</p>
Many of the characters that inspired D&D were firmly neutral. Conan. Fafhrd & the Gray Mouser. Elric of Melnibone. John Carter. Some of the Fellowship and <i>most</i> of the characters from the Hobbit. Even Holger, from Three Hearts & Three Lions, the inspiration for the Paladin class, wasn't classically crusading good, but resigned to having to fight the bad guys to earn a ticket home, so that he could get the heck away from the battle between 'good and evil' that he'd found himself pulled into (with his motivation for staying and fighting the good fight to remain with the woman he'd fallen in love with).</p>
<p>Classical 'heroes' like Achilles, Theseus and Hercules similarly fit the neutral mold far better than the good one.</p>
<p>Evil's the easiest to write for, IMO. Villainous evil is active and ambitious and has plans to set in motion and goals to achieve. Heroes too often sit around and wait for the villains to do something, and then react, so that, ultimately, their 'goodness' is restricted to dancing when the villains pull the strings, to rise up in opposition, spending the rest of their time sitting around, instead of actually doing anything good, like building orphanages or feeding the hungry or putting an end to slavery or eradicating diseases or educating serfs so that they can rise above their station and become craftsmen or whatnot.</p>
<p>It's kind of a paradox, that to write for heroes, you have to start with writing a villain stirring something up to make the heroes get off their butts.</p>
<p>It's even woven into our modern stories. 'Heroes' like Han Solo or Jason Bourne have to be dragged kicking and screaming out of a comfortable life of morally ambiguous (or flat out evil) activities, and either someone really evil tries to kill them, or does kill someone they care about, and they end up becoming a foe of evil (despite not being particularly good). 'Good,' in today's fiction, means 'opposed to evil,' and the 'heroes' never have to do anything remotely •good• intentioned or kind or compassionate or whatever, they just have to pump bullets into people wearing even darker hats than their own, which may not be 'good,' but seems to be 'good enough.'</p>
<p>So, really, Alain's got an even easier motivation built in, than Kyra. He craves glory, recognition and advancement. He likes spending money on himself, to decorate himself and to treat himself with the sorts of comforts he feels that he's earned. Charging into a new adventure is sort of his thing, as he gains combat experience, furthers his legend, possibly locates new gear, and certainly accumulates coin to spend on cold hard toys and warm soft women. Kyra, on the other hand, might be strongly motivated to remain behind after a goblin attack on a village, and tend to the wounded and help put out the fires and minister to those who are scared or grieving. That sort of thing might serve her church much more in the long run, than if she joined Alain in rushing off to the goblin lair to kill them all. She's got a real chance of bringing surviving villagers over the faith of the Dawnflower, and bettering not just their lives, in the short-term, but their souls, in the long-term. Plus, even if Alain kills every goblin within 30 miles of the village, <i>something</i> will replace them (possibly even more goblins, expanding into suddenly available territory), and Kyra knows that the village will be no safer next year than if he hadn't bothered.
