This week's poll from residentgrigo is about Dungeons & Dragons alignments. Feel free to interpret what "preferred" means in whatever context you like. I actually play 5e once a week, so this poll hits close to home. For the uninitiated, D&D is the first modern role-playing game, helping spawn a new genre of tabletop games and video games. If you want a written definition of what each choice means, read this wiki article. If you want some examples from movies, see this image chart. There's no labels on the axis, but it goes
  • Up: Good
  • Down: Evil
  • Left: Lawful
  • Right: Chaotic
  • Middle: Neutral

I disagree with some of the movie examples, but it's better than nothing...

You can submit poll ideas here (and try to keep them manga/anime-related)

If I had to guess, more people prefer longer hair. Pain to wash though...

I am chaotic neutral, as neither good nor lawful apply at all. My charts gives me Jack Sparrow. I am please but his sequels can get lost. The placement of Vader under lawful and Codename V under good or chaotic is a bit... hm. Pictures still help. Here are more.

I go with neutral good in videogame RPGs (you kinda have too), as that lawful version is a bit unplayable.

I enjoy playing chaotic neutral characters with low intelligence and wisdom. Think Patrick Star from Spongebob or Billy from "The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy" and you have a general idea of what it is like with me in the party. laugh

I'll bet we get a lot of Chaotic Stupid voters picking Chaotic Neutral because they think it means doing whatever they like.

I think I'll pick Neutral Good for this one, it's a great alignment for making intelligent heroes who are able to consider the consequences of their actions.

I think Chaotic Neutral have changed since i used to play
(ADnD1and2ed)
coz Joker from batman would fit
maybe
these days i think its just another version of true neutral

i tried to play one but when i had to spend hours of game time trying to get the DM to understand why i would murder someone just becouse i needed their home to sleep since i did not see the point in paying for an inn ASO ASO
then my overflowig instincts made the rest of the group angry
so more discussion about why we have someone that irresponsible and dangerous in the "team"
and when every action needed explenation no1 had any fun so i just stopped
after that we never did use the chaotic neutral again

btw
since i usualy play druids
and in most dnd and other rpgs they are some form of neutral
i go with TRUE NEUTRAL

Doing whatever you feel like is Chaotic Evil.
