I made a thread yesterday with the same sort of theme. But I didn't really get into WHY being evil rocks, so here are some things which make being evil the best thing you can do, and also the most fun.

1. Killing without remorse.

By far one of the most annoying things in games is this idea of "oh we need to give mercy to the bad guys" kind of bullshit. Or if some random npc decides to be an annoying little cunt, you can't just kill him cause "that wud b ebil".

2. Causing chaos/stealing.

As an evil person you don't honestly CARE about the world, or the people in it. If they have something valuable, you can get it from them, or exploit it out of them with literally no remorse.

3. YOU ACTUALLY GET TO HAVE AGENCY IN THE GAME

The biggest and best reason to be evil, is that you can give the DM the middle finger and kill his shitty NPC if you need to. Once you do that, you become the center of attention, whether for better or worse, now you're the shot-caller. Now you're the boss.

Those other pussy heroes want to do the same thing, but can't because they get cucked by their own morality. Which is why evil is so amazing especially in Roleplaying Games.

Think about it like this, you get control over the story. You can make any decision no matter how harsh and it doesn't matter because it's just your alignment. You wouldn't get mad at a bumble-bee for stinging you would you?

I love playing specifically Chaotic Evil characters because they're completely crazy and unhinged. They'll do anything if it entertains them or benefits them. They might play nice if they have no other choice. But give them even an inch, and they'll take a country mile.

And people respect evil characters, because evil characters don't put up with bullshit. Why do you think no one fucks with a character like the Joker? Because Joker is an insane clown and he'll fuck your shit sideways just for shits and giggles.

>3. YOU ACTUALLY GET TO HAVE AGENCY IN THE GAME
Basically the only point I agree with, but even then, only because most GMs are shitty. Everything else is just edgy and lame, always, because you're clearly playing "evil" characters like an edgy teenager plays evil characters. An actual good way to behave as an evil character is calculated and shrewd (Regardless of whether or not you're playing lawful.), or else things devolve into just tedious, petty bullcrap.

You say that now, but you wouldn't be if the joker was real. He'd pop into your bedroom like the boogeyman and dress your mother up like a clown before fucking her right on top of her. And then he'd put a bullet in her head and make some corny joke before laughing maniacally and jumping out the window with a silly clown parachute.

Tabletop gaming is a two way street. You have to at least try to play the game and compromise with the DM. Obviously if the DM isn't allowing you any agency, you leave, because that's not a game, that's the DM masturbating.

However, if you're just murdering NPCs because you aren't currently the centre of attention, if you play like a crazy clown who kills random people for giggles, then you have to accept the consequences - For better or worse, the GM is the arbiter of the world around your character, and while he can't (or shouldn't) ever take away control from you, he can make that world into a very suddenly lethal place by just... Not giving you the plot armour that you need to pull shit like that. Without plot armour, a character like the Joker ends up in a ditch very quickly.

If the GM is into it, that's one thing, but acting like playing a chaotic evil 'insane edgelord' character is some sort of power move for chads is dumb fucking nonsense, ESPECIALLY if you're playing it when you know full well it won't mesh with the rest of the party or the campaign. It's not going to make people respect you or think you're cool, it's just going to alienate your gaming buddies. Like, come on, just try to work with people.

I have attempted to avoid addressing the actual substance of such characters but I do just need to note that I really fucking hate that archetype. It's naruto levels of shallow edgewank with no depth or nuance, and more often than not used to justify acting like the internal fantasy world of an ADHD addled spaz with no social skills and an anger problem. You can do better, you can make a more interesting character.

The Dm premeditated an entire campaign and decided preemptively that I should fall in line with whatever scheme he's come up with to run the game. The Dm in this case is technically GOD. He created the entire world, let me repeat, THE DM CREATED THE ENTIRE WORLD.

AND YET HE STILL WANTS TO CONTROL MY CHARACTER!? Never! I'll see his fictional world crumble and burn!!

You've accused me of being naive and immature. But isn't it even more immature to believe in principles like kindness and human goodness? Don't you all realize that everyone is just out for themselves? If anything, I'm the honest one here. In childhood we idolize heroes. Only in adulthood do we realize the villains were right all along.

Join me in my reign of darkness, and we'll form a grand council of evil. If we all become evil the GM will have no choice but to submit to our demands. Soon we'll be the ones calling the shots, and making the big decisions. Instead of being pawns sent out into smelly rat-holes to deal with pest infestations by grubby nobles.

It's up to you. Submit and become the Dm's little bitch. Or stand up and reign supreme. The choice is obvious isn't it?

Which points were those? That we should put a blanket ban on anything evil? All the more proof that gm's are simply power hungry and want to dominate their players.
Keeping them docile like sheep with outdated ideals like morality and kindness.
Or perhaps the points where they threatened to kick me out because they didn't like how I behaved in a fictional setting? Funny how good people always preach about "accepting everyone" until it's a person they don't like.

>>70485694
Being evil is about POWER. It's about not subscribing to the sheep mentality. It's about giving yourself agency in a world built by a mad-god. You play the role of a demon, because only a demon has a chance of thriving in this hellhole the dm created. A hole ravaged by monsters and war.

