I mean, I didn't think an action like killing one's enemies would forbid one from remaining lawful good, I just thought that meant they couldn't be corrupted and tempted to join the dark side. Chaotic good would be more self-serving in intent even if they opposed evil, but weren't generally geared toward doing good for others if they didn't otherwise need to. So I guess my definition would be, lawful good is like Captain America, whereas chaotic good would be more like a mercenary who won't work for anyone who wants to hire them to be purposefully harmful to others. Lawful evil would be like Rumplestiltskin, who not only makes it their mission to do wicked things but delights in it, while chaotic evil would be a mercenary who has no ethical qualms about working for the bad guys and wouldn't hesitate to screw over a 'good' employer if the opportunity for a better payoff presented itself, but doesn't go around causing trouble just for the hell of it.<br/><br/>That's just my take on it.<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>For Lawful good... here is an example...<br/><br/>Say there was a really clever serial murderer roaming the lands, really good at covering his tracks and really good at getting himself out of being dealt with by authorities... and Snow White knows he's the murderer, knows it without a shadow of doubt... but she can't prove it. Lawful good would demand she allow him to stand trial and abide by the decision made... which means he'd do what he always does and get off free as a bird.<br/><br/>Whereas for Neutral good, Snow White would be able to take matters into her own hands and ensure he can never hurt anyone else again.<br/><br/>See? :)
