In your opinion, what alignment do the companions of Dragon Age II fall under?

Anders-Chaotic Good.  This is arguable since his methods are so extreme that he may be classified as a "well-intentioned extremist" which is a trait of chaotic evil.  However, I think examining his intentions he was truly convinced that if he didn't do this, mages would die since he probably believed the Chantry would side with the Templars and he's probably right.  This was an act of desperation for him and no matter how extreme, it was still well intentioned.

Varric-Chaotic Neutral.  This guy likes being with Hawke for the fun of the adventure.  Varric is a thrill and fortune seeker pure and simple and he could care less about the politics behind the Chantry or the Circle.

Isabela-Chaotic Neutral.  Like Varric, Isabela is also a thrill seeker but she also has an alterior motive, to get her ship back.  She is loyal enough to her friends as to not do anything overtly evil for her own benefit but what benefits her still comes first.

Merrill-Neutral Good.  Merill truly wishes to do good and perhaps because she is simply naive does not see the use of blood magic as being inherently evil.  She lacks the independence to be chaotic good and actually laments not being part of the Dalish community.  Merrill is a follower but doing what she thinks is right still comes first.

Sebastian-Lawful Good.  He sees the chantry as a force of righteousness and benevolence and feels that it's laws and customs are the best ways to achieve and promote goodness to the world.  He's fully dedicated to the chantry, so much so that he'll even refuse to believe they can do anything wrong and will justify it with an excuse such as the maker working in mysterious ways and other such dogma.

Aveline-Lawful Neutral.  Aveline is a woman of justice whose primary concern is with enforcing the law and ensuring stability in the volatile political climate of Kirkwall.  She does have a set of morals but she does not believe law breaking is justified even if the law breaker may have good intentions.  We saw such an example when confronting the Arishok about the two criminal Elves who had converted to the Qun.  Aveline felt they had to turn themselves in even though she sympathized with their rationale somewhat.

Fenris-Lawful Neutral.  You'd think Fenris would adopt a Chaotic Good viewpoint after having lived as a slave but even despite his former slavehood he still recognizes and firmly believes in the importance in maintaining order, in particular with the Circle of magi.

Bethany-Lawful Good.  Bethany has a kind heart who believes in fighting evil in whatever form in may come in, but at the same time, even as a mage she recognizes the importance of the circle and she's the structure of such an organization in being important in not just preventing demonic possessions but also in the utilization of mage talents for good.

Carver-Neutral Good.  Carver looks up to his brother/sister as either a friend or a rival and aspires to be a hero.  He doesn't feel particularly bound to the Grey Wardens being that he became one by chance but he doesn't mind being one since it allows him to pursue his dream of being a true hero.
Whatever helps Carver achieve his dream of being a hero is what matters most to him and if it means working alone or working with a legitimate authority, so be it. 

Dog-True Neutral.  What his master likes, he likes.  So long as he gets a belly rub and leftover nug from supper.

Hawke-Hawke can be lawful good, chaotic good, chaotic neutral, lawful neutral, or neutral evil depending on how you play him.

Aveline sometimes appreciates bending the rules to do good. She approves when you kill Kelder, I think. I'd say she was Lawful Good.

Aveline is Lawful Good, she does not enforce laws that she sees as unnecessary and loves her position as Guard Captain because she believes in it's power to do good. She ignores the law at times to aid her friends and enforce a more literal sense of justice, one that the law might not allow because of bureaucratic nonsense or corruption (killing Kelder).

Bethany is more Neutral Good as she doesn't see any reason to abide by laws that she views as unjust, and has no conflict of emotion when disobeying. She does good regardless of law or order.

Varric is Neutral Good (perhaps Chaotic Good), though he might like to be seen as a Chaotic Neutral character. He does good and asks for nothing in return, in fact he actively denies having done good to avoid too much attention.

Most of your other alignments I agree with, save for maybe Anders.

