Good vs. Evil, what kind of split do you expect?

[Andas]

Sorry if this has been asked before. I tried searching, but didn't see anything...

In most heroic fantasy you are the hero. Although there may be character flaws and such the main character is generally considered the good guy.

With PFO depending on a lot of player generated conflict - do you expect a lot of people to play evil?

For myself I generally play an honorable, basically good character. I can't imagine being a robber, assassin, or tyrant.

What kind of character will you play?

Given the Keepers of the Circle are NG and I need to stay within one step, I am looking at two characters.

Druid: True Neutral
Cleric:Chaotic Good

[Arlock Blackwind]

even though I do not see me burning villages to the ground or kicking puppies I will be a lawful evil player that commonly uses undead to discover the secrets of golarion.

What I expect is a lot of people to play evil and have good alts fronting for them, in short gamers will figure out how the alignment system works and game it to the max.

Chaotic vs. Lawful is a much easier guess... Chaotic 70, Lawful 30 would be mine.

The Good vs. Evil will perhaps remain 20 / 20 and Neutral would be 60.

Now I'm not a math whiz, but I'd say in general the average player would run Chaotic Neutral most of the time.

[IronVanguard]

Very specific guesses there Bludd. You seem incredibly sure Chaotic Neutral will be most common.

I sincerely hope it's not nearly that biased in one place.

[Neadenil Edam]

A complete lack of neutral players on the law/chaos axis is highly unlikely.

I like the morally-grey, bordering on evil. Or what I like to call Constructive Evil, or CE for short. ;) I'm envisioning a sort of Tyrant-in-waiting, but with a strict code of conduct and not a complete douche.

In this game, however, I keep getting the sense that evil is more a measure of how much you enjoy PKing paladins, so I suspect my evil character will probably be LG or something.

Ceteris parabis, I would expect Evil to outnumber Good by about 2 to 1.

Ryan is doing a lot of things to tamp down random Evil, and he's expressed an opinion that most player characters will end up Chaotic Good. I'm inclined to think he's pretty smart about these things, so he'll probably be right.
