What is Alignment?
Alignment is a measure of your character`s moral balance within the Darkeden world. It represents your character`s ethical stance, ranging from Very Evil (-10,000) to Very Good (10,000), with Neutral in the middle.
Alignment value is changed by killing characters of the same race as yours: if you kill an Evil player, your alignment will increase, while if you kill a neutral+ player your alignment will decrease.
Please note that certain maps may exempt alignment penalties, indicated by Free PK zone messages.
