>I'm Lawful good, but to the evil emperor so its ok for me to do evil
>I'm Lawful neutral, so I do whatever people tell me to no matter what
>I'm Lawful evil, so my first law is that I don't have to follow laws
>I don't actually have any negative experiences with neutral good players
>I'm True Neutral, so I don't care about anything
>I'm Neutral evil, so I am going to actually act chaotic evil
>I'm Chaotic good, so I am going to murder somebody who is being slightly rude
>I'm Chaotic neutral, I'm going to burn down the orphanage but offset it by taking care of my pet cat so I'm not really evil, just crazy
>I'm Chaotic evil but I'm actually going to be playing as neutral evil because I don't want people to think I'm being too evil
