Where do you fall on the DnD alignment chart?

586 sats \ 31 comments \ @Aardvark 2 Apr AskSN

In DnD context good and evil actually mean how much you value the party over yourself. Whereas lawful and chaotic ans lawful represent how much of a personal code of conduct you have, not how well you follow the law.

So personally, as i tend to put others before myself, I'd say I'm good, and even though I don't walk around breaking laws, I don't really hold myself to strict moral code either. I'm more of a case by case basis type of person. I belive there's a lot of grey area in most things, making me chaotic.

So Chaotic Good for me.

AI post analysis says I'm Chaotic Neutral but I'm actually Lawful Neutral because I follow my own constitution which I don't advertise.

Yep, I interpreted them as how organized I am.

Fellow Chaotic Good represent!

Oh, man. By those standards, I'm Lawful Good.

My party is just my immediate family (wife, kid, dog), though. In any other context, I'm Lawful Evil.

Yea DnD standards are way differnt. Lots of anarchists would be considered Lawful in this context.

42 sats \ 1 reply \ @Undisciplined 2 Apr

At least I can be Evil, in most contexts.

Nobody believes it but I'm right in tne middle.

I believe it, it's not too far fetched given the actual meaning of the chart.

21 sats \ 4 replies \ @Coinsreporter 2 Apr

Thanks. I know you can believe it. I'm just concerned about my surroundings. It's hard to find a true neutral in a country where people judge you by your name/caste/religion/place/language and many other things.

If I say I don't give a damn to any of these, others will only refute it.

Our surroundings almost never match what we internally wish to be true.

I only want and I believe in humanity first so I just don't give a damn to local surroundings. Live and let live is the core to it.

I didn't know this is one of the forces acting on Indian culture and it sounds awful.

0 sats \ 0 replies \ @Coinsreporter 2 Apr

It's not a part/force of Indian culture. Indian culture is much higher and broader and doesn't cherish /encourage any of such discriminatory social models.

It's the colonialism, politics and the constitution of (free) India that created these gaps in society.

In Vedic culture (which is Indian Culture), the society was divided in four (Varnpratha) by their work, not by their birth.

But when India was colonialised, this system to was deliberately broken to divide and rule.

India got freedom in 1947, but this again wasn't addressed because of politics of vote. Some castes were given reservation for 10 years initially but the reservation in jobs and subsidies still going on and is given 50% to scheduled castes and tribes for they are still regarded as deprived and poor; which they all had never been, nor they all are now.

The reservation did give them jobs but by marking them as deprived, poor and oppressed made them judgemental about themselves and other castes and tribes.

TBH noone is trying to address it for and when anyone tries, there can be horrific results. Half a billion people will be fighting another half a billion on streets.

Chaotic Neutral

I'm not sure if I like their new alignment standards. Robin Hood is the quintessential Chaotic Good character, but it seems like if he follows his own personal code of conduct he'd be considered Lawful Good under the new standards.

IMO Lawful/Chaotic should be less about personal code of conduct, and more about how well your personal code of conduct aligns with your society's code of conduct.

That being said... whether I'm good or evil depends on what the "party" refers to. If it's my family, I'm good. If it's my neighborhood, city, or country, then I'm neutral or even evil.

I like to think of myself as Neutral Good. When I play D&D games I usually gravitates towards those types of characters.

Neutral good feels like a Malcolm Reynolds type, which is also my favorite.
