i've been thinking about the personality alignments for good omens characters!! since u are an expert on them what are your opinions?? so far i have crowley as chaotic neutral (the poster child), gabriel and hastur as lawful evil, and aziraphale as lawful neutral(?)
i am far from an expert, but i can try
honestlyĀ i feel like iād put crowley more as chaotic good.Ā yes, heās a demon. sure, he does bad things. but thatās just because itās what heās supposedĀ to do.Ā at heart, if left alone, he just really cares about people and wants to do whatās best. (and maybe cause some mischief along the way, but hey, whatās the point of living if you canāt have some fun?)
aziraphale is harder? iād say by inclination heās more chaotic, but heās tryingĀ to be lawful good. he thinksĀ he wants to follow the rules. and he thinks heavenās rules should be good. but the moment he sees a rule he dislikes he breaks it! gives away his sword, makes deals with demons and does half their homework. so at the beginning of the series this maybe averages out to a neutral, but by the end heās let go of expectations and gone full chaotic. book aziraphale maybe leans more towards true neutral, but i feel the tv version iād also put as chaotic good
the thing with aziraphale and crowley is that, more than anything else, theyāre motivated by love. love for earth. love for humans and all the ridiculous and wonderful things they can do. love for each other. being an angel and demon is just their job, and not one either especially cares for. they do it because they have to, but theyād much rather just hang around earth having fun
gabriel is definitely lawful evil who thinks heās lawful good. honestly most of the angels we see seem to fit this
hastur is absolutely evil, but i donāt think iād call him lawful? though hellās whole thingĀ being chaos makes it a bit weirder to categorize. possibly more neutral, since while heās doing what heās ordered, heās also got his whole hastur la vista thing. beelzebub maybe would be lawful evil
the horsepeople probably all fall in neutral, rather than good or evil. they are things that exist, but not out of their own malicious intent. death, perhaps, lawful neutral, famine true neutral, war and pollution chaotic neutral
adam, sort of by definition, is the most true neutral of all. not good, not evil, not heaven, not hell, just human. the rest of the Them possibly also fall here? mostly i feel theyāre too small to really be firmly anywhere
anathema is maybe lawful verging on neutral good, if the laws you follow are agnesā prophesies, and by throwing those off in the end, pushes herself more to neutral. newt is...idk, i donāt care enough about newt to have thought about him much. neutral good? true neutral?
shadwell is chaotic neutral/evil. sure they try to make him seem endearing in a weird old man way, but literally every other thing he says is calling someone a slur, and that is. not actually forgivable in my book. madame tracy i would put as neutral good
take this with a grain of salt because i have played approximately two days of d&d and do not actually understand alignments. (not, from what iāve gathered, that anyone seems to be in strict agreement on what they mean anyway!) and if anyone wants to give their own take pleaseĀ feel free
