The original version of D&D allowed players to choose among three alignments when creating a character: lawful, implying honor and respect for society's rules; chaotic, implying rebelliousness and individualism; and neutral, seeking a balance between the extremes.
The 1977 release of the Dungeons & Dragons Basic Set introduced a second axis of good, implying altruism and respect for life, vs evil, implying selfishness and no respect for life. As with the law-vs-chaos axis, a neutral position exists between the extremes. Characters and creatures could be lawful and evil at the same time (such as a tyrant), or chaotic but good (such as Robin Hood).
The two axes allowed for nine alignments in combination. The nine alignments can be shown in a grid, as follows:

The original version of D&D allowed players to choose among three alignments when creating a character: lawful, implying honor and respect for society's rules; chaotic, implying rebelliousness and individualism; and neutral, seeking a balance between the extremes.
The 1977 release of the Dungeons & Dragons Basic Set introduced a second axis of good, implying altruism and respect for life, vs evil, implying selfishness and no respect for life. As with the law-vs-chaos axis, a neutral position exists between the extremes. Characters and creatures could be lawful and evil at the same time (such as a tyrant), or chaotic but good (such as Robin Hood).
The two axes allowed for nine alignments in combination. The nine alignments can be shown in a grid, as follows:
good and evil. Those allied with the US are good and everyone else to one degree or another is evil. “You are either with us or against us;” neutrality is not an option. But this good/evil Manichean ideology has two tragic consequences.

... against Iran.</p><p>Until now.</p><p>Caught between what they perceive as two evils, Riyadh and other Arab nations in the Persian Gulf are now whispering neutrality with Iran.
Have they become too indifferent or fearful that evil ... The PNP is used as their evil instrument to extract rents from the local economies and neutralize opponents to protect their criminal enterprises.
... actions in the Middle East on Thursday, attempting to justify the conflict by framing it as a fight against "evil" forces threatening Israel ... "Neutrality in the face of evil is evil," he stressed.
CNN — ... The big question now is. Will it escalate, or cool? ... The former senior Israeli military official explained that “there are always schools of thought.” Bennett’s, according to the official, is that “it’s time to neutralize the whole axis of evil.
They will probably stick to a deal that is made, but you can be certain they don’t have your best interests in mind when they make it Neutral Evil – Neutral Evil characters are very selfish and may not care if they turn against their allies.
