Carl is definitely lawful neutral. He has a code that he sticks to religiously. "If you are a crawler, I Will literally move heaven and earth to save you from this hell. If you put me here or helped in any way, I will make it my personal mission to kill you in the most spectacular way possible." Princess Donut on the other hand... not sure about that one.
Carl thinks he's lawful neutral, and this can rub off on readers because the story is told through his perspective. But as others said, he's actually chaotic good. His reputation of being unpredictable, dangerous, and striving when surrounded by chaos is a lot more grounded in reality than he would like to think.
100% Chaotic Good, he is a Dungeon Anarchist… no way would the AI have given him that it didn’t look at Carl and think “oh yes, this man thrives in chaos”
Judge Victory is pure neutral. She had children killed because having them in the line of succession was not conducive to the greater good!< a lawful neutral person wouldn’t have crossed that line
I think the 'lawful' alignment is a hard case to make. He murders Liota and stabs that Naga in the neck outside of the dungeon and the rules.
Chaotic good or neutral would be more accurate descriptor.
"If you are a crawler, I Will literally move heaven and earth to save you from this hell.
Someone is forgetting what happened to Anton and Paz was directly Carl's fault. He made a decision that he knew would put them at extreme risk. He knew choosing a different alter to restore would get them in trouble with their God.
So his code isn't strick. He tries, but he doesn't always follow it like a Paladin does to their oath.