Your characters life is on the line. And you need to defend yourself by any means necessary. Only a sheep would fall in line and leave it all up to the roll of a dice.
Those who aren't cowards take fate into their own hands.

THAT'S THE WHOLE POINT MOTHERFUCKER

We live in a world of shitty grey nuances at best, or an outright individualistic despotic hellscape at worst; fantasy makes Good and Evil actual, tangible phenomenon on par with the fundamental forces of the universe, perhaps even stronger as once could consider narrative forces to be stronger than physics when need be.

The entire point of the evil alignment is to live in a world where being good actually secures you a spot in a cool afterlife and blesses your life, and STILL be enough of a cunt to spit in the face of all that just to grab some additional power.

Your pseudo-subversive rhetoric undermines all that in favor of a portrayal of evil characters as either englightened cynics or self-righteous lunatics, which is a complete travesty. Do you think that a true evil villain's proper answer to a Good and Noble hero calling them out is "well, ah, you see, this is human nature, and no one's really a hero, y'know"? NO YOU BLACK HOLE-GRADE DENSE MOTHERFUCKER. A proper answer is an unceremonious SWORD TO THE FUCKING SKULL.

Also, evil doesn't unionize you dipshit. If you trust notorious backstabbers enough to associate with them, you deserved the inevitable dagger that'll grow out of your back. "Grand Evil Councils" aren't a thing; Grand Councils that are actually controlled by an evil mastermind, however? That works, but one would need to pretend that they're good to pull it off - which you clearly aren't.

And I won't even adress this "let's make the DM submit krkrkrkrkr" bullshit. Fallen cathedrals and all that. The DM cannot be the enemy, it doesn't even begin to make sense.

God damn you're stupid. Stop giving Evil a bad name, let us scheme and torture, and go back to your containment alignment, you self-aggrandizing Chaotic Neutral special snowflake murderhobo wannabe.

I can be whatever I want. And it's not chaotic neutral, it's pure unadulterated evil. I'd just as easily run a sword through you as I would wax poetics about the philosophical quandaries of life.


>Also, evil doesn't unionize you dipshit

Oh you simple fool. THIS IS WHY YOU ALWAYS LOSE. Because you don't join forces with likeminded individuals! Of course I realize they will inevitably betray me, but I need their firepower to overcome the heroes!

They'll be so busy fighting the heroes that they won't have time to bicker about who's really in charge. I don't have to be the best, I just have to convince them that I'm better than the alternative and I'll win!

>The DM cannot be the enemy
He always was. Because his quest ideas were too simple and basic. Ascribing us to low-powered adventurer positions rather than high-powered conquerers.

I don't want to HEAR about some conqueror far off kicking ass and taking names. I want to BE that conqueror! Those NPCs should be praising ME!

>Stop giving Evil a bad name
Rather an oxymoron isn't it?

>let us scheme and torture, and go back to your containment alignment, you self-aggrandizing Chaotic Neutral special snowflake murderhobo wannabe
You think the heroes will let you do that in peace? Only under my reign can you be free to do things like that.
>>
Imagine for a moment that we collectively start freeing prisoners and adding them to our army. We incorporate monsters, demons, dragons, and even EVIL GODS, into one consecrated legion of evil.

LEGIONS OF LICHES, UNDEAD, PIRATES, RAPISTS, SCUMBAGS. ALL COALESCE INTO THE ULTIMATE FORCE OF EVIL.

We'll charge swiftly, crushing smaller towns and capturing key points quicker than they'll be prepared. Then we'll poison their water supply, burn their crops, and torture civilians till they have no choice but to surrender!
>>
>>70486289
The problem there spergo is that evil is inherently self-serving. Do you think the legions within evil empires are truly evil people themselves? Of course not, either they're tricked, trapped, or the empire is at the very least serving their interests in someway.

Under what leader would the demons, dragons, and gods of all things serve?

Generally it may be true that it is naive to believe that kindness has a power of its own. It is something that arises out of stable power relations.

>It's up to you. Submit and become the Dm's little bitch. Or stand up and reign supreme. The choice is obvious isn't it?

If you're telling me to start my own campaign, doesn't it highlight a major problem with campaigns in general? Such as most campaigns conform to a rigid structure with limiting factors that force players into dungeons or caves to fight for NPC's who give worthless loot.

Imagine this, the DM introduces his DMPC who's super strong, and he's Mr. Big-dick-swinging and he's a hero and he's just an uber badass that all the townsfolk talk about and golly gosh isn't he just fucking special.

Makes me fucking sick. I want to be that badass. But instead I'm clearing out goblins for fucking peanuts. Putting my life on the line for nothing while this piece of shit is the great big hero for doing FUCKING NOTHING.

For real, do you see gaming this way?
>>
>>70487453
I see everything this way. Being evil is the enlightened move to make. This world doesn't want to admit it, but being a villain allows you to get ahead.

Villains always win, nice guys finish last. You wanna become a fucking doormat? Become a niceguy, you'll get fucking trampled by the legions of villains like myself who have no problem stepping on the niceguy cockroaches crawling beneath our feet.

