I thought I should make a post explaining why I add a moral alignment to every character I write for! 

This way of describing characters came about in a 1977 version of the Dungeons & Dragons handbook by Gary Gygax. The alignment system was based on the fantasy stories of Michael Moorcock and Poul Anderson.

It was a way for players to decide how their characters would think and act in the game. And I’ve now integrated it as a part of how I see characters and their motives. 

Here’s a few alignment tests if you’d like to find out for yourself! 

(P.s each test has different questions so one might not give you the same answer as the other. Quite like the Hogwarts House quizzes). 

Comment down below or reblog with your result!

Have you done Bruno’s (Encanto) big three?

Hi there, sweetie! I really hope you like this a lot!

Bruno Madrigal's MBTI Type, Big Three, Enneagram Type and Moral Alignment

MBTI Type: INFJ [The Advocate]

Introverted INFJs exhaust quickly around people and recharge by spending time by themselves.

They tend to overlook small details and instead focus on the entire perspective. They love to see how everything connects together.

Advocates prioritize their emotions. They tend to base decisions on what they feel is right rather than what might be logically sound, making them very empathetic.

They are also very structured and organized. INFJs like to plan ahead and follow processes and schedules.

Big Three: Cancer Sun, Virgo Moon and Pisces Rising

Cancer Sun: Ruled by the Moon, Cancers are emotionally mature, intuitive, sensitive, and artistic. They are guided by their tender, loving, and protective hearts.

Virgo Moon: Virgo Moons use their calm nature to gain deep clarity on matters, filtering questions through their kind, but reasonable, lens.

Pisces Rising: The Pisces ascendant commits fully to their beliefs, and has an active imagination.

Enneagram Type: 6w5 [The Guardian]

Basic Fear: Sixes with five wings are afraid of losing their guidance and stability. This is often expressed through their skepticism of the world.

Basic Desire: They have a strong desire for security, which they tend to show by protecting themselves and others. They seek close and stable relationships.

Guardians tend to defend themselves by projecting their own feelings onto others, which can often enhance their distrust of the world.

Moral Alignment: Neutral Good [The Benevolent]

These characters seek to do good, but are flexible in how they achieve it, valuing both order and freedom.

[corpusdiem-seizethedead]

Mayer: *motioning to Jack, Race, Mush, Blink, and Crutchie standing in the doorway to their tenement* Are those friends of yours, David?

Davey: Kind of? Not really. They’re in my life and there’s nothing I can do about it

[heroes-villains-side-blog]

Found my notes for when I was trying to make sense of alignments

No, you don't need to box your character into a single alignment, and yes, they're silly

But it's always nice to just have a starting point. Like, "you need to know the rules first so you can know how to break them" type of thing (that's paraphrased writing advice I've come across and really love)

Without further ado, H / V = Hero or Villain respectively, but they're just stereotypical hero or villain here. Please feel free to break the norm and mess around :)

LG, H "I do the right thing coz it's the right thing to do"

LN, HV "I'm just following the rules." could be good or bad rules

LE, V "I'm evil but I have a code / standards."

NG, HV "Good =/= Law." sometimes you might have to break the law to do good

TN, V "Eh. I do what I want, but calmly."

NE, V "I'm evil how I want to be."

CG, HV "I'm trying to do good, sometimes it has costs. Or sometimes I go over what's socially acceptable and seem silly but am appreciated."

CN, V "I have fun doing what I want."

CE, V "I enjoy destruction."

Neutral Good

Virgo Sun, Cancer Moon, Aries Rising

A gifted healer from Fenharrow, Yrene is the descendant of a long line of healer women as they are blessed by the goddess of healing, Silba. When the Adarlan soldiers came to take both Yrene and her mother, the kind woman had killed a soldier and distracted the others so Yrene could escape. Yrene had watched her mother die and hated Adarlan and its soldiers from that day on.

One night as she was working in an Innish tavern, she met Celaena Sardothien, and the assassin taught her how to defend herself. As she left in the morning, the hidden princess left enough money for Yrene to go to the Torre Cesme and become a healer. Celaena left a note as well and Yrene kept that note until she was reunited with the assassin, now Queen, Aelin.

In her years at the Cesme, she became the Heir Apparent of the Healer on High. However, a wounded Chaol Westfall and Captain of the Guard, Nesryn Faliq, had arrived in Antica. Yrene was sent to work on Chaol, although she was adamant of her dislike towards Adarlan soldiers, their relationship went from enemies to lovers by the end of Chaol's stay.

With her ties to the royals and healers in Antica, Yrene and Chaol were able to sail back to the northern continent. The khaganate army (with the heir, Sartaq who had fallen in love with Nesryn) as well as an army of Ruk riders, followed as well, committing themselves to the aid of Queen Aelin.

During the war she was constantly using her powers to heal, treat, aid and improve. She was also using them to rid the 'valg' soldiers and change them into humans again. However, whenever she was drained, her husband - Chaol, was as well.

She had healed his back injury in Antica, but a secret plot by the Valg brought his injuries back to the same as before. Yrene was able to treat Chaol, but she had to entwine her life with his. When she is weak, so is Chaol.

When they arrived in the north, Yrene found out she was pregnant, and didn't tell anybody. But being around healers meant they noticed the changes in her and her body.

So when it came time to kill the very evil of this world, she did so, pregnant and exhausted, she obliterated Erawan.

In your opinion, what is the difference between neutral good and chaotic good? I promise I'm not asking in bad faith, I'm trying to discern which is best for my character, and I've seen enough of your blog (and a few other's) to value your take.

I notice you don’t ask about lawful good, meaning you probably feel you have a good grasp of it, maybe something along the lines of “Doing the right thing AND wanting to follow the rules.”  I bring up LG, because I think it’s helpful when understanding chaotic neutral.  In my opinion, I see the “Lawful” and “Chaotic” ends of the spectrum both being very concerned about The Rules (TM) of society, social norms, etc.  But whereas an LG person has affection and loyalty for rules, Chaotics look at the rules with suspicion and disdain.  LG would look at the rules as a means of accomplishing Good, but CGs look at them as a potential hindrance to accomplishing Good.

But neutrals?  They just don’t care.  They don’t care about the rules.  Maybe the rules are useful.  Maybe the rules are needlessly difficult.  Neutral just doesn’t care.  They aren’t interested in worrying about the overarching system of governance, they just want to get Good done.

That’s my take on it, anyways.