Fenris approves if you blackmail Thrask about his daughter having been an apostate/mage/abomination. He looks kind of gleeful about it even. I think he's far more chaotic than neutral. He does have a deep sense of honor though, to those to whom he feels beholden. Well, that whole Fog Warrior debacle notwithstanding, of course--which is probably why he does try hard to be loyal, to make up for it, in part. Still, it was a surprise--I thought he would be ticked.

If your Hawke promises to kill Kelder before going into the ruins, Aveline backs Hawke up saying something to the guards like "who's to know if there's no body found" or "who's to know we won't find just a bloody corpse" or something. She's totally in favor of killing that guy even before the group meets him or Lia. I guess Hawke's powers of persuasion could just be that good.

[Cutlass Jack]

In my opinion...

Anders is Chaotic Neutral at best. He was never what I'd call 'good' even before he got Justice. Any good act he does is easilly countered by the selfish/evil crap he pulls.

Varric is Chaotic Good. He was always doing good acts when no one was looking, (secretly looking after Blondie and Daisy for example) and favored good actions from Hawke.

Bethany is Neutral Good. She always favors good acts but she's not a stickler for rules or terribly chaotic.

Isabela as Chaotic Neutral is fair, but she certainly has Chaotic Good leanings.

Carver is almost the opposite. Chaotic good, with strong neutral leanings. He doesn't go out of his way to do the right thing and can often be a selfish <explative>

Aveline is Lawful Good with some Neutral good Leanings. She prefers Law but knows that sometimes you need to bend the rules to do the right thing. But you make good arguements for Lawful Neutral.

Fenris feels more Chaotic Neutral to me. He has no problem sticking his fist through peoples bodies even when promising he won't. I wouldn't confuse his hatred of mages with a love of order.

Merril as Neutral Good feels about right. Her intent is good even when her actual actions are dubious.

And finally my Hawke (Flynn) is about as Chaotic Good as is possible for one to be.

Anders is chaotic neutral.  Has zero repect for law/order/authority and just about everything he ever did was to further his own agenda.  Do some good things some bad and thus classic CN.

Merrill I see as neutral.  She doesn't show or act altruistic so she isn't really good (which belies her "cuteness").  Dealing with spirits, helping blood mages escape, and disapproving when destroying "evil tomes" is not a good character.  She feels bound to do what is best for her tribe and station, but is does so in what way she feels best; so she is neither lawful nor chaotic.

Bethany is neutral good.  Strives to do what is best.

Isabella is chaotic neutral.  Will free slaves, but willing to allow a slaver to continue slaving for a ship.  No respect for law/order/authority.  classic CN.

Sebastian is clearly lawful good.  If you let Anders live, he hints at an alignment change.

Varric is chaotic good.  He disapproves of Hawk's violence/threats and has zero resepct for tradition/law.

Aveline is tough.  She talks more about law and order than she practices them, generally wants to do the right thing but at times can be convinced not to.  She is at times neutral good and lawful neutral.

Fenris is chaotic neutral.  He is selfish and allows his own prejudices to dictate his actions.  Murders bad people.

Carver is whiney and tough because he supports everyone he feels is chained to an elder (and thus chaos) and wants you to turn every mage over to the templars (and thus law).  Probably neutral good.

Sebastian is neutral good, I think. He approves of helping the apostates and bending the rules to do good. Heck, he's already breaking the rules by running around with Hawke, killing people. He approves of taking vengeance (hm, but not always, remember Bartrand). He will stand with you against the mages as well as the templars.

Anders strikes me as chaotic neutral.

Chaotic Neutral is called the "Anarchist" or "Free Spirit" alignment. A character of this alignment is an individualist who follows his or her own heart, and generally shirks rules and traditions. Although they promote the ideals of freedom, it is their own freedom that comes first.Good and Evil come second to their need to be free, and the only reliable thing about them is how totally unreliable they are. Chaotic Neutral characters are free-spirited and do not enjoy the unnecessary suffering of others, but if they join a team, it is because that team's goals coincide with their own.

