I've been thinking recently after having seen Green Lantern: The Animated Series and reading up on Lantern stuff: what Character Alignment would all the different Lantern colors be? There are the same amount of colors as alignments, so I figured it would work pretty naturally.

I think Yellow would be Lawful Evil, and Red would be Chaotic Neutral (I originally thought Red Lanterns were Always Chaotic Evil, but apparently Atrocitus is an Anti-Hero sometimes). And maybe Green is Lawful Good?

Could anyone advise me on what they think all the Corps would be aligned as?

It seems that the whole point of The New Guardians series was to debunk the idea of "alignments" when it comes to these characters.

I think the leadership is the only thing that makes a difference. The Guardians are (as of late) Lawful Neutral, so they expect their Corps to be run that way. Sinestro was Lawful Evil, and thus so was his Corps. I guess it basically comes down to who's in charge at the time and how they run their ship.

What about the emotional spectrum then?

Would they have alignments that they would lean towards usually?

As far as good and evil? I'd say no. I'd even say that most of them can also fall anywhere within Order and Chaos.

However, I'd argue that Avarice is the most Chaotic and Fear is the most Orderly, kinda sorta. Fear typically restricts what a person does or is willing to do while avarice rejects restrictions.
