It's a hard concept for people to grasp but 'lawful' good does not mean 'follows the law' it just means that they act with consistency, order, and planning. These are all things batman does.

True Neutral Human Bard (2nd Level)


Ability Scores:
Strength- 14
Dexterity- 15
Constitution- 15
Intelligence- 15
Wisdom- 16
Charisma- 13

Alignment:
True Neutral- A true neutral character does what seems to be a good idea. He doesn't feel strongly one way or the other when it comes to good vs. evil or law vs. chaos. Most true neutral characters exhibit a lack of conviction or bias rather than a commitment to neutrality. Such a character thinks of good as better than evil after all, he would rather have good neighbors and rulers than evil ones. Still, he's not personally committed to upholding good in any abstract or universal way. Some true neutral characters, on the other hand, commit themselves philosophically to neutrality. They see good, evil, law, and chaos as prejudices and dangerous extremes. They advocate the middle way of neutrality as the best, most balanced road in the long run. True neutral is the best alignment you can be because it means you act naturally, without prejudice or compulsion. However, true neutral can be a dangerous alignment because it represents apathy, indifference, and a lack of conviction.

Race:
Humans are the most adaptable of the common races. Short generations and a penchant for migration and conquest have made them physically diverse as well. Humans are often unorthodox in their dress, sporting unusual hairstyles, fanciful clothes, tattoos, and the like.

Class:
Bards- Bards often serve as negotiators, messengers, scouts, and spies. They love to accompany heroes (and villains) to witness heroic (or villainous) deeds firsthand, since a bard who can tell a story from personal experience earns renown among his fellows. A bard casts arcane spells without any advance preparation, much like a sorcerer. Bards also share some specialized skills with rogues, and their knowledge of item lore is nearly unmatched. A high Charisma score allows a bard to cast high-level spells.

batman does not act with order, order implying law. and where do you see the planning of his? he is not a villain, he does not plan; he goes to rescue people, having a disregard towards the bureaucracy that is law while doing so. at the end of the dark knight, batman is running from the police, implying he did something bad. there is certainly no hold towards law for him; you can seen numerous proofs of this in both the comic and the movies.

After this post I will no longer respond to the topic of batman?s alignment because it?s kind of a stupid argument and shame on me for getting into it.

They specifically say in all three versions of players handbooks that I've seen; that lawful does not nessicarrly respect the established order just that your individual actions are ordered. Meaning say, every night you don a costume, go out on a patrol around a similar perimeter. You always react the same to dangerous situations, with say cold indifference.
Lawful in D&D does not mean ?OBEYS THE LAW? it means you act with order, organization, patterns, sensibility, logic. If the lawful in lawful good meant blindly following the law what would a chivalrous hero do when a Tyrannical leader rules the country with an iron fist of law?

Sorry I?ve had this argument with many a Paladin player.
And I leave with a quote of a wise old DM i once knew...
?There are two kinds of paladins, Lawful good and Lawful stupid, I only allow the former.?

I find myself playing either the rogue or the wizard in my 3.5 gaming group. I'm the guy who knows the rules in and out, so I have to play the "difficult" classes.

I'm not to sure how 4.0 may turn out though. I may actually get some variation in what I can play.

I like playing Wizards/Rogues, but I quickly got bored of them, being the skill-monkey or dishing out more damage than the fighter (because rogues and wizards are broken that way)

4.0 Rogues look fun as heck to play though. So I'm a bit torn.

Oh, and that test is entirely too long for me.

You're so mean. Not that I'm planing any kind of revenge, mind.
Last time I answer a questionnaire honestly, methinks.

He's right. Lawful simply implies they follow a guideline, not that that guideline is inherently the law. Hence why lawful evil would be considered diabolic, while chaotic evil is considered daemonic. Daemons being creatures that just randomly inflict evil with no plan, while Devils are careful, planning and often have their own little codes that they won't break.

