If me means to literally consume/assimilate the entire universe on a physical level, Neutral or Chaotic Evil.

Otherwise, anywhere between Chaotic Neutral and Neutral Good, depending on his methods and motivations for doing what he's doing.
>>
>>43529081

Agree with this. Depends on what 'consume' means. If it's just to gather knowledge for its own sake, that's fairly neutral. If it destroys everything in the process that's something-evil.

Lawful something. His goals are essentially orderly.

Everyone is going to die in his plan, but by saying he could make the girl human it indicates that he could bring them back to life.

So what he does after he gets that power defines what he is. Leaning Neutral since he's not looking forward to everyone dying, he just doesn't give a shit

If you are willing to bring about the apocalypse for a selfish goal, you are evil regardless of whether or not you're taking sadistic pleasure in bringing about the apocalypse.

He's talking about Nox from Wakfu.

>>43530392

Nox was a character in the cartoon Wakfu. He was a villain who was convinced a time reset to fix something would justify any evil action he took in its pursuit, since the end result would be the same as if he had never done any of the evil things.

None of them or all of them. That picture isn't displaying the alignment of any character, so it's not enough to tell.

Lawful Good. His goals are clearly defined and orderly, and for the benefit of all.

>consume the universe

>>
>>43530392
Nox was a guy who neglected his family until they left him and then died in a freak accident. He deeply regretted his actions, and decided that he would fix them by reversing and rewriting time.

His logic was thus: Any evil act he performed was automatically justified by the fact that when he succeeded, nobody would remember/care what he did. That mindset is not, by itself, evil, but the sheer irresponsibility it creates is very much so.
>>
>>43530786
If he's talking literally, then maybe.

But he seems to be talking about knowledge, so his consuming of the universe would probably not have any adverse effects on people at large.
>>
>>43530786
Consume can also mean "take in" as in "observe."

>>43530779
So, say someone has come to the conclusion that there are far too many humans on the planet and the only way to avert global environmental cataclysm resulting in human extinction is to reduce the human population by 98%. This guy selects what he views as the world's best and brightest and shelters his chosen few as he sets into motion the deaths of 6.8 billion people in the name of saving the species. What alignment is this, in your mind?
>>
>>43530806
>That mindset is not, by itself, evil
In D&D terms it absolutely is. The end does not justify the means in D&D's alignment system, ever.

>>43531777
Biblical Satan or the more popular Miltonic Satan?

The former is Petty Chaotic Cunt. Not a lot of characterization.

Milton's Satan, which a lot of popular media builds off of, is still solidly in Evil, but there's a bit of complexity to it. He feels beholden to his underlings and he recognizes the destructive nature of his suicidal ambition (but isn't strong enough to stop himself; he's fucking addicted). His actions in Eden, though, are 100% FUCK YOU OLD MAN, so the refined image implied by those earlier traits is all but cancelled out. I'd say solidly NE, which is fitting for the most popular icon of evil.

Neutral evil.

Even if he were to fix the universe after its assimilation, he'd still be doing evil things because he wants power or knowledge. Even if he wants to create a new order system he's completely ignoring the one already in place because it doesn't suit his purpose.

A lawful evil character would work to change current law rather than just eat up the system, esentially infecting his essence into reality and eventually working from there.
A chaotic evil character would not care to rebuild as much, and would probably destroy multiple realities to create a more "open" alternative, one that suits personal taste, vastly different from current status quo.

Stupid Evil

This scenario pre-supposes the character has either the influence or the means to make the most powerful 2% of humanity go along with his retarded genocide as well as enough time to carry out said atrocity in time to avert global disaster, which would be at least a few decades.

During the space race both the USA and the USSR were giving comparative scraps to their agencies but the Reds still put a shuttle in orbit and NASA put dudes on the moon.

the top 2% of humanity focusing all their intellect, energy, and capital into long term space habitation instead of retarded mass murder could do achieve literal miracles.

Anyone who goes "welp better kill 7 billion innocent people to save humanity" doesn't have the worth to decide this species' fate

Wasn't that more or less the plot of Kingsmen? It was still pretty evil there as well as he was basically deciding that most everyone on the earth (except himself and anyone rich enough to afford a ticket out it) deserved to die for the planet humanity as a whole. Regardless of reasoning that's legendarily evil as your essentially deciding the fate of billions whom you deem as utterly expendable, worse yet is most of what he was basing it on could somewhat be seen as just sheer speculation. Lawful Evil, heavy emphasis on the evil.
>>
>>43530884
That would be evil, and chaotic in most cases (depending on the ways he wants to use to set the cataclysm in motion).
This situation reminds me a lot of the comic Block 109.
ww2 where England and USA have been nuked, full chemical and biological warfare between the nazis and the CCCP, a german general attemps a coup and decides to launch the nukes and ebola on both sides to stop the war, while putting some innocents civilians in vaults for reconstruction.He commits suicide with his men because they don't think they deserve to live in the new pure world.

This seems as good a place as any to ask this, at what level of obscure/no context should something like a stat me/what alignment thread be considered trolling? Should OPs give some context even for big name movies or should people be expected to do their own research on any topic they wish to post on?
>>
>>43537718
They shouldn't be trolling unless they're actually, you know... Trolling.

Shitposting though, they can definitely be considered shitposting. Probably inadvertant though, as the OPs assume everyone is familiar with the same media they are.

You do realize that in her original incarnation she had absolutely no idea what he was truly trying to do and only saw that he was going around killing millions and then reviving them as skeleton minions? She believes that Fortuna is an insane mass-murderer and rightfully so. There is also no reason for her to believe that he will actually succeeded, considering how much he has fucked up already.
