Alignment Mockeries
You know how people often use terms for Dungeons and Dragons alignments that are not exactly "official"? And are more of a joke really?
A few examples I have rolling around in my head are:
Lawful Stupid, Neutral Boring, Neutral Indifferent, Adorable Evil,
Chaotic Annoying, and Lawful Stick-Up-Your-Arse.
Do you, my fellow playgrounders, have any more alignment mockeries that you find entertaining? If so, please post them in this threadShow mercy, and you will be shown mercy.

Re: Alignment Mockeries
Well, Stupid is entire alignment axis isn't it?
Stupid Good
Stupid Evil
Lawful Stupid
Chaotic Stupid
Though I guess for some reason there's no Stupid Neutral or Neutral Stupid.

Re: Alignment Mockeries
Actually, there is:
http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.ph.../StupidNeutral
The Mr Welch list has a couple of interesting alignment mentions:
651. My alignment is not Sarcastic Good.
742. Apparently Chaotic Angry and Neutral Hungry aren't real alignments either.Last edited by hamishspence; 2013-07-24 at 12:42 PM.

My favorite is chaotic hungry.

Re: Alignment Mockeries
One guy in my last campaign was 'Psychotic Neutral'.

Re: Alignment Mockeries
I've also heard Chaotic Insane and Suicidally Evil. There is also Pacifist Good, which isn't always a bright idea.

Re: Alignment Mockeries
Animals are usually Neutral Hungry. A lot of adventurers I met are Neutral Greedy.

Re: Alignment Mockeries
I had a character I described as Lawful Noble. (This allowed him to fight the church's power.)
Wolves are Neutral Hungry.
I have occasionally run an NPC the characters wanted to do business with as Neutral Bored.
I ran a Champions character as Silver Age Lawful Good, which is very different from Modern Age LG.
I've considered running a character who is Chaotic Curious.
But whatever people put on the character sheet, there are only 3 PC alignments: Lawful Snotty, Neutral Greedy, and Chaotic Backstabbing.

Re: Alignment Mockeries
I have had characters end up Sarcastic Good more often than not.

Re: Alignment Mockeries
Somebody said, and it's confirmed by my experience, there are only three aligments amongst the PCs - lawful snotty, neutral greedy and chaotic backstabbing.

Ron Edwards's Elfs with Anal, Genital and Oral. Especially funny when you realize what Freud has to say about Anal and Oral personalities.

Re: Alignment Mockeries
I've seen versions of "Frightened" used on both axes.
I've also seen "Chaotic tendencies" as a modifier on any alignment.
And finally this is a touch off-topic but I think it's close enough that readers of this thread might enjoy it-- I have a character with the following on his sheet:
born with the Paladin's FIGHT EVIL class feature (despite the lack of Paladin levels)

Re: Alignment Mockeries
Lawful good: warden good (you can do this this and this. Do this, I hit you 200 times.)
Nuetral good: Nuetral hypocrisy (I'd love to help these beggars, but if I do I can't buy a +2 sword)
Chaotic good: ignorant good (I want to free them! Anarchy! No order! Let the people live without your benevolent tyranny,_____[Nuetral good king])"Are we living a life that is safe from harm? Of course not, we never are. But that's not the right question. The question is: are we living a life that is worth the harm?"

Re: Alignment Mockeries
Lawful German.
Pollyanna Good.
Neutral Butler.
EDIT: Oh, and in addition to their other more descriptive actual alignment, quite a few paladins and monks are Lawful Supposedly.Last edited by Dimers; 2013-07-24 at 10:23 PM.

Re: Alignment Mockeries
I heard there's a clerical curse 'missed his nap' which modifies the target's alignment to 'chaotic grumpy'.

Re: Alignment Mockeries
The three my group uses often are~
Chaotic Nutty (players that constantly come up with bad ideas)
Chaotic Butter (players that constantly enact said bad ideas)
Toast (players that died from said bad idea, usually by fire)