[hoorayforicecream]

I'd say that Sebastian is lawful good with neutral leanings, as evidenced by this banter with Fenris:
* Sebastian: It's our duty to tell the templars.
* Fenris: Then why haven't you done it?
* Sebastian: I guess I was hoping they'd come to it on their own.
* Fenris: And then you wouldn't have to betray Hawke's friends, right?
* Sebastian: That's not reason enough to allow a maleficar to walk free.

If Anders is in the party:

* Anders: You think the templars don't know I'm here? They just haven't caught me yet.

If Merrill is in the party:

* Merrill: Are you talking about me?
* Sebastian: Which of us should do it? Shall we draw lots?
* Fenris: Uh-uh. You want to turn them in, you work it out with Hawke.

Isabela in acts 1 and 2 is Chaotic Neutral. Depending on the relationship to Hawke, this can change to Chaotic Good in act 3 (100% rivalry).

[Super_Fr33k]

Fenris' alignment is difficult to pin down, because he is so conflicted and so obsessed with revenge that consistent, long-term moral behavior is difficult for him. I lean towards him being lawful neutral, however. He consistently believes that order, and security, are more important than freedom, though he believes the powerless or innocent should never be denied their freedom. As best we can tell, he favors the Chantry system, and the need for a Circle. I don't think it's logical to call him lawful towards mages and chaotic towards other things. As another supporting detail, I don't think a neutral or chaotic person would feel as much connection to or respect for the Qunari as Fenris does. Recall, in his conversation with the Arishok, that he seems willing to kill the dwarf merchant chasing gaatlok simply because the Qun might demand it. I think his time as a slave made it difficult for him to truly appreciate individuality, which is chaotic. He seems a person who craves structure, only in a way that validates him and gives him respectability, which is contrary to the structure of slavery.

Varric I definitely see as chaotic good. He has so much disregard for law and tradition that I don't just see him as neutral. Anders is also difficult to classify. I think he starts out as chaotic good, but shifts more toward chaotic neutral in the end game, as he pursues rebellion despite how many lives it costs.

[SkittlesKat96]

This is all pretty spot on, although I'd say Aveline leans more towards Lawful good, but sometimes she isn't like that and can be pretty neutral.

Also I'd say Sebastian sort of starts off as being a mix between neutral good and lawful good.

[Speakeasy13]

Pretty similar to my erstimation, except with Carver. I don't think he can be qualified as "good", more like true neutral or maybe lawful neutral (altho he didn't turn in Mage Hawke even as a Templar); Notice he didn't feel much loss about losing an Apostate sister; nor did he felt like he needed to take sides in the Mage/Templar dichotomy. His reasons for identifying with Templars has more to do about conevenice (same with with the Wardens) and showing up his 'gifted' siblings. He struck me as someone who is self-centered and tries too hard to prove himself at the same time.

[TobiTobsen]

What exactly makes Sebastian Lawful Good? The man is all talk and no action. In my eyes Sebastian fits the TVtropes category "lawful stupid" much better.

He just follows what the chantry dictates (and in my eyes that religion is not really lawful good in the first place). The guy would even turn in his own companions, that probably helped him to find the murderer of his family, just because they are mages. He disapproves of using blood magic to save Hawkes mother from a killer, just because the chantry says it's evil. He would turn any mage over to the abusive templars. But the main problem with him is the fact that he has hilarious mood swings and has to constantly flog himself to not drift back into his old chaotic neutral behavior.

Nuh-uh. Varric is clearly Chaotic Good, he secretly has a heart of gold - he helps Merril and Anders not to get into trouble.

But his kindness doesn't extend to ppl he unrelated to him. He's more concerned with diplomacy and own survival than helping others.

Keep in mind that good doesn't equal 'good' and evil doesn't equal bad. We tend to label a character good because we like em more. But philosophically I don't see Varric (my favorite character in DAII) as more good than, say, Sebastian (which bored the s**t out of me).

