LotFP goes with this interpretation, too, even going so far as to state that every human that's ever lived is Neutral.<br /><br />And that's why I prefer the nine-fold system (especially when delineated by snazzy macros); more room for alignment as personal moral code, which is how I prefer to look at it.<br /><br />(Oh, and as for alignment tongues: I've never used 'em, but I've thought about it. I'd have each tongue be a "church language" [Latin, Old Slavonic, etc.] of the leading Lawful/Neutral/Chaotic god.)<br /><br />Swank new layout, by the way!David Larkinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04133630988557116729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4832866431918588129.post-85839955449957790442011-12-15T22:33:31.190-05:002011-12-15T22:33:31.190-05:00Well, thinking about it, I don't like Tweedle-...Well, thinking about it, I don't like Tweedle-Dee and Tweedle-Dum as LG.
