Content	Creation Iarwain That would be #Chaos#, wild uncoordinated useless pathetic self-defeating, the Enemy. And #Good#, prosocial helping others, self-sacrifice, also useless and pathetic and self-defeating, the Enemy. These are #alignments#, by the way. Souls have them. Gods have them. The sparkly-best alignment is Lawful Evil! Incidentally, staring at all these meanings with boosted WIS 24, noticeably above dath ilani average, is liable to have Merrin noticing that there is a certain amount of hollowness and mandatory-belief about them. The connotation of Lawful Evil is not so much 'this is the best alignment, anyone would be proud to have it' but 'this is the alignment one is required to think is best; be proud to think the correct thoughts about it'.
