D&D Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
“Chaotic Neutral is called the “Anarchist” or “Free Spirit” alignment. A character of this alignment is an individualist who follows his or her own heart, and generally shirks rules and traditions. Although they promote the ideals of freedom, it is their own freedom that comes first. Good and Evil come second to their need to be free, and the only reliable thing about them is how totally unreliable they are. Chaotic Neutral characters are free-spirited and do not enjoy the unnecessary suffering of others, but if they join a team, it is because that team’s goals coincide with their own. They invariably resent taking orders and can be very selfish in their pursuit of personal goals. A Chaotic Neutral character does not have to be an aimless wanderer; they may have a specific goal in mind, but their methods of achieving that goal are often disorganized, unorthodox, or entirely unpredictable. Chaotic neutral is the best alignment you can be because it represents true freedom from both society’s restrictions and a do-gooder’s zeal. Chaotic neutral can be a dangerous alignment because it seeks to eliminate all authority, harmony, and order in society.”
Four Temperaments: sanguine
“enthusiastic, active and social”
Divergent Faction: Candor
“Candor value honesty and order. They tell the truth, even when you wish they wouldn't.”
MBTI: ENTP — “the debater”
“The ENTP personality type is the ultimate devil’s advocate, thriving on the process of shredding arguments and beliefs and letting the ribbons drift in the wind for all to see.”
“ENTPs don’t do this because they are trying to achieve some deeper purpose or strategic goal, but for the simple reason that it’s fun.”
“An odd juxtaposition arises with ENTPs, as they are uncompromisingly honest, but will argue tirelessly for something they don’t actually believe in, stepping into another’s shoes to argue a truth from another perspective.”
Enneagram: 4w3
“Fours are self-aware, sensitive, and reserved. They are emotionally honest, creative, and personal, but can also be moody and self-conscious. Withholding themselves from others due to feeling vulnerable and defective, they can also feel disdainful and exempt from ordinary ways of living. They typically have problems with melancholy, self-indulgence, and self-pity. At their Best: inspired and highly creative, they are able to renew themselves and transform their experiences.
Basic Fear: That they have no identity or personal significance
Basic Desire: To find themselves and their significance (to create an identity)”
Horoscope: Leo; 6 August 1993
Leos are warm, action-oriented, driven people. They have an abundance of energy; are straightforward (sometimes to their detriment because they refuse to mince words); and loyal. However, they can be possessive (and, so, prone to jealousy) though are still giving; they don't like to share what they think is theirs; they can be dominating, wanting to be in control of a situation and always have the upper hand; impatient; and arrogant.
There was no sunrise or sunset, just a series of clocks that were haphazardly synced with Deluxe, so Mike had to wave his hand till he hits one of the buttons that would put up one of the few displays actually built into Mutt to find out what time it was.
About three AM, whooh, maybe he had been more tired than he thought.
He’s out of Mutt, in Jacob’s and hunting for the milk before he remembers what he’d been trying to forget.
There’s less than a quarter left of the milk, so he chugs a good portion of it to get rid of the taste in his mouth and takes it with him to the bar. It’s both a blessing and a curse that no one is around, because now he has to think about it.
But why bother? Why so fixated? It was normally the terrible things; the things he wanted to fix that caught his attention. This wasn’t so bad, they were just… just in…. they kissed.
They were… together?
How did that even? Mike had never seen anything like that before, certainly not in Deluxe.
In Deluxe, if you didn’t meet someone on your own you went through the system. Most people did anyways because it was just so accurate.
Mike had always assumed that that was how he’d meet his future wife. Like all things in Deluxe, Mike had had great faith in that system. His own parents had met that way, and they hadn’t just been lovers, but best friends until the day they had died. Mike had wanted what they had, and what better way to get it than to go the same path?
Mike had filled out a profile on a dare once, hadn’t submitted it, but all the other cadets had been curious about what kind of questions and such. It had been embarrassingly thorough, but Mike was sure that “are you looking for another boy” was not one of those questions.
Maybe… maybe…. And Mike didn’t even know how to continue justifying at that point, because he knew what he had seen.
Maybe they were, he didn’t know, one of a kind. Maybe it was like, a relationship mutation, like the weird animals they saw, and he had just caught a glimpse of something abnormal.
Or maybe…
The hand on his shoulder was sudden, and honestly scared him enough to fling the empty jug.
