To chime in on the alignment discussion from a couple pages ago ...
I've never liked the D&D alignment system. It's too narrow and rigid. People are too complex and you can't fit everyone's actions into those definitions. Well written characters in games should also not fit which is why we see people pegging Solas into so many different alignments. If I had to I would put Solas into the Neutral spectrum (in respect to both law/chaos and good/evil) because morally he prefers helping people but he's also willing to get his hands bloody to do it and he's willing to do morally questionable things to help those he cares about and because while he prefers order as it prevents unnecessary suffering he will also lead a rebellion against established authority that causes suffering. I don't really think you can pin Solas down to any one set alignment though.
I also find it interesting that most people that responded put Vivienne in the Lawful Evil category. I agree actually but it's also kind of sad. She could have had a lot of depth but pretty much what you see is what you get with her. I liked her as a character (even if most of my characters weren't fond of her) but she was a bit one dimensional.
I agree that you can't put people into categories like that, real or fictional, and I actually feel that way about the MBTI system as well. It's a lot of fun to think about though, and I think it can sometimes be a useful tool for focusing on personality issues.

And Super Ghouls and Ghosts! and Super Mario, naturally.)
But then when we got a computer my parents realized that I liked games too and they started buying them for me as well! (I played Ragnarok Online a LOT.)
