Alice Grove MCDT - May 2015
BenRG:
If the Praeses turn out to be villain-like, I would suggest that the are in a 'Lawful Evil' form. They are determined to do the right thing by the majority, even if that means treating individuals, their dreams and their wants like paper dolls to be thrown into the fire. When you've protected and effectively ruled the entire human race (apart from the primitives in The Habitat) for millennia, naturally you become a bit... callous.
Neko_Ali:
Callous is a good word to describe Alice, actually. She protects the people of the town. But she's not nice in doing it and takes what she sees as the quickest and most effective route to it. If some people get hurt feelings along the way, what does she care?
Method of Madness:
Is lawful inherently better than neutral or chaotic? Or is it really just the evil/neutral/good that's used to determine how good a person is?

Good-Neutral-Evil is the ethical spectrum - the attitude the character has to life and the rights of the individual.
Lawful-Neutral-Chaotic is the societal spectrum - the attitude the character has to order and organisation
Some extreme examples:
* Emperor Palpatine - Lawful Evil
* The Joker - Chaotic Evil
* The Mask - Chaotic Neutral
* Mr Freeze - Neutral Evil
* The Spectre - Lawful Good
* Plastic Man - Chaotic Good
* The Batman - Lawful Neutral
Method of Madness:
Well yeah, but my question is this. Is being lawful evil somehow "better" than being chaotic evil? Also wait, how is Batman not good?
