Quiz thing

Another personality quiz thing. This one's from Dungeons & Dragons, and tells you whether you're Chaotic, Neutral or Lawful (how much you believe in following the rule of law) and Good, Neutral or Evil (pretty self-explanitory.)

I got

Neutral Good

Neutral Good people are practical romantics. Which might sound like a contradiction in terms, and maybe it is. They don't care though. They know the world doesn't always make sense, and that you can't put all your faith in cut-&-dried definitions. A Neutral Good person generally takes the moderate position. Both security (order) and liberty (chaos) can be good things, but one isn't necessarily better than another. In some situations the law brings the most benefit, in other cases personal freedom is more desirable. It's all relative. Order and chaos are just theoretical constructs. They are means to an end, not ends in themselves. The greater good is just that : whatever brings the greatest amount of actual good to the world. People get too hung up on definitions. Many people believe "good" has a single concrete meaning, and anyone that disagrees with their interpretation is the bad guy. Good people fight each other over different shades of meaning, never understanding that the other guy is not all that different from them. Neutral Good seeks to avoid this, knowing that a real understanding of the world is only achieved by respecting human life, keeping an open mind, and seeking Truth in all things. In the words of Socrates, "There is only one good -- knowledge. And one evil -- ignorance."

Apparently George Orwell is Neutral Good, lol.

Chaotic Good
13 chaos, -8 evil and 8 balance

Chaotic Good people are free spirits. They play by their own rules and live life in whatever way best suits them. They resent being told what to do, and will break any laws they don't agree with. However, they still have a social conscience and genuinely care about their fellow man. They might be criminals, but not the kinds of criminals that callously hurt other people. A Chaotic Good might use illegal drugs and believe that other consenting adults should be allowed to use such drugs ... however, they wouldn't sell dangerous narcotics to school children, or shoot someone to get drug money. Likewise, they might engage in promiscuous sex and have loose morals, but they would never coerce anyone into anything non-consensual. Chaotic Good has a profound respect for the rights of the individual, believing that everyone should have the freedom to be what they want to be, regardless of laws, traditions, social conventions, or anything else. Chaotic Good people tend to be radical thinkers that challenge the status quo. They are often humanists, and seek to make the world a better place for humanity in general. Guided more by their hearts than their heads, they optimistically (and perhaps naively) believe that "peace will guide the planets and love will rule the stars."

Lawful Good. (Not very surprising)
-12 chaos, -11 evil and 7 balance!

Lawful Good people are holier-than-thou do gooders. I'd like to put it more politely, but that pretty much sums them up. This is the most pompous, and at the same time the most clueless, of all alignments -- in fact gamers often amusingly refer to this alignment as "Lawful Stupid." People of this alignment are blindly idealistic and do not see the world as it is, only as it should be. They are basically good people at heart, but they have very narrow views of what the term "good" implies. For them, law & order is the cornerstone of good. They take a dim view of all criminals, even the ones that commit victimless crimes (they believe that no crime is victimless). Lawful Good people are obedient to authority, never rock the boat, and always color inside the lines. They conform to society's standards and they're upstanding and responsible citizens. Because they are very society-minded, they also tend to be political, although particular affiliation may vary. A patriotic republican standing up for God and his country ... a charitable democrat defending the rights of the underpriviledged ... a moderate trying to make things fair for everyone ... any of these people might be Lawful Good, because each has a rather one-sided idea of how society should be governed. Different Lawful Good groups are often opponents, because each has different definitions of right and wrong, and each believes their way is the right way. Lawful Good is not a specific philosophy so much as a way of life, a disciplined obedience to whatever group you're a part of and a conscious effort to make others follow the same rules you follow -- whether you're a minister preaching a sermon, a cop arresting criminals, a psychologist treating "personality disorders," or even just a regular working stiff who thinks everyone should pull their own weight. Whatever you are, you have a solid set of morals and you believe in playing by the rules.

True Neutral (with slight tendencies toward another alignment)

2 chaos, 5 evil and 9 balance

"The reason you didn't actually score the alignment in question is because you only TEND toward that alignment ... you agree with some aspects of that alignment, and disagree with other aspects of it"

so my score isnt in the chart.

it also says im more evil than 91% of quiz takers.

AcionMan! said...

No not true. True Neutral is still a valid result; it just means you don't feel strongly to any one point.

AcionMan! said...

Hah Alex, your Chaos score determines where you're Chaotic or Lawful, and your Evil score determines where you're Good or Evil. Balance makes you neutral.
