Its really an entirely different alignment system.
There have been many takes on alignment over the years. Ultima really only
ahs a law/chaos scale for instance, or at elkast thats the dmoninant
alingment.
The big question coems down to this-- is it really useful to catagorize
characters in such fashion? Fasntasy hero has no notion of alingmnet and
I never ntoed it to be a problem., Instead it has specific perosnality
traits and quirks that youa ssemble to coem up witha reasonably complete
character.
