Title: Your Real Life Alignment
Post by: Shane for Wax on January 03, 2013, 04:19:34 am
Mine: Chaotic Good

The test (http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/dnd/20001222b)

For extra fun, look up your alignment (http://easydamus.com/alignment.html) and see how much of the description fits you.

For example, this is what fits me (as I see it) :

Honorable Traits-
Allowing a disarmed enemy to pick up his weapon
Picking up the funeral expenses of someone you slew in combat
Saving the life of another at great risk to own self
Taking an arrow or hit for someone else
Taking prisoners

Dishonorable traits-
Accused of crime by good or neutral authorities (innocent or not)
Being taken prisoner
Convicted of a crime by good or neutral authorities
Delivering death blow to a helpless opponent
Desecrating an enemy's corpse
Falsely claiming the 'bragging rights' that belong to another or outright lying
Killing a host who has provided you food or shelter
Treason
Unjustly slaying a prisoner or unarmed opponent who has yielded

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.

True Neutral (most likely leaning towards lawful good). No surprises there.

I've never put much stock with online quizzes, but here's mine:

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.


Shepard, I like the second link as well.  Plenty of info that makes the system less trouble, because I can remember plenty of times when D&D lawyers would throw this out and flog it to death.

Neutral evil

What a shite test

I don't know about its being a shite test, that's what I got, too.

I do think it's not really applicable to settings other than those in a typical D&D game, though.

Unsuprisingly, that is what I usually play in a rpg.

Well that or neutral evil.

Chaotic Good. I'd say I lean over into True Good and Chaotic Neutral quite a bit though.

Chaotic Neutral.

Funny, because the last time I took this test, I got the other end of Law vs. Chaos.

Anyway:

The following actions are honorable for this alignment:

Dirty Fighting

Fleeing a battle that's obviously going poorly

Gloating over a victory

Perpetrate humiliating prank on enemy

Refusing a fair contest/challenge

Taunting an enemy into fighting

Walking away from a challenge

The following actions are dishonorable for this alignment:

Allowing a disarmed enemy to pick up his weapon

Allowing the enemy to attack first

Being taken prisoner

Killing a host who has provided you food or shelter

Refusing medical treatment for the good of the party

Surrendering

Treason

I... kind of sound like a dick.

True 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 neutral characters exhibit 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.

I'm more of the "lack of conviction" persuasion rather than "commitment to neutrality"

Do you rely on the government to enforce contracts and property rights?

But I don't want to the government to enforce property rights.