Hawke: You should totally remain a brother of the chantry. It's the right thing to do.
Sebastian: You are right, I shouldn't have waffled. I will continue to help you and then dedicate my life to the chantry once again.
Hawke: We should help those mages there.
Sebastian: Yes, they are innocents and deserve mercy.
Hawke: *does shady anti-Chantry stuff, kills people left and right and feels morally superior and totally awesome*
Sebastian: Hawke, you shouldn't be doing this. You're going too far.
Hawke: LULZ CHANTRY PUPPET!

Hawke - chaotic stupid since 2011.

Oh I'm quite sure he is lawful. But just in talk, because there is no action to back it up  Maybe we should create a new alignment for Sebastian:

Lawful-Apathetic

[Wulfram]

I'd put Fenris as Chaotic Neutral. He supports controls on mages because he believes the alternative is the tyranny of mages. And because he hates them.
His comment when he's in the Viscount's palace shows he is far from supportive of authority in general.

[Turnip Root]

I forgot about that scene with Aveline. Still, I think that encounter with the Arishok and the two Qun converted elves was pretty convincingly en example of a lawful neutral character.

[Kimberly Shaw]

OP is way off on some.

Varric is Neutral Good or Chaotic Good. He has no use for laws as long as the good is upheld.

Anders is definitely chaotic--laws are meant to be broken in his eyes, but good characters would not sacrifice innocents to get their goals. I think Chaotic Neutral is best fitting.

Fenris is True Neutral or even Neutral Evil; I kind of view him the same alignment as Raistlin from Dragonlance while he wore red robes. His killing of the fog warriors sort of takes the good away from him, but he doesn't go out of his way to be evil.

Aveline would be lawful neutral. She values laws and order above all else. Although lawful good could work as well.

Merril would be chaotic good in my opinion, she has no use for the ways and customs of her people and just wants to do good at all costs (blood magic, the mirror).

Bethany is Neutral Good.

Isabella seems Neutral Evil or True Neutral to me. She is out for herself most of all.

[ReallyRue]

Aveline fits Lawful Neutral well. To me, the 'good' parts (like approving of killing Kelder) prove she is not lawful stupid, not show that she is Lawful Good.

Umm I guess your estimates of Fenris, Aveline and Bethany can work too. I can definitely see Fenris as evil, seeing how he hates innocent mages for no justified reason at all; Bethany isn't a rebel but probably isn't lawful either considering how hard she tries to get away from the Circle.

- I still don't see Varric as good, see my previous post.

- Anders is good, at least in that self-righteous sense: anyone who puts others' well-being above their own is good, however twisted their logic is; after all it's not like he took pride or joy in killing innocents.

- Merrill is more neutral than chaotic, she doesn't actively defies the established order - she just doesn't obeys all of em when she doesn't see fit.

- Isabela may be neutral (definitely not good); but her 'out for herself'-ness is more out of her chaotic tendency and general hedonism than evil I think; After all she does have morals as in 1) she opposes slavers even when it's to her best interest; and 2) she looks out for her friends no less than, say Varric; I don't see her as less good than Varric.

Yep. Chaotic good mostly.

I think Varric is rather 'good' than 'neutral'. Chantry or Circle does not concern him because he is a dwarf. I would say neutral good.

Isabela-Chaotic Neutral.  Like Varric, Isabela is also a thrill seeker but she also has an alterior motive, to get her ship back.  She is loyal enough to her friends as to not do anything overtly evil for her own benefit but what benefits her still comes first.

I am somewhere between chaotic neutral and chaotic good. She has better days and worse.

Merrill-Neutral Good.  Merill truly wishes to do good and perhaps because she is simply naive does not see the use of blood magic as being inherently evil.  She lacks the independence to be chaotic good and actually laments not being part of the Dalish community.  Merrill is a follower but doing what she thinks is right still comes first.

Agree. Even if maybe a tendency to being chaotic at times.

