You mean things like Stupid Evil?
...What do you mean by parodies? Do you mean the nonstandard alignments such as Stupid Evil and Neutral Selfish, or something else? Enlighten us.

Fiat iustitia, et pereat mundus.Well, in that respect, there's limitless possibilities on what you can do with them.
I'm sorry to say that I don't really have any advice or opinions on the matter.
-ducks out of the thread-
"Jack, you have debauched my sloth."Nice find. Boring Evil is actually a pretty good fit for one of my villains, come to think of it.
My favorite from the generator: Sarcastic Evil. For some reason I find the word 'sarcastic' funny.
Shinigan (Naruto fanfic)One that's gotten discussion before is "Chaotic Everywhere", This character not only believes in maximum personal freedom to do as hesh pleases, but must be involved in all the campaign's/story's events, regardless of how physically implausible this would be.
To give an example: one player in a series of RPG campaigns I also participated in had this as the alignment for all his characters. If half the party was delving in a dungeon while the other half was on a wilderness expedition, his character would somehow be on both teams. The same applied if any other character was trying to get something done solo. You want a private audience with the duke for diplomatic discussions? Searching through the books in the wizarding school library? Some personal time with the cute barmaid? His character would be there and demanding attention, and usually ticking off the NPC with ill-timed and vulgar comments.
Sadly, he was the GM's roomie and paid the majority of the rent.
This sounds like Schrodinger from Hellsing.
Fiat iustitia, et pereat mundus.I suppose you could take various mental defects, and if you are creative enough, put them on a mind map then you have your alignments. I can't figure out if this one ex of mine was chaotic borderline or borderline neutral. Is BPD a fuction of law and chaos or good and evil or do we create a new axis?
Whether you think you can, or you think you can't, you are probably right.There are a surprising number of political theorists and psych researchers who use 2D profiles that are analagous to D&D alignments. R.Manzer, Political Compass, the OKC Political Test, et al.
Whether you think you can, or you think you can't, you are probably right.I loved four results in particular from that character alignment generator:
- Enthusiastic Neutral
- Neurotic Good (something I know I'll have to play with)
- Inattentive Evil
- Chaotic Unoriginal

My troper wallUntfathomable X: Omniscient Morality License, with the added bonus of being almost unknowable. As of such, the only real distinction between them would be how the unfathomable being thinks of themselves. examples: God (U.G), Gygas (U. E) Yog-Sogoth (U.N) Kamen no maid guy (U.A (Unknowable awesome.)
Self-Righteous X: when someone THINKS their one morality but is in fact another one, normally Lawful evil thinking they are lawful good. They are the morality they THINK they are for magical effects however, except for the ones which directly detect alignments, and even then they probably won’t believe you. EX: Any Knight Templar is Self-Righteous Good (actually l.E).
Hungry Neutral: no malice, just want their damn lunch. The Blob would probably be this.
Card-carrying Evil. Self-Explanatory
Some of the best stuff I've seen in the comments for the generator:
Confused Neutral
Obsessive Evil
Sexy Evil

He's like fire and ice and rage. He's ancient and forever. He burns at the centre of time. Rory punched him in the face.^ Hmm . . .

Chaotic Verbose, the alignment of Those Two Bad Guys.
You exist because we allow it and you will end because we demand it.Here's an interesting one:
Lawful Pyromaniac.
Like Fahrenheit 451?

Wouldn't Verbose Evil fit better there?
Inebriated Evil...
Isn't that Doctor Jekyll?
Nous restons ici.Pedantic Neutral?
Whether you think you can, or you think you can't, you are probably right.Lawful Rabid (Elliot Stabler)
Lawful Nerdy (Gil Grissom)
Lawful Sunglasses (Horatio Caine)
Nous restons ici.
I've been thinking of creating my own parody Character Alignments, but I'm currently lacking in inspiration. Any suggestions for already-existing Character Alignment parodies to do "research" on? The Character Alignment example list is pretty much exclusively composed of non-parodies at the moment, and they all looked... boring!
