What does playing a "lawful good" character mean to you? If you have specific examples, that's even better! (This is research for an article I'm writing so you may be quoted, with your consent!) #DnD5e pic.twitter.com/F83w748Pjz

Ned Stark seems to fit. Good person. Stuck to his promises and oaths, even when it meant a lot of pain. Ned executing terrified deserters doesn't quite tally with LG to me, more LN. A LG ruler would arguably choose a different punishment.

I think LG people are capable of mistakes. Ned made a lot. But he still stood up for what was right over the law at times. I’m trying not to get spoilery, but his ultimate arch I think is one of good with law guiding it.

I do see the LN argument too. Alignment is hard. It’s interesting when D&D gets into pure alignment creatures like modrons, devils, angels, etc.

I would love to see a new design for morality/alignment. It might hard to get away from, since Planescape has so much alignment-related lore (and as a result the greater cosmology of D&D). I really liked in d20 Modern how you picked three things that mattered to your character. (e.g. Good, Law, Billy Joel)
