    I bet you'd like to know.

    Heh. Well, it's accurate, but I think one or two people could have done that themselves. Then again, it was boredom induced. ;D

    And, this is a reference of...

    78% of DM's started their first campaign in a tavern.
    If you're one of the 22% that didn't, copy and paste this into your signature.

    I finally remembered this account after two years. If I begin to get nostalgic, just snap me out of it. Don't worry, I don't expect you to remember me.

    My curiousity is satisfied.

    That link is missing an "h" at the front, Artisan.

    Wasn't Blackadder (all of them, really) more Neutral Evil?

And I say this from a GM POV.

    O[Oh noes! Alignment argument!]

    I would argue no - in the end, they weren't out to hurt anyone in particular, they were merely out for number 1, baby

    The various Blackadders did have distinct personalities. I'd say I and III were Neutral Evil (one was trying to murder his own family members to acquire power, and the other tried to swindle his employer and, when the situation turned sour, beat up an elderly woman to recoup his losses), while II and IV (who were motivated by social ambition and survival instincts, respectively) were probably Chaotic Neutral.

    As for the modern Lord Blackadder from Back and Forth... well, the dynasty's trademark ruthlessness and lust for power have sort of deteriorated over the centuries. He even rewards Baldrick for his help. I'm thinking Lawful Neutral.

    I'd say Blackadder I is Lawful Evil, II is Lawful Neutral, III is Chaotic Evil, and VI is Lawful Neutral.