Sebastian-Lawful Good.  He sees the chantry as a force of righteousness and benevolence and feels that it's laws and customs are the best ways to achieve and promote goodness to the world.  He's fully dedicated to the chantry, so much so that he'll even refuse to believe they can do anything wrong and will justify it with an excuse such as the maker working in mysterious ways and other such dogma.

Self-righteous more likely. I would put him in the lawful neutral drawer.

Aveline-Lawful Neutral.  Aveline is a woman of justice whose primary concern is with enforcing the law and ensuring stability in the volatile political climate of Kirkwall.  She does have a set of morals but she does not believe law breaking is justified even if the law breaker may have good intentions.  We saw such an example when confronting the Arishok about the two criminal Elves who had converted to the Qun.  Aveline felt they had to turn themselves in even though she sympathized with their rationale somewhat.

I would say lawful good. With a tendency to neutral good because she tends to take the law in her own hands.

Fenris-Lawful Neutral.  You'd think Fenris would adopt a Chaotic Good viewpoint after having lived as a slave but even despite his former slavehood he still recognizes and firmly believes in the importance in maintaining order, in particular with the Circle of magi.

Now that's a tough one. Mostly he is sort of traumatized and an anti mage. Does he care for laws? Only if they help him. I'd say true neutral with a tendency to neutral good.

Bethany-Lawful Good.  Bethany has a kind heart who believes in fighting evil in whatever form in may come in, but at the same time, even as a mage she recognizes the importance of the circle and she's the structure of such an organization in being important in not just preventing demonic possessions but also in the utilization of mage talents for good.

Agree. I could add boring but oh well.

Carver-Neutral Good.  Carver looks up to his brother/sister as either a friend or a rival and aspires to be a hero.  He doesn't feel particularly bound to the Grey Wardens being that he became one by chance but he doesn't mind being one since it allows him to pursue his dream of being a true hero.
Whatever helps Carver achieve his dream of being a hero is what matters most to him and if it means working alone or working with a legitimate authority, so be it.

I think chaotic good. He does have a good heart but his actions are mostly focused on stepping out of his brother/sister's shadow. I am not sure how serious he is about the law. Even becomming templar seems more due to the fact that Hawke is a mage.

Dog-True Neutral.  What his master likes, he likes.  So long as he gets a belly rub and leftover nug from supper.

Lol.

Hawke-Hawke can be lawful good, chaotic good, chaotic neutral, lawful neutral, or neutral evil depending on how you play him.

Neutral good. My Hawke at least. Fighting the good fight even against the law if necessary.

I don't think it works well, DA characters are too complicated but I'll edit my opinion in your post in bold.

[Maria Caliban]

Aveline is Lawful Good. Laws are a means to an end for her. She has a fierce need to help and protect others.

[Crossroads_Wanderer]

 I don't think any of the characters in the game are perfectly good or evil, but some do have strong leanings. All of the characters at some point or another do something questionable, so the good characters aren't purely good. The evil characters are usually well-meaning or not in control of their actions, though evil in D&D is generally defined more by the means that the intent, so I suppose it's easier to accurately label someone as evil.

Anyway:

Aveline: Lawful Neutral. She wants law and order above all, and beyond that, she seems rather apathetic. Take the case of the murdered women: she doesn't pursue the case because no one is handing her evidence that she thinks is good enough. She is content with the fact that some crime will happen, as she doesn't necessarily pursue all the criminals that she is able to pursue. Some of this is pragmatism, but good isn't easy; there is a certain element of risk and self-sacrifice in being good, which she doesn't exhibit. She certainly approves of Hawke doing good things, but that in itself does not make her good.

Varric: Chaotic Neutral. He operates on a profit/glory motive and flaunts the law. He is protective of his friends, but otherwise fairly apathetic. In the end of the game, he is reluctant to side with the mages, seemingly because he thinks the likelihood of failure is greater. Some will argue that the templars are the better option (I disagree), but his motive on its own is not a good one (not to say that it’s bad or evil, either, just not good).