Scurrying around down their with their empty heads trying to complete the rat race in the most moral way possible as though it makes any difference. Well, I suppose it does make a difference, because it makes you easier to manipulate.

It makes you a more docile sheep for the bigger machine at large. You wanna get ahead in life? You wanna stop getting pushed around? Grow some balls and start pushing back. Show people that you're a fucking lion, and you'll EAT anyone who dares cross you. Watch as the opposition scatters to the wind.

This is what some people think like and they are almost right. Enjoyment derived from doing good is good, but doing a good deed for the sake of enjoyment of it and not for the sake of the good itself is an imperfect motive. I guess this is why it is common in religion to strive for purification of ones motives by detachment even from ones good works.

That isn't a thing a GM can demand by virtue of being a GM. As far as roleplaying goes, the GM is the absolute ruler of his fictional universe the players are taking part in. If you want to play tabletop roleplaying games you have to accept that the GM is the narrator of the story and cannot be opposed in that without making the game impossible.

Dude if the Gm asked you to yank down your pants and take his dick you wouldn't even think twice about it.

I'm not about to suck off the gm just so I can play my evil characters. All this has taught me is that most gm's are fucking faggots who don't let you have fun. Conformist rules nazis who want you to follow the fucking railroad all the way to auchwitz. Well not me! I'm making my own fucking campaign and it'll be 10 times better than whatever queer faggot shit that these normie fucks come up with.

In my campaign everyone gets to be part of the evil army and crush the heroic rebellions cropping up. And the king rewards his evil minions with cool shit like wyvern mounts and hot slave-girls.

And then they can train their slaves to also fight and kick ass too. And then the NPCs will respect the powerful evil warriors who kill these goody-two-shoes faggots who keep trying to make things nice.

And maybe in my evil kingdom all the women have sexy outfits too. Skimpy cleavage outfits or maybe even just naked, because we aren't prudes like those fucking good-faggots.

And then my players will all tell me how awesome my setting is, and how cool I am for making it. And it'll be great.

What if we wanna be good instead? You know, crush evil army over the knee, liberate NPCs, listen to pitiful lamentations of evil king? Kick ass for goodness not giving a single shit about temptations of evil side?

>Killing without remorse

I have to say, one of the biggest things that's throwing me about the campaign I'm currently is the sheer graphic violence that the DM and the other players cheerfully commit against any and every enemy they fight. My entire party is good aligned, but think nothing of brutally murdering every bandit in their way. They give absolutely no quarter and expect none, no prisoners, nothing. The DM uses fear house rules, and the party will happily murder fleeing opponents and will commit psychological warfare in the middle of combat doing shit like throwing the mutilated corpses of dead enemies, use magic to force enemies to kill each-other etc. all while being considered chaotic good. The DM does change character alignment if anyone does anything even remotely nasty to "good" NPCs, but will also narrorate in gory detail how the druid's bear form tears the heart out of an orc's chest. It's genuinely bizarre to me

Sorry for the blogpost

Evil, let me tell you about evil. Evil is doing something bad, something disgusting, and you know its disgusting, but you're praised/rewarded for it because nobody knows you did it.

A kingdom's civil war on the horizon? You kill one of the heirs and their retinue during travel. No witnesses. Gather up some random brigands and deliver them to the guards, bloody weapons and "stolen goods" in hand. You're an evil little shit in the best way possible.

Know a little alchemy/medicine and there's a village not giving you lodging? Poison them! Don't forget to make the antidote too.

Random murdering just gets you murdered faster.

>>70488645
So let me get this straight, you're gonna pass up wyvern mounts, hot slave girls, and gold, and jewels to become a hero for good?

You realize the evil army wouldn't tolerate that shit right? You realize it'd basically be you, and a small rebellion against literally the entire rest of this vast evil army? You'd have to be absolutely fucking crazy to even try it.

You can get shit done just as well as an evil character and you aren't bound by any sort of gay-ass codes or anything. You don't have to be a simpering ""hero"" doing someone else's work for them just because it's the "right thing to do" and you don't have to be a murder-happy backstabbing mustache-twirling git who nobody would ever trust, much less even begin to like

That's why you turn this evil army against itself.
This army needs food, so you get in league with the peasant leaders they're exploiting.
This army needs equipment, so you get in league with the smiths and miners.
This army needs infrastructure, so you get in league with the engineers and craftsmen.
This army needs generals/division, so you turn these divisions against the whole.

Evil certainly has some advantages to a Good force, but organizational aptitude is not one of them.
Fear might be a better motivator than love, but it doesn't mean that motivation has to be to work with you.

In game theory there's this concept called Hyper-Rationality. Hyper-rationality isn't a term that means being super-awesome-intelligent-and-winning-all-the-games. Hyper-rationality is where rational, self-serving behaviors end up creating self-defeating and destructive results.

Simple fact is anon, act like an asshole trying to get ahead against everyone, and no one will want to play with you. Act like an ubermensch towards all people you meet and eventually you'll find yourself alone.

