What alignment would you associate with each class

[Arkhios]

They are slowly working on it. After all sneak attack was originally 'back-stab'...

And Rogue was originally Thief. Not very good for PR either, I'd say. :P

To borrow an old rodent allusion, "Rangers are just Rogues with good PR."

But for me:

On the Side of Order: Artificer, Paladin, Wizard
On the Side of Chaos: Barbarian, Sorcerer, Warlock
On the Side of Balance: Druid, Monk, Ranger
On the Side of Not Giving A Damn About Cosmology: Bard, Fighter, Rogue

...With Clerics beholden to their deity's alignment.

(This really makes me want to set up some sort of Warrior, Caster, Expert x Order, Balance, Chaos system.)

The Thief of Baghdad was a movie. The Thief was a good guy / protagnoist.
AD&D2e bowdlerized the thief (who previously had to be any non good alignment, by rule) into Rogue ... I'll get off of my soapbox now.

Sure, but the stigma of "a thief" in general is still quite vivid.

I mean... the word thief and 'taking things which are not yours' kind of go together.

Now, I don't know what plane you come from, but in the Material Plane, taking things that don't belong to you is entirely normal behaviour.
