   Quick question, is the #DungeonsAndDragons alignment system covered by Copyrighted?

   I mean, if you look at it, it's basically just an idea or common sense.

   Lawful Good - Lawful Neutral - Lawful Evil
   Neutral Good - True Neutral - Neutral Evil
   Chaotic Good - Chaotic Neutral - Chaotic Evil

   Those are just generic words. A concept.

   Then again, it's WotC, if they don't like you for whatever reason, they'll go after you. 😅😅

   #DnD #Copyright

     @arnelson Ahhh! That's great! I like the D&D alignment system, it's simple and easy to understand. At least a good starting point for character development.

     @youronlyone Most of the core D&D rules (the "d20 SRD") are open-source, under the Open Game License. This is why systems like Pathfinder can copy most of the core mechanics and terms.
