! Has anyone who plays the games noticed that as you get older, even if you’re not older, your alignment tends to shift? I must admit I can do a pretty good Chaotic Evil. However with the newer games I’m getting away from the corruptible paladin to a Chaotic Good stealthy, fighting rogue. Maybe the hack and slash just got old or it was the cheesy LG dialogue included in the tame.

Any thoughts?
