Breh the very first sentence contradicts what you're saying. If you really believe Chuck would let someone die because saving them is illegal then he's lawful evil.
That is Chuck. He cares about the prestige of being a lawyer and what it means to be a partner at the law firm but not about his own brother. And it's not even about "well, I think Jimmy would misuse the law". That would be noble. It's about "everyone loves Jimmy and what comes easily to him I have to struggle for". And nobody can call him out because he hides behind the word of the law. Even during his rant on Monday he couldn't keep it law related....he had to mention everyone loved Jimmy more when he was 9.
That makes him evil. Not like, Marlo Stansfield evil but enough to rank on one of these charts. Everything he does is justified by "well, it's the law" which leads to completely over the top moments like correcting how much money Jimmy owed over the cassette tape.
Lastly the source material you're quoting is from the 70's and 80's. The definition for lawful evil (or any alignment, really) is a lot broader in the later editions. Gus and Chuck can both be lawful evil and nowhere near each other morally.
If I get time later on I'll pull up the 4.5E stuff.
Fred.
we'll just have to agree to disagree breh. if someone cares about law over saving someones life = lawful, there is no evilness employed ;you can create thousands of instances where a person wouldnt care about breaking a law over helping to save a life- it doesnt make them evil. youre viewing saving a life as a purely good thing- I dont. hell, most existential thinking would then be evil since theyre agnostic about helping to save a life, which is nonsense.
yea chuck has some jealousy towards jimmy, but ironically enough, EVERYTHING hes stated fact-wise during his rant was true, despite whatever excuses and circumstances.
did jimmy steal the cash from his gullible ass pops ? yes he did
did jimmy stage the incident on film ? yes he did
did jimmy defecate through the sunroof ? yep
did jimmy fudge the numbers in order to get Kim mesa verde ? yes he did.
did people not believe jimmy would do all these things ? yep
the only thing chuck said that was false is that he wasnt crazy. he has a mental problem with electricity.
