What's your character's alignment?
Based on the DnD definition:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alignment_%28role-playing_games%29
Just curious.

Morgan's Neutral Good. I considered Chaotic Good, but he's too much of a meritocrat to be truly chaotic (and also not quite brave enough).

Even the Dungeons and Dragons alignment system recognizes a certain degree of alignment. Meaning that most people will tend to fall somewhere between the nine alignments of the system.
In Danomels case, I would have to call him neutral. However, he does have some lawful and good tendencies and probably waffles in those directions to some degree, but at this point in his life, not enough to push him out of the neutral box .

Callara started out as somewhat of a neutral good character, coming in all innocent, but with a slight twist in her past, which got bent during her stay in Roque. Now, she's becoming more and more evil and I fully intend her to become the equivalent of the stereotype "Demonically evil sorceress in tower waging war on the mindless heroes below".
Will take some time to get her to that point fully, but considering the way things are looking now, it won't be to long
Such fun...

Just a bit of fun .
I agree with Danomel that it's not so easy to classify. One thing I find interesting is that dichotomy between the way characters think and the way they act. If they were ever asked to describe their 'alignment' in such terms, mine would probably say they were "Chaotic Neutral" (Claire), "Neutral Good" (H'saan) and "Lawful Good" (Turelie) but in actuality I think only H'saan behaves in the way he thinks he does.

I would guess Vanir is more Chaotic Neutral, although he might claim that he is more Chaotic good. No doubt that he is very, very chaotic.

Aerin is DEFINITELY CN - tried her as different alignments in different games and she always returns to CN eventually. She can be good or evil, but sometimes one may be disguised as the other - thus the neutrality of it.
Aster, on the other hand, is more along the lines of Neutral-Good and a nice balance to Aerin. He is the Boy Scout to my Brownie-Gone-Bad.

Rosalie is none of these things. She's herself.

Seriously, I think we all know that alignment is a misleading, cack-handed, two-dimensional approximation to morality. But it's fun nonetheless.
The Order of the Stick is great for poking fun at the alignment system in a gentle way, if anyone's interested...

To no one's surprise, Seb qualifies as Lawful Good. However, his upcoming personal issues over the planned marriage of Cerise to Leonius might shake his foundations a little, as his emotions conflict with intellectual morals.
We shall see...

Reinhard is a thief who would rob a one-legged, one-eyed, mentally ill 100 year old woman living in poverty to buy himself a mug of ale.
I'll go with Neutral Evil.

I have to say, looking at the results so far, we have a fairly well rounded community full of all sorts of characters. Not overflooded with demonic baddies or uber paladins. I'd place Ash as neutral. Mostly, she's out for herself & watching her own skin, but she has no problem working with groups and helping out those around her (she is an adventurer after all) though, most of that is overall for her own gain. Meh.

S'sinith is True Neutral. He leans to Neutral Good, until you piss him off, then he's Chaotic Neutral. He just hasn't had much of a need to get pissed and extract his darkside.

Hmm, neutral good for Craghley. He knows that a competent organisation is more effective than a bunch of loose cannons, but also knows when following the letter of the law will only be self-defeating. As for being good-aligned, well, I guess I'm just a nancy boy at heart, as I always chicken out of playing evil(ish) characters.

Started out of Lawful Neutral. Meant to be that, but got sidetracked with time. He is much more chaotic now, but very driven. I would say he is Chaotic Good now, though his own definition of Good is not always the same as other people's.
