I'm having trouble with "amoral" and "immoral", which count as "Above Good and Evil" and which one count as "Blue-and-Orange Morality", and how do we define them?

I'm afraid to write, but I like to imagine.

Immoral is the opposite of moral. Amoral is the lack of moral and immoral qualities.

Above Good and Evil claims to be amoral, but is frequently immoral in practice. It can be amoral, such as if it's an actual god who is above morals, but usually it's a lofty claim by someone who's immoral by the standards of the world.

Blue-and-Orange Morality isn't by definition on any place on our morality scale. Its own scale has the full range from moral to immoral, though. That scale can overlap and cross several times with our morality scale, so it's neither exclusive nor inclusive. Whether it's moral, amoral, or immoral depends entirely on which view you take, and the specific situation.
