UI (Unethical Immoral): Characters who are unethical and immoral actively dislike organization
and orderly behavior, and feel pleasure upon committing behavior opposed by society or the majority.
These characters are often considered by others to be dangerous, even to their own kind, and hunger only
for power.

Disposition, Specific
A player is not required to choose a specific
disposition, especially if a general disposition better
suits their character. However, sometimes detail
provides a richer role-playing experience. Potentially,
the more information available, the better the
quality of decisions. The way to read the following
notation is that a dominant general disposition is
claimed, but most metaphysical divergences from
this gravitate toward one different general disposition.
For example, EM w/EN should be understood
as Ethical Moral with strong tendencies toward
Ethical Neutral. When cross-tabulated, 40 specific
dispositions emerge. They are listed below:
EM w/EN: Predominantly, these characters
have impeccable ethical behavior and strong
moral views. However, when forced to choose between
ethics and morality, they usually choose ethics.
The consistency of their behavior is often very
important. While they prefer both ethics and morals,
these characters may realize that morality may
interfere with objectivity more than ethics. A
chivalric knight who occasionally disagrees internally
with their ethical code, yet continues to abide by it,
is an example of EM w/EN.

EM w/NM: These characters value both
ethics and morals, though occasionally a preference
for the greater good supercedes ethical codes. A
knight who occasionally breaks their ethical code to
do what they feel they know internally to be right
and moral is an example of EM w/NM.
EM w/NN: These characters believe that
ethics and morals are the ideal, but from time to
time both must be ignored to do things properly or
to continue functioning in such a way. These characters
are often called hypocrites. For example, a
knight may occasionally visit a bordello.
EN w/EM: Holding objectivity and consistency
above all other things, these characters often
have preferences for morality, when it does not
conflict. A stern judge with a good heart may be an
example of EN w/EM.
EN w/NM: While these characters believe
that objectivity and consistency reign supreme on a
daily basis, occasions do arise when the greater good
is more important. A judge that vehemently opposes
legislation for concentration camps or warfare,
nearly to the point of losing their professional
position, is an example of EN w/NM.
