A question about alignment Empty A question about alignment

I note that alignments are arranged into tiers such as “hero”, “renegade” and “villain”.

Does choosing an alignment with the word “evil” in it automatically make the character a villain without regard to the actions or behavior of that character?

Isn’t it possible that an “evil” alignment can coexist and operate with “good” alignments without abrogating their own standards? Isn’t it more a matter of motivations and means?

You're overthinking it. This is a super hero rp site, so we use broad comic book-esque labels. Our evil characters are villains, our good characters heroes, and renegade covers the wide range in-between. Your character goes into whatever group you want, so there's not really any issue.

Overthinking it… okay that is entirely possible. Just relax and make the character, okay. I can do that. Thanks