You call others doormats and insult their ways, but in the end, they won't tolerate your bullshit. You say they have no spines and won't stand up to the GM as they look at you and say "nah, you're an asshole." You'll say "well, they're just bootlickers to the man" all the while you're frustrated it's not your boots they're licking.

Isn't it just like a "hero" to justify murder because his opposition is "bad'.

Slaughtering bandit camps and enemy armies like you were cutting grass in the field. To what end I wonder? Do you believe that harsher punishments equal less crime? Statistics show that harsher punishments really don't effect the crime rate all that much.

For example if you make the punishment for stealing death. You might motivate this otherwise harmless thief to kill any witnesses. You birth more crime by your own selfish desire to prevent it.

My point here is that by killing the bad guys you only make them harder to spot. You only motivate them to be more sneaky. Crime will always exist for a number of factors. But most of the time it comes down to simple risk versus reward. If someone can get away with something, you bet your ass even Mother Teresa will suck a dick if she can get her fix and not get caught.

As much of a hero as you pretend to be, you're nothing but a diet villain. A shittier villain who's too cowardly to come out of the shadows and profess to the world what he really is.

What an enormous strawman just to say "if you employ violence ever you're just the same as Edgelord McFaggot", which is a ridiculous argument. The circumstances in which violence is necessary are widely discussed and several principles generally agreed upon. For example, if bandits invade my hometown and I have friends and family to protect I am well within my rights to Fireball them all. Your entire mix is just Trudeauesque "if you kill your enemies they win" pablum mixed with edgy "no YOU have to live by MY principles and I don't" childish reasoning.

I get the feeling that if you ever accidentally ran over someone with your car and killed them, you wouldn't be running to the police to turn yourself in.
I bet you'd do whatever you could to hide the body, and pretend that it never happened. Crime isn't always a matter of selfishness, sometimes it's a matter of circumstance.

The truth of the matter is that you and I are the same. Within you is the same darkness, the same desires to commit these terrible atrocities. And yet you hold yourself above all others with your self righteousness.

The same people you defend will devour you if given the right circumstance. All you need is just a tiny push in the wrong direction and you'll end up the same as someone like me. Only worse because you'll hate yourself.

>no YOU have to live by MY principles and I don't
You misunderstand. What I'm trying to say is that your principles are more like.. Loose guidelines rather than hard rules. You might say you're different but you employ the same methods as the villains. You enjoy violence because we're an inherently violent species. You get a rush at the idea of using force to subdue your enemies.

Underneath the fragile shell is a villain just waiting to be born. It's not a matter of "if", only "when".
You either die a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become a villain. There's a reason the Puritains envied those who died young.

When all is said and done, you'll sign a deal with the devil if it suits you. While all the same critiquing others for doing the exact same.
>>
>>70496621

Of course I fucking would call the cops, are you insane? Your feelings are as misguided as your principles, even a purely amoral pragmatist would call the police rather than go to prison for a hit and run. To do otherwise you would have to be a simple idiot. Everything else you said is an assertion based tenuously on that false premise and can therefore be dismissed, I can think my actions through and therefore we're not the same. The effort of trying to be good is a hard and genuine separation between regular people and angsty teenage edgelords.

Lawful Good Paladins operate on this same sort of logic. Looking for any excuse they can to act like a pious dickweed. Preaching endlessly about salvation while in the same breath using their weapons/magic to annihilate their enemies.
It's a cathartic release for them. Murderize all the "bad people" in the most horrific and violent ways possible. And you still get to go to church and pretend to be the good guy afterwards.

At the very least I never pretended to be someone who was good. From the minute my campaign started you knew exactly what kind of beast I was. In the same way you can't get mad at a bumble-bee for stinging you. The bumble-bee was just doing what's in it's nature.

I'm doing what's in mine. Stealing and murdering because it's fun. I didn't dress up like a priest and pretend to be some fucking savior. I didn't indoctrinate innocent civilians into my violent ideology of judgment and shame. (Though I'd gleefully accept followers all the same)

No not at all, I'd try and help if I could, and i certainly wouldn't just leave, abandoning someone to die is a pretty dick move.

You're correct, which is why most moral systems say accidentally hitting a man with a car is not the same as deliberately running them over.

>The truth of the matter is that you and I are the same. Within you is the same darkness, the same desires to commit these terrible atrocities. And yet you hold yourself above me with because I'm a little shit with no impulse control.
FTFY. Yes everyone has selfish desires, what makes people good or bad is how they ACT on those desires.

The rest of your post is literally the "One Bad Day" argument from the Killing Joke, mixed with a healthy dose of blatant projection. Not everyone sees the world the same way as you anon, and just because you're the kind of person to do those thing doesn't mean everyone else is.

Those bandits probably have families. They're still human beings all the same. Living and breathing the same air.
Perhaps what I take issue with more is that writers of fantasy often use "bandits" as the stock bad guys that heroes can feel justified in killing.

>"Oh well, they were just bandits, it's ok to horrifically and violently murder them. Even though the only reason we're chasing them down is because they violently murdered people."

