All The Tropes Wiki Project, Part XIII
RE: All The Tropes Wiki Project, Part XIII
The character alignment thing can die; all the same information is on the Character Alignment page. Honestly, the alignment pages are pretty bad because they're mostly Square Peg Round Trope for people trying to describe characters with broad strokes. For instance, the Wolkenritter are listed on both the Chaotic Good and Lawful Good pages. But couldn't you also make the case that they were willing to kill anyone to help the owner of the book, making them Lawful Evil?

It really only has meaning in the context of game-like settings, like you could make a case for Slayers or Fate/stay night. But V in V for Vendetta and Rock in Black Lagoon are CG? The whole point of those stories is moral ambiguity. I like D&D and all, but these tropes feel like Complete Monster all over again.
