Hello horrific abominations, tis me Nollaf once more. Now...today I shall talk about ethics/morals to some degree. Well, what I am really talking about is the D&D Alignment Test. Yes, this test classifies you in one of the 9 categories of D&D Ethics and Morals. There is Lawful Good (like Superman, Aerith from FFVII and Abraham Lincoln), Neutral Good (like Frodo, Gandalf and Cloud from FFVII), Chaotic Good (like my Dad, Tifa Lockheart from FFVII and Captain Krik), Lawful Neutral ( Cops, me in my earlier years), True Neutral ( Spock, Batman and Canada), Chaotic Neutral (stupid people who act on instinct or animals...that and Switzerland), Lawful Evil ( awesome people like Darth Vader and Dr. Evil), Neutral Evil (Sauron, The Witch King) and Chaotic Evil (Sephiroth from FFVII, Voldemort, Cthulhu, Hastur any classic villain).
Guess which one I am? Yes, Nollaf is: Lawful Evil! Yes, a power hungry, evil, sadistic, dictator! I am the cool, bad-ass kind of evil like Maifa Bosses and Sith Lords! WOOT! Haha, and pepole say that I'm not evil...the little patheic fools >:) . For a deeper description of my alignment, read this.
A lawful evil [person] methodically takes what he wants within the limits of his code of conduct without regard for 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 is willing to serve. He is loath to break promises, and is therefore very cautious about giving his word unless a bargain is clearly in his favour.
This reluctance comes partly from 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 feel these personal morals put them above unprincipled villains.

I think you're Chaotic Good (because you don't hurt anyone and would care if you did.) not to blow your rep or anything.
ReplyDeleteGREAT blog, you made me LOL.
How about a link to the quiz so other people can take it?!
Eh, depends on the person. Often times people have two layers with their alignment, one is hard and cold, the one underneath is soft and nice. Sometimes, in my case there's a third layer underneath that is a mirror image of the first, like pie. My evilness is most true and noticeable on the description on the bottom of the post.
ReplyDeleteI think neutral gets a bad rap, in that it's seen as a bit of zero - being neither good nor evil, lawful nor chaotic.
ReplyDeleteIn reality the measurement of man is not so one dimensional. One can be both chaotic AND lawful, in different aspects, and in different contexts. Neutral (as a balanced middle position) can thus be a richer and more complex position than the extremes, including them both, as appropriate.
Similarly, you might not be entirely good, but that does not mean you are necessarily evil. Morality is a hugely complex and ultimately unknowable attribute that cannot simply be assigned a point on a line.
Touche', I myself am a moral nihilist so this thing is just more fun than anything else. I do not believe that good or evil really exist and are just ideas that we came up with to explain moral and metaphysical ideas which we don't understand in the first place. When it comes down to it, good and evil are nothing more than points of view.
ReplyDeleteAfterall, this whole system was manly used to classify the nature of various fictional creatures and charaters in an RPG so to apply in the world is nothing more than recreational topic.