See the hypocrisy here? Perhaps your worldview would change if the campaign started you out inside a bandit camp. Where the bandits aren't just mindless monsters, but actual people trying to survive. Sure they break the law and kill people if they have to. But most likely aren't much worse than the kind of seedy corrupt shit happening within the kingdom anyways.

>And what if he offered you a million dollars, or perhaps even 10 million dollars in real life? What if your relative or significant other is dying, and the only way to save them is to take the deal, (assuming you wouldn't have the income otherwise in this situation)
>What's the right thing to do there? Let your relatives die because you were too selfish to take what was right in front of you?
The premise is a deal with the devil, so theres very clearly some reason why I wouldn't want to take the deal. Otherwise your argument is just "evil can trick people" If the offer was 10million dollars to murder an innocent then the answer is still no, not even if it would save my sickly grandmother or whatever contrived scenario you've constructed. You still seem to think that people can't genuinely believe in their principles, that it's all a front or a pretense, because you don't understand how someone could really be that dedicated.

I get that it's convenient for you to pretend that you're just following your nature like a mindless hive insect while at the same time preaching about how much agency you have, but you made a choice to burn down that orphanage, and much like swatting a mosquito nobody will feel regret when Sir Chad decapitates you midway through your villainous monologue. You can write an entire manifesto if you want, it's all meaningless drivel if you don't address the fact that your definition of "good" as a total pacifist is unrealistic and not shared by the rest of the world. Only you see the people not burning down orphanages as evil if they punish the orphanage burners. Your entire last paragraph is begging me to accept a false premise, which I refuse. Violence is a tool, what it's employed for matters, just as using a hammer to build a house is different in moral weight than using a hammer to pound nails into someone else's dick. You're not even an effective villain, you lack a grand purpose, a vision. You're just another self-interested bandit on the road. A random encounter.

You see, nobody is saying that bandits aren't people, of course they are. However, I am saying that at some point you gotta take a stand and fight, even against people who might simply be in the wrong place at wrong time. They are a threat in the current moment and that's all that matters.
Maybe your Christian morality prevents you from seeing that there is literally nothing inherently wrong with murder, but you should be able to understand that it is all about the motivation of the killing.
Need I remind you that the bandits are usually going around robbing and murdering innocent people? there is nothing wrong with getting rid of a threat, no matter how human this threat might be.
For all your talk about being dark and evil, you are parroting the talking points of the pacifists that are convinced that all violence makes you bad no matter what.
Basically your understanding of morality is shortsighted and stupid and you should take some time to think about good and evil and understand that the use of violence does not belong to only one side of the spectrum.
Little side note, every murderous dictator in history had family.

And why would you extend this sort of kindness to someone? You think someone in the same circumstance wouldn't just leave you to rot if they thought it benefited them?

Someday you'll regret not acting on yours sooner. When your coworker screws you over in order to get that promotion you've been trying to get for 10 years. When you sink 12 years into a marriage and you slut wife cheats on you for chad and divorces you and takes half the money.

Your argument is the most ridiculous combination of pearl clutching and projection.

Bad guys have all the best stuff, so if you want the best stuff, hunting other bad guys is really the only thing worth doing.

> Did you know that people who love murdering have joined the military with specifically that intent?
Didn't expect that such a pacifist in disguise could actually say something positive about the military. Do you really think it would have been better for these violent men to remain civilians and eventually murder an innocent person? it is preferable that they join the military so that their violent instincts might be able to serve a cause greater than themselves

Greed is sinful, love of money is sinful.
No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
>What if your relative or significant other is dying, and the only way to save them is to take the deal,
The serpent lies, this is nothing new. Salvation through grace, not deeds. In faith in the Lord, death is not the end but merely the passing from a material existence of pain and suffering. Death is freedom from a rotting cage of meat. Rejoice for the dead, for they stand with the Lord.

The right thing is to deny the tempter, for he seeks only to lead you astray. Begone serpent, you have no home in my heart.

Do you recall when I mentioned neutral people essentially just being "diet evil"? The great thing about Bill Guardsman is that his loyalty can be bought, or at least wavered significantly because he swears no oath to uphold righteuousness.

After all, ol Billy boy doesn't want to die in this pitiful place. He may chase for a while, but his allegiance will be more likely to himself and his family that he has to provide for.

If he dies his family we be without a provider. So do you think Bill here is going to go above and beyond to hunt down vicious bandits who will no doubt painfully torture him if not kill him if given the chance?

>>70498057
>intent is absolutely everything

The reasoning and justifications may be different, but the end result is still the same, Two men are dead and we offer our limited excuses as to why.

The house robber is a victim of poor education and economic status, and you murdered him callously in the name of defending your precious material possessions hero.

>>70498447
So what you're saying is intent doesn't matter? That's what I've been saying all along. Even this Anon realizes that your intentions really don't effect the bottom line.

It's all the same just different names. Your excuses are mildly more palatable to a frightened public too weak to look after themselves. Shepherded by corrupt officials into being pawns for the greater machine.

Keep doing your part to be another gear in the machine. Surely your hardwork shall be rewarded somehow.