Bethany: Neutral Good. She flaunts laws that she thinks are wrong, such as the law that requires her to become part of the circle. Overall, though, she is mostly law-abiding. She is one of the few characters in the game who doesn't do anything questionable (as far as I can recall), and she seems to want to do good things, though we don't really see enough of her personality to really tell. So I suppose it's possible she's True Neutral, but I'm going to lean to NG.

Carver: I haven't seen a lot of him, as I've only played one game with him so far and he died in it, but what I saw pegged him as True Neutral for me. He can be a bit petty in his jealousy over his older sibling, but he doesn't do anything outright evil. He seems to want nothing more than to improve his lot in life, but not in a ruthless manner. I don't know if he changes from this if he lives.

Anders: He's a tough one. I think Anders without Justice is Chaotic Good, but Justice without Anders is Neutral, maybe NG at first (he follows a sort of moral law, but not necessarily human law, so that's why he's not lawful). That's a bit of a personality clash, and I think Anders ends up being all over the place. At the beginning of the game, when he is running his free clinic, I'd say he's Chaotic Good. Justice doesn't seem to have much to say at that point, maybe because Anders doesn't really have the means to effect change by himself. Even after he begins to become a revolutionary, I think he is still Chaotic Good because he is working for the greater good and he doesn't do anything really objectionable at this point. There are moments where his alignment can be called into question before the Chantry bombing, such as when he looks positively on turning Fenris over to Danarius. I don't know if that alone knocks him into Neutral on the Good-Evil axis, as he isn't the one who actually makes the decision. From what I have heard, if you rivalmance Anders, you can see the split personalities of Anders and Justice. In that case, I think each needs to be judged separately, though I don't know how obvious who does what is. It's hard to say whether he has that same split personality issue from the friendship stance. It seems likely, as his character shouldn't be radically different from game to game, but I couldn't say for sure. So I'll have to settle on saying that, if he and Justice are truly one, they become Chaotic Neutral by the end of the game, while, if they are separate, I think they retain the alignments I mentioned at the beginning of the paragraph, N and CG.

Fenris: Neutral with strong Neutral Evil leanings. He is mostly out for himself and mostly not in a ruthless way, though his hatred of mages makes his actions border on ruthlessness when they are involved. I think Hawke mostly keeps him on the straight and narrow, with a few hiccups, on a rivalry path, but I don’t know how it plays out with friendship. I waffle a bit on whether the questionable actions he does commit make him evil, or whether they are simply screw-ups in an otherwise Neutral person. I tend to give him the benefit of the doubt, but I can see him  easily falling over the edge and becoming consumed by hatred.

Isabella: Neutral with moderate Neutral Evil leanings, but variable. She is out for herself, sometimes screws over others in the process, but also sometimes does good in the name of her own code of honor. Still, some of the disapproval points I get with her leave me scratching my head. She seems to approve of slavery, even though she released slaves, because every time I say something bad about slavery or slavers, I get disapproval points. She also had a hefty dose of responsibility in the war with the Qunari, which presumably lead to hundreds or thousands of deaths. She decided to hightail it out of there and not come back (in my game) even when the threat of war was imminent and she could have stopped it by handing over the text. I think that act shifted her toward evil, if she wasn’t there already, though I know that in other games, she does come back.

Merrill: Neutral Good. She wants what is best for her people and believes that her methods are not wrong. She is somewhat deluded in that regard, but her demon never actually makes her do anything blatantly evil. I didn’t let her finish the mirror, so I don’t know how that would have played out, but she remains relatively good and innocent throughout the game on my first playthrough.

Sebastian: I just got him for the first time, so I don’t know his character very well yet, but, considering that his initial motive is vengeance, I have a hard time seeing him as good. He seems more the preachy type who sits back and expects good things to happen by faith alone, though I can’t really say that for certain. If I am[/i] right, I’d call him Lawful Neutral.
