(BATTLE CRIES, MOTTOS, ETC.) CORE CONCEPTS: DUTY, FAIRNESS, HONOR, PROPERTY, RESPONSIBILITY,
RIGHT, TRUTH, VIRTUE, WORTHINESS

A lawful good character believes in honor. A code or faith that she has
unshakable belief in likely guides her. She would rather die than betray
that faith, and the most extreme followers of this alignment are willing
(sometimes even happy) to become martyrs.
A lawful good character at the extreme end of the lawful-chaotic
spectrum can seem pitiless. She may become obsessive about
delivering justice, thinking nothing of dedicating herself to chasing a
PROFICIENCIES wicked dragon across the world or pursuing a devil into Hell. She can
LANGUAGES come across as a taskmaster, bent upon her aims without swerving, and
may see others who are less committed as weak. Though she may seem
austere, even harsh, she is always consistent, working from her doctrine
SKILL PROFICIENCIES
or faith. Hers is a world of order, and she obeys superiors and finds it
almost impossible to believe there's any bad in them. She may be more
TOOL PROFICIENCIES easily duped by such imposters, but in the end she will see justice is
doneby her own hand if necessary.

My soul is good, but free. Laws have no conscience. Blind order

CATCHPHRASES someone in troubleit may be you who needs kindness the next day.
(BATTLE CRIES, MOTTOS, ETC.) CORE CONCEPTS: BENEVOLENCE, CHARITY, FREEDOM, JOY, KINDNESS,
MERCY, WARMTH

A chaotic good character cherishes freedom and the right to make her
own way. She might have her own ethics and philosophy, but is not
rigidly held by them. She may try to do good each day, perhaps being
kind to a stranger or giving money to those less fortunate, but does so
purely out of joy. Such a character makes up her own mind up about
what is good and right based upon truth and facts, but does not fool
herself that evil acts are good. Her goodness is benevolentperhaps
PROFICIENCIES occasionally blind, but always well meant.
A chaotic good character can seem unpredictable, giving alms to an

Order begets order. My word is my bond. Chaos will destroy the world.

CORE CONCEPTS: HARMONY, LOYALTY, ORDER, ORGANIZATION, RANK,

RULE, SYSTEM, TRADITION, WORD

A lawful neutral character admires order and tradition, or seeks to live

by a code. He might fear chaos and disorder, and perhaps have good
reason to do so from past experience. A lawful neutral person is not as
concerned about who rules him so much as how secure he and his
PROFICIENCIES compatriots are, and finds great solace in the normality of society. Such
LANGUAGES a character may admire the strongest of leaders and punishments if
they keep order, and he may support wars against other nations even if
SKILL PROFICIENCIES his own country is a brutal invaderhis only concern is the rightness
of the military action.
TOOL PROFICIENCIES A lawful neutral character who follows his own code never breaks it
willingly, and may become a martyr to defend it.

The wheel turns in spite of us. Systems come and go. All empires fade.

(BATTLE CRIES, MOTTOS, ETC.) it rises over.

CORE CONCEPTS: BALANCE, CYCLES, EQUALITY, HARMONY, IMPARTIALITY,

INEVITABILITY, NATURE, SEASONS

A neutral character is unusual in that she may have one of two distinct
philosophies: she may be a person who is neutral because of distrust or
apathy toward others, or one who wishes to have a truly neutral stance
in the world and rejects extremism.
A neutral character could seem selfish or disinterested. She might be
PROFICIENCIES driven primarily by an acceptance of fate, and the most extreme
LANGUAGES followers of this alignment become hermits, hiding from the zealots of
the world. Some neutral characters, however, strive openly for
neutrality, and shun any act that veers too extremely toward any
SKILL PROFICIENCIES
alignment. This type of neutral character prides herself on navigating
her way between law and chaos, evil and good. She may have a
TOOL PROFICIENCIES fatalistic view in the face of nature and the fundamental power of night
and day.

A rolling stone gathers no moss. There is only today. Be like the wind

CORE CONCEPTS: CAPRICIOUSNESS, FATE, FREEDOM, INDIVIDUALITY,

PROFICIENCIES A chaotic neutral character values his own freedom and ability to make
LANGUAGES choices. He avoids authority and does not fear standing out or
appearing different. In extreme cases, he may embrace a lifestyle
SKILL PROFICIENCIES entirely suited to himselfliving in a cave near a city, becoming an

(BATTLE CRIES, MOTTOS, ETC.)
CORE CONCEPTS: CALCULATION, DISCIPLINE, MALEVOLENCE, MIGHT,
PUNISHMENT, RATIONALITY, SUBJUGATION, TERROR

A lawful evil character goes about her business motivated by her own
interests, but knows that ultimately order protects her. She seeks to
achieve her own endsbut through order, not chaos. Even when
boiling with anger, she is more likely to carefully plot vengeance than
risk her own death through hasty actions. Sometimes that revenge will
take years to happen, and that is acceptable.
A lawful evil character at the extreme end of the spectrum is zealous
PROFICIENCIES in her aims and will make any sacrifice to achieve them. Her twisted
LANGUAGES
philosophy can make her paranoid of her closest followers, even family
and friends. She stops at nothing to gain control, for only through
SKILL PROFICIENCIES control can she have peace. Yet even the most powerful and ordered
society has its enemies, and to a lawful evil character only the
TOOL PROFICIENCIES destruction of those enemies can bring fulfillment.
Order is everything, at any cost.

CATCHPHRASES NEUTRAL EVIL

(BATTLE CRIES, MOTTOS, ETC.)
I am the most important thing in creation. Do what you want, but
never get caught. Conscience is for angels. Evil for evil's sake. Vice is its
own reward. The sinner enjoys his life. Evil is just a word. Others envy
my freedom and life without conscience.

CORE CONCEPTS: DESIRE, IMMORALITY, NEED, SELFISHNESS, SIN, VICE,

VICIOUSNESS, VILENESS, WICKEDNESS

Motivated by his own needs and wants, a neutral evil character is

without conscience, acting only for self-gratification. He might
surround himself with the trappings of cults and evil, but does so
PROFICIENCIES purely because it brings him closer to sin and wickedness. While a
LANGUAGES lawful evil person is inclined to bargain and a chaotic evil one to lash
out, a neutral evil person is inclined only to look out for himself. In
SKILL PROFICIENCIES many ways, he epitomizes evil, since he has no clear loyalty to anything
except absolute self-interest.
TOOL PROFICIENCIES An extremist neutral evil character tends to be a loner, since he has
either betrayed or slain those who came close to knowing him.

CORE CONCEPTS: ANARCHY, ANGER, AMORALITY, BRUTALITY, CHAOS,

A chaotic evil character is driven entirely by her own anger and needs.
She is thoughtless in her actions and acts on whims, regardless of the

In many ways, a chaotic evil character is pinned down by her inherent