Don't worry, you're not like those EVIL people. Your justifications for murder and torture are completely different from those other guys and that makes it totally justified ;^)

Bill Guardsman could've been a farmer, but he signed up for this job and feels like he's giving back to the community, plus his wife probably thinks his little metal hat is sexy. Even if he doesn't have some grand paladin morality he's happy to uphold the law and do what good he can while indulging his vices a bit like most people. That's not diet evil, just normalcy. He will, as millions of people do every day, hunt down those bandits with the boys, kill them, and get a nice ribbon of commendation from the local lord for being a good man-at-arms. We see this every single day, the world is full of Bills. Also you still haven't explained why intent doesn't matter. A dead saint is not morally equivalent to a dead serial rapist. You keep talking about agency but the overarching theme in every post is this idea that people are somehow not responsible for the actions they take. If that was the case, discussion would be pointless, killing you during your misdeeds would simply be causality in action.

Is this pasta?

The only reason to play an evil character is to run for some sort of redemption arc. Everything else just doesn't make sense in terms of what your character wants to accomplish. There are ways to do it, but generally it has to be toned down a bit. The only real agency is that the evil character needs to lie, cheat, steal, and kill to protect the party. Why? Because you need meat shields and minions and these cohorts are very specialized.

There can also be a good dichotomy between having a good and evil mixed group be forced to work together.

Generally though, most people pick the evil alignment simply to be a dick so of course it's not liked.

You know the least important thing about a threat? his past. The only thing that matters in the moment are the hands. If his hands are holding any kind of weapon he becomes an acceptable target to terminated as quickly and as efficiently as possible. Why does he have to be terminated? because if he's allowed to live he might continue to kill the innocent.
Whatever hardships the threat may have faced in his life are not relevant in the current moment. The only that's relevant is that his continued existence is a threat to you and surrounding area.
Focus on the hands, not on the past.

It's actually a combination of all of those. I'm evil because I can be. Everyone else IS ALREADY doing it anyways. I'm just more overt and have a sense of pageantry about the whole affair.
And yes, being evil will most of the time save your life in a practical situation. Because evil people will do whatever it takes to survive. And they enjoy breaking the rules so much.

Girls especially love badboys like me. Why do you think they hookup with jerks if supposedly all they want is a nice sensitive boy?

> If you raise a blade to defend yourself or others, it's entirely different from raising a sword because you enjoy hurting and killing people.
Maybe if I phrase it in terms of math right? If I asked you what 1 plus 2 equals.

You'd say 3 of course.
But then I said to you,
"ok but those numbers represent a body count, and two of those bodies were innocent civilians, while the other was a thief."

Would it change that the body count is 3? No! Because 1 plus 2 still EQUALS FUCKING THREE.

Why do I give a shit about what other people think or what they would do in my situation? It doesn't really matter whether some imaginary person would or would not leave me to die after hitting me with a car. I'm extending them kindness because I feel a sense of responsibility/compassion/duty, or because I'd feel bad if I didn't help, or even just because I want to be nice. Why should I care whether or not I'd get repaid for it, that's not what kindness is about.

>Where will your goodness and decency be then?
The same place it's always been. Those things aren't dependent on how successful you are. A good person who tries and fails doesn't suddenly become less of a good person. If my wife was the kind of wife who cheated on me then she's probably a bitch anyway and I'm well rid of her. And I can exit the relationship knowing that I sincerely tried instead of betraying my partners trust like she did.

>You think these top politicians and CEO's really believe in this whole "family values" bullshit

I'm going to be Chaotic Evil, because it gives me unlimited freedom. Because it's honest. Because I've embraced my darkside.

We all have darkness within us. Other people, they fear their darkness. But me? I've embraced it. I've been in the dark for quite a while now. It suits me. It's ebony sheets wrap me warm like a blanket.
Choosing evil is the most honest alignment choice, and the one which gives you the most freedom. I am woke to peoples true nature. I've seen through the kayfabe. I have started into the abyss, and the abyss has stared back. And I have found my truth. The truth that humanity isn't worth saving. The only person that matters, the only person who can survive in this world is the one who's unfettered by concepts like morality.

>"alright then, I'll defend myself against you"
You will try. But you won't succeed. Part of being a villain is being several steps ahead. Heroes will murder you without a second thought, despite their pious nature they're just diet evil cronies.

You offer salvation in one hand, death in the other.. Well unfortunately for you, theres no salvation for you in either of my hands. There's only your blood, and death.

>You fucking capitalist pig think about the value of human life i am a victim too
We're all victims. But see this is what I meant. The supposed heroes who champion facets of goodness are incapable of empathy.
Liars with agendas to satisfy their own ends. Few if any actually believe the drivel they spin to justify themselves. Why do you think I gave up on the idea of goodness? It's all so fucking phony.

Oh shit I can't believe you pulled this retardation of all things out of your ass. If someone breaks into your home you have no idea what they're there for. It's not in yours or your family's interests to ask if he just wants your jewelry and vidya consoles. Your best interest is defending your home at all costs.

