Category: PHB Series

Wazzup Poptropicanos, it’s LJ here, and just as the title suggests, I’ve got a few pretty neat Poptropica alignment charts to share with you—made by yours truly! 😃 This will be a series divided into three parts, taking place over the next several days. Today, we’ll be looking at a classic alignment chart. Enjoy!

The classic alignment chart template is a straightforward 3×3 grid that evaluates the morality of characters from TV shows, video games, and various pop culture sources. It combines good, neutral, and evil with lawful, neutral, and chaotic along several axes to form distinct categories. If you’re a bit confused, don’t worry—you’ll likely catch on quickly after taking a look at the one I made below.🙂 Et voila!

😇 Good: Lawful, Neutral, Chaotic 😇

In the Lawful Good (top left) section, I placed myself (and all of you!). This alignment refers to those who prioritize goodness and respect for laws, and I think our character fits the bill perfectly.

In the Neutral Good and Chaotic Good categories (top center & top right), we find Jonas and Mya Wong. Neutral Good individuals are those who aim to do the right thing, even if it means occasionally stretching the rules a little bit. Meanwhile, Chaotic Good folks are those who are willing to challenge authority and even break rules for the sake of positive change.

I see these two kids as potentially interchangeable based on how you look at things. Ultimately, I chose Jonas for Neutral Good because, as the leader of the Protectors, he seems to stick to a set of rules more than Mya. To me, Mya seemed eager to help anybody and everybody, no matter the consequences, which is why I placed her in the Chaotic column. That said, they both have their moments that show they can be flexible in this area.

😐 Neutral: Lawful, Neutral, Chaotic 😐

Now, let’s talk about the row of characters who aren’t committed to heroism or villainy—the Neutral (middle) row. Kicking things off with Lawful Neutral, this type describes those who maintain order and law without a heavy moral stance. The Minotaur is a great example of this. He’s not purely evil or good; he assists us by giving us the ring we need, but only after we conquer his labyrinth and solve the snake puzzle.

In the very center, at the True Neutral (center) spot, is DJ Saturday Nite. People who embody true neutrality don’t lean heavily towards good or evil, law or chaos, and often seem indifferent during conflicts between good and evil. Not caring would be an example. DJ Saturday Nite was absolutely the most chill citizen in Eastman, even with a full-blown zombie apocalypse happening around her.

Chaotic Neutrals are often characterized as wild spirits who resist authority and act on their own impulses. Salerno is incredibly determined and fixated on uncovering evidence of alien life, teetering on the edge of insanity—which is why she’s been placed here.

😈 Evil: Lawful, Neutral, Chaotic 😈

Finally, let’s discuss the evil (bottom) row. Starting in the left column, we have Black Widow as Lawful Evil. Lawful Evil is characterized by valuing order and structure but using those beliefs for selfish gain. Black Widow’s tactic of posing as a chief inspector to steal art and pin the blame on someone else makes her a great example of that in my opinion.

Next is Neutral Evil (center bottom), which I found a little tricky to nail down. From what I understand, it’s all about being malicious and greedy without any particular social alignment. It’s driven solely by self-interest, with no care for law or chaos. With this in mind, I went with Myron Van Buren who is both ruthless and calculated in his hunting obsession.

A chaotic evil (bottom right) individual is self-centered and disregards all rules, frequently exhibiting harmful and destructive behavior. Doesn’t this description perfectly fit the tyrannical and dictatorial Zeus? To be honest, I can’t think of a more fitting example. He attempted to conquer and dominate all of Poptropica not once, but TWICE, obliterating every island in the process.

Welp, there it is—part 1 of 3! I had a great time analyzing some Poptropica characters and figuring out their placements on this alignment chart. I must say though, I think I had even more fun with the next chart, so stay tuned for that. 😉

I hope you enjoyed the post! Thank you all for reading, and I’ll talk you guys soon. Pop on!
