Being Chaotic neutral, I can pretty much get away with anything, good or evil, depending on my mood.

And how much drink you had, I presume.

Can someone explaine why Chaotic Neutrals are supposed to be mad? I think the alignment system would make more sense (but still not much) If they were consistant...

Bloodstalker · Post by **Bloodstalker** » Thu Aug 01, 2002 4:57 pm

@Dottie....Because

I don't think of it as mad, just notional, doing whatever hits their mind at any time, certainly chaotic, and nuetral in there chaos as they can take either side according to their mood.

But wouldnt it make more sense to interpret it as
Neutral, Isnt egoistic enough to be evil but isnt Altrusitic enough to be good and
Chaotic, Oposing authorities.

Well hello, I don't believe we have meet before.

Do you really think my dream can come true?

I don't think so. I think of it as Neutral meaning not leaning one way or the other, and chaotic as not having order.

But, my initials are BS, so what does that tell ya?

So Evil means your behaviour is evil, and good means your behaviour is good, but neutral doesnt mean your behaviour is neutral but that its both good and evil? That is not the description of it on the explanation of neutral itself, nor do I think its the explanation on lawful or true neutral.

Not both, niether good or evil. in the middle. As such, your actions could be evil or good, depending upon circumstances and the views of those who see those action.

Wich sounds as both to me, neither would be your actions is never good or evil but somewhere between the two.

True, but neutral as I see it is in the middle of a range between good and evil. Any action you make, will be interpreted by those who observe your action. Your actions would have to be viewed by someone elses perceptions as good or evil. You yourself aren't really doing good or evil as you would define it.You may do something one day that someone considers evil, and the next pull an opposite.You see good and evil, but balance in between.

Dottisweet, whereas I appreciate that you exercise your brain cell by trying to analyze things, I do think that the incredibly stupid and limited alignment system in AD&D is not a meaningful target for such intellectual activites.

And this is not true for the other alignments as well? The Evil persons really go around claiming to be evil?

But i will stop.