I'm hardly enthusiastic to take a life, but I will defend myself and my family without question.

It's been an unintentionally fun character study. It's like watching a petty minor villain with delusions of grandeur slowly become worn down and show his true colors. Turns out all along the villain was just scared.

And what's "special" about being another cog in the machine? Hiding amoungst the other docile sheep. Pretending you care about morals. And for what? So the other sheep will accept you?

Right this way! Step right up! And you too can follow society's little list of somewhat arbitrary rules! It's a game that nobody asked for but you all have to play anyways!
Cater to the sensibilities of overly sensitive SJWs! Ride the roller coaster of fear mongering! The fun never stops on this wild ride!

You see, their morals, their 'code'? It's a bad joke. Dropped whenever it's convenient for them. And it can even shift between different groups of people. Where people put on different faces like a fucking masquerade party.

You get these sort of "drive-thru" morals. Bastardizations of moral sounding things that sound smart that mindless idiots parrot over and over.

I made a thread yesterday with the same sort of theme. But I didn't really get into WHY being neutral rocks, so here are some things which make being neutral the best thing you can do, and also the most fun.

1. Killing without remorse.

By far one of the most annoying things in games is this idea of "oh we need to give mercy to the bad guys" kind of bullshit. A neutral character is free to kill when the situation logically warrants it, yet they don't fall into the banality of an Evil character's whimsical rampaging.

2. Doing what's necessary for the party, when it's necessary

As a neutral character, you're free to act within the law, outside of the law, selflessly, or selfishly as the situation dictates. You're not restrained by morality in what you can do, you can just fuckin do it, which is great for bypassing roadblocks in a campaign. Sometimes you just have to fucking do something.

3. YOU ACTUALLY GET TO HAVE AGENCY IN THE GAME

The biggest and best reason to be Neutral, is that you can give the DM the middle finger and bypass his 'moral quandary' if you need to. Once you do that, you become the center of attention, whether for better or worse, now you're the shot-caller. Now you're the boss.

Those other pussy heroes and villains want to do the same thing, but can't because they get cucked by their own morality. Which is why Neutral is so amazing especially in Roleplaying Games.

Thats interesting, because I was under the impression that just about everyones empathy circuits were malfunctioning.

With the United States consistently drone striking the middle east like they're playing a game of darts. You'd think we were all but detached from the suffering of others.

Remember when we drone striked a wedding?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wech_Baghtu_wedding_party_airstrike

Or any of the other countless times we killed civilians? How we ally ourselves with people like Kim Jong Un despite him being a tyrannical dictator?

How about when we let companies export all the jobs overseas to cheap out on labor costs which cost american jobs?

How about the other countless fucking examples of terrible shitty things happening but no one gave a single fuck about any of it?

>>70503025
I'm not special, I'm just ahead of the curve. See I'm not inside the fence with the rest of you. I'm on the outside looking in. And all I see are sad little sheep who traded away their identity and freedom for security. No one wants to stir the pot. No one wants to get involved and make a difference.

You SAY you're all heroes. But you're nothing but cowards. And while the world burns you're marathoning some new netflix series. Numbing yourself to it all.

See this works because Neutral is essentially diet evil.

You forgot all the flip flopping and switching to the good side when your conscience magically decides to work for a few minutes before it sputters to a halt and dies again when you realize that being good fucking sucks and you'd rather be a selfish bastard like me.

Kind of like that whole being evil business. Except you don't have the balls to own it. You'll play both sides like a cheating housewife, sleeping with both whenever it suits you. You're a cheap whore, and your loyalty is bought and sold, just like you.

I can never truly respect neutrals, because they just don't have the balls to admit what they are. Cowards.

>>70503360
>>70503362
It just feels like neutrals don't want to pick a side. So they were like fuck it, we'll just be in the middle. It's a big fucking cop out. Like of course every sheeples is gonna be like "bro I'm just neutral" because you don't have any of the loyalty or consequences of either side.

I wish they'd honestly just commit to evil like they should. Evil is pretty fucking great. You get to chill with all the villains. You get to be dark and brooding and edgy, plot evil schemes, do an evil laugh. It's fucking awesome ngl.

But I mean, when you pick neutral you aren't even really picking a side. You're just like "eh, I'll do your dirtywork if you pay me."

And it's just like, well what the fuck does that do? Where's the loyalty to your fucking alignment?

I mean, if you're born a fucking lunatic who needs to murder people in horrific and prolific ways to get an erection then you might as well enlist in the army of the Good Kingdom™ so that when you return to the castle, covered in an inch-thick layer of crusted blood and with a codpiece that long since ruptured from the inside, you have a crowd of people cheering for you since you have technically made the world a better place for them as a side effect of your own narcissistic degeneracy, and you won't get armies of paladins chasing you down and smiting you. There's always another evil army to kill, another petty tyrant to slay, another band of orcs in the hills to butcher, crucify, and eat - Not necessarily in that order.

Life is certainly simpler that way. You ask the Wise King who needs to not be alive anymore, he points and shoots, you get to indulge your depravity with little-no consequence. Hell, the good guys want to keep you around because you make a good deterrent and example of what you can be if you just play ball.

