this is really awesome, never seen anything like this and love how this relates to the traditional alignment but is it’s own separate thing!
If there was an axis, what would it be here??
Seems like it's good/evil up to down, law/chaos left to right, but working to ditch the baggage of the terms. I like it.
I am favorable to selfish vs selfless for evil vs good
It’s pretty standard thing in systems other than dnd, called “drives” or “motivation”. There are plenty of them, not only nine. And there’s no need for axis, and no need for names like “path or some shit” too.
dnd has what you're talking about? Personality Traits, Ideals, Bonds, and Flaws.
Interesting, thanks for sharing. As for an axis, I like aligning things on a spectrum and thinking about how decisions take you down different spectrums.
I understand that’s just a label but understanding the relationship between the motivations is an interesting part of character development to me
Can you give some examples? I’m curious.
Alternatively, "I got halfway through making a meme and decided I didn't want to argue with people over the pictures I selected for each option." XD
...This is just the alignment grid with the names changed.
Shhhhhhh
I like this alternative alignment idea too! I feel like Path of Liberty suits me out of all these. As that would be a character archetype which appeals most in roleplaying situations.
