As well, all the posts i've seen you make are flame posts, barely if at all constructive.

I am kinda against aligned a bit if only because it implied good and evil when the Spheres could be completely unrelated to them.

Alright... well I am not in the mood currently... but Ill tally the serious responses into a list and we can chose from them

It is due to Dungeons and Dragons (and games based off of Dungeons and dragons and any others which are unrelated but still use the term "Alignment" such as I think Fable 2) so yeah...

Which is a big part of the DF community anyhow.

The name shouldn't confuse people new to dwarf fortress

On dev_next:

#  I.B: Remove good/evil regions and add more specific associations instead, requires some of the Creature Improvements below to flesh it out (part of Core94)

Associative Domains

Yeah, too technical sounding.  But the dev_next item above inspired me.