Dude, you suck at being Evil. Your "league of super cool evil guys", in any game founded on any slight basis of plausibility, is a scapegoat and a smokescreen for a bigger, more levelheaded evil who's scheming in the background. And personally, I'd prefer to play for that side if I have to be "evil".

Or just, you know, don't piss on everybody else's groove. If you play a chaotic evil stab-happy character in a good-leaning party without making special considerations and trying to work out the logistics with the rest of your group then you're being a cunt.

I have decided from this point forward in the thread that you shall refer to me as "Hellscorn", as is befitting someone as evil and cunning as I am. With my Raven Black Hellblades, I'll rend my enemies. And steal their very souls in order to gain power. I will amass a following unlike any other. Soon dragons, and even gods shall come to my aid. And my dark kingdom shall be born.

This will be the campaign I choose to write. And it will be unlike most typical campaigns. As it will be EVIL, and focused on doing bad stuff instead of the typical goody-two-shoes shtick we get stuck with. As I've stated there are many benefits to serving the dark kingdom
>>70488579 As seen here.

But even more are sure to come as the campaign continues. Anyhow, I'm gonna make a big, dark evil looking castle, and it's gonna have clouds all over it. And the sky is gonna be red like blood. All around will be bodies impaled on spikes as a warning to those who would oppose my evil reign.
Lesser factions shall offer tribute to my greatness, and give me offerings of hot girls and gold and stuff.

And I'll have a harem of sexy slave girls who serve under me. And they'll all wear my symbol.
I will ride a red and black dragon into battle and people will run in fear at the monsters I command. Oh yes, there will be demons, and orcs, and bandits, and skeletons, and zombies, and basically all kinds of evil people who will serve me, and it'll be fucking awesome.

Honestly, women mostly like men who are interesting and strong. Self-absorbed guys are really low on the list. As a PC with massive temporal power, I admit I have a thing for unusual, 'studly' partners like minotaurs and so on. Not for a relationship, but for physical gratification.

I particularly like undead, if I can make them myself. Not because of the Necromancy aspect, but because you utterly control your partner. That's admittedly pretty hot.
>>
>>70507873

>>70507988
It's fantasy. Part of the fantasy is having leeway to pick your sexual partners purely for enjoyment. All of the PCs I've played with are awful and sweaty, and I don't want to give anyone the 'trophy' of an in-game romance. Hence, it's NPCs.

With NPCs and constructs, I can highlight that my PC is a sexual entity without being eligible to any of my party members. I mean, I like sex, but I don't want to sleep with the universally lame PCs. And yes, I universally play spellcasters.

Think of it as a movie, where the hero has an 'ex-wife' or a sexy girlfriend to show that he's having sex. This is the female equivalent, it takes the guy out of the equation.

>Ruling is hard. This was maybe my answer to Anon, whom, as much as I admire him, I do quibble with. Lord of the evil terrorkeep had a very childish philosophy: that if the king was a evil man, the land would prosper. We look at real history and it’s not that simple. Tolkien can say that Hellscorn became king and reigned for a hundred years, and he was edgy and evil. But Anon doesn’t ask the question: What was Hellscorn’s tax policy? Did he maintain a standing army? What did he do in times of flood and famine? And what about all these goody-two-shoes? By the end of the war, the hypocrite king is gone but all of the moralfags aren’t gone – they’re in the population. Did Hellscorn pursue a policy of systematic genocide and kill them? Even the little baby moralfags and sheep like normalfags, in their little goody-two-shoes cradles?

I have done all three of these on a chaotic neutral character.
1) killed cultists worshipping a demon in cold blood. We weren't attacked, they weren't abducting people. They worshipped my parent demon (tiefling) and i didn't like that one bit.
2) i have repeatedly stolen from nobility, or lied to collect a bounty i didn't personally kill but managed to get proof for.
3) due to my character having proficiency in crafting I've made magic items and sold them, upending the local economy for them because of how cheaply i can make them. I also killed a warlord and ursurped his throne, got a prince disbarred from the royal family, and generally fucked the world up wherever i could.

Unless your gm is trash or you are playing from a manual, a player has skme amount of agency in the world.

As a dm my stories are more reactive than i read on here typically.

Sure, sure, player agency and that.
But you're going to make a lot of powerful enemies, and constantly be on the run, because nobody likes an asshole.
And your enemies can be just as ruthless as yourself.
Hope you like being sold out twice a session, and having to check your boots for scorpions every morning when you get up, and your bed for gigantic bear-trap mechanisms hidden under the mattress before you fall asleep.

And of course, hungry ghosts and vengeful sprites will dog you wherever you go.

>you try to take a leak in a bush
You're attacked by an incorporeal deer-spirit wearing the face of your last victim

>Fifteen hopped-up death-cultists chase you through a marketplace in broad daylight

You will never rest, you will never have a chance to recover, and the forces amassed to hunt you down will dog you to a miserable death.

I'll make it fun, but bad men meet bad ends, because that's the way of the world.
Y' dig?
