Jack Sheppard - OOC notes

Notes on the CN alignment:

I can't believe I forgot this in my original submission, as I'm the one who promotes the terminology.  :D  I'd consider Jack to be a Chaotic Neutral, as opposed to a Neutral Chaotic.

Jack is predominantly Neutral (G/E) -- as in, Jack is in it for Jack.  He's very much an individualist, and generally has little use for others, but not to the point of being particularly cruel or abusive.  His darker tendencies are balanced by his belief in charity toward the truly needed.  He will also be nice to those he perceives as friends (e.g., he tries to be on his best, polite behavior around Clover) -- while in some cases it's an ingratiating act, in others (such as the case with Clover), it's genuine.

His tie to Chaos over law is generally more of convenience than conviction.  He grew up in a reasonably law-abiding manner, but through hunger, disease, and desperation turned to a life of thievery.  Still, if he finds a path in life that will benefit himself that requires a more Neutral, or even Lawful approach, he's going to take it.
