inveraritySpringing off of a comment on an earlier post, I had this extremely nerdy idea a while ago, so why not?
Way back in the day, I played Advanced Dungeons & Dragons. Yes, yes, it's true. I even had the original blue box basic D&D set.
By high school I had left AD&D behind and have never really looked back (for many years I was more of a Champions and GURPS grognard), but let's face it, everyone who has ever played a roleplaying game, even if they sniff disdainfully at AD&D, is familiar with the tropes pioneered by that game.
So, for anyone nerdy enough to be familiar with them, here's an AD&D alignment poll for my AQ characters. (Here is a summary of alignments if you need a refresher/guide.)
We're going by the original AD&D alignment chart.
Blink Dogs. Seriously.
Or if you prefer one of a bajillion images online mapping various fictional characters to alignments:
It took me a while to find one I agreed with. Also, The Wire is fucking awesome.
So, without entering into an extensive debate on the validity/utility of AD&D alignments (I had those debates so many times in high school...), consider this "just for fun."
I will let the poll run for a while, and then eventually post my own Absolutely Correct and Inarguable Word of God interpretations. :P
I'm not including all the minor characters because it's a pain — LJ requires I manually enter the fields for every single character. But feel free to speculate in the comments if you like.
