I agree with you that good and bad can be subjective. However, I do not think the concept should be abolished, it would jeopardizes the law system already in place with contracts and other aspects of the game that make it so two players are bound by an agreement. Whether a person breaks the laws or an agreement it's up to an individual player, there won't be invisible forces to force the law. The only people that can force the law are players themselves. If a person can get away with it is because of how cunning and skillful that individual was! Which is fun in my opinion!!

If in the law-breaker's eyes perceive himself as 'good' then that's fine. People that have been unjustly dealt with will sooner or later seek revenge. That's part of the game. Whether you choose to be good or evil is up to you :)!

Good and evil are different things entirely from law and chaos. Laws don't determine what is good and bad, laws just a society, whether good or evil, functioning in a consistent way.

One game's mythos I really enjoy is Pathfinder's. It puts less emphasis on good vs evil and more on law vs chaos. An interesting spin on things imo. The first battle of the gods was not one of good vs evil but of absolute order vs total anarchy.

I find where people stand in terms of law and chaos to be just as, if not more interesting than where they stand on the good and evil axis.

That's an interesting take on it. I don't think I've ever thought of it that way. Thanks for your comment!

@CheshireVee Very much so what I mean.

When it comes to Good vs Evil the debate is dead, they are a subjective concept (for those of you that don't understand my meaning, Subjective: based on or influenced by personal feelings, tastes, or opinions.)

If we want to use Good and Evil we need to take the ruler's opinion and base it on that. (in this case Caspian). Beyond that, I feel as though Lawful and Chaotic should be expanded upon, not every good person is kind, not every evil person breaks the law.

Which brings us back to a subjective point of view if I'm not mistaken. As laws and tendencys then need to be established.