I was gonna post a bit about the differences between Law and Chaos using the Tanar'ri and Baatezu as an example but the guy above was close enough.

For some reason, I hate playing as any class other than wizard, and depending on the campaign, Red Wizard, specializing in necromancy. I've always prefered mental fortitude over the physical kind even in games, and playing as a two-for-one Fighter doesn't appeal. The necromancy specialization is yet more ego-pandering: among all schools of magic only necromancy infringes on the territory of the gods.

In real life D&D however I always choose to be a Chaotic Neutral Paladin.
CN Paladin? Impossible. Paladins are neither chaotic nor neutral. Can you be a CN Paladin in the new 4th Edition? If so than it is worse then I thought. What a mess WoC have made of D&D. I cried when TSR went down and now I know why. What a damn shame.

Apparently from the test I am a:

True Neutral Human Sorcerer (5th Level)

Ability Scores:
Strength- 17
Dexterity- 14
Constitution- 16
Intelligence- 15
Wisdom- 13
Charisma- 13

Alignment:
True Neutral- A true neutral character does what seems to be a good idea. He doesn't feel strongly one way or the other when it comes to good vs. evil or law vs. chaos.

Race:
Humans are the most adaptable of the common races. Short generations and a penchant for migration and conquest have made them physically diverse as well. Humans are often unorthodox in their dress, sporting unusual hairstyles, fanciful clothes, tattoos, and the like.

Class:
Sorcerers- Sorcerers are arcane spellcasters who manipulate magic energy with imagination and talent rather than studious discipline. They have no books, no mentors, no theories just raw power that they direct at will. Sorcerers know fewer spells than wizards do and acquire them more slowly, but they can cast individual spells more often and have no need to prepare their incantations ahead of time. Also unlike wizards, sorcerers cannot specialize in a school of magic. Since sorcerers gain their powers without undergoing the years of rigorous study that wizards go through, they have more time to learn fighting skills and are proficient with simple weapons. Charisma is very important for sorcerers; the higher their value in this ability, the higher the spell level they can cast.

I feel like a bit of an outcast, not really any other monks, huh? Though the multiclassing with sorcerer was a surprise for me:

Lawful Good Human Monk/Sorcerer (2nd/2nd Level)
2nd Level? How is it that so many people got a higher level than I did?
It's based on age, that's why I've got a 6th level Druid :)

Neutral Good Human Fighter/Sorcerer 2nd/1st Level

Str - 17
Dex - 14
Con - 16
Int - 14
Wis - 15
Chr - 13

Sounds like a pally. Also it says Nuetral good is the best because your actions are mostly viewed as good without bias.

wow, even though you're level 5, your stat allocation is worse off than mine. what's up with that?
I think the test is broken, just my personal opinion. I think it's a little odd, after reading three pages of stats, that people were either dual-classed (not generally recommended in D&D unless it is for the sake of character concept), or made Sorcerers or Wizards. In 8 years of playing D&D, NO ONE I have played with nor myself has ever ran these classes.
Dunno about that, reading the rules means that almost everyone should take Rogue at first level and multiclass later. The feat points you get make up for almost every other downfall, like HP.
I think the test is somewhat slanted to make most people come out as Wizards/Sorcerers. For what reason, beats me.
City/Country. Mages/Rogues excel in Urban environments. Also the Eastern/Western/Wicca Religions will twist you towards Cleric/Paladins.
I know its a quiz and not really a true representation of self, but still, some of this strikes me as strange after having read all of the stats posted. I hadn't read what everyone else got until I took the test myself.
It's basing your physical characteristics on your emotional impressions; and there's a few questions where you can answer truthfully without properly answering the question truly asked.

Jack Thompson is Lawful Neutral...So's Bill Gates. They're using legal methods to 'improve' the community rather than themselves.

Eh, fine. In most of my D&D games I'd be playing as a True Neutral druid or as a Chaotic Good sorcerer anyway. More interesting than the whole "Obeying the law" malarky that the Paladins are always harping on about.
