Re: Good and Evil
I started this to see if people agree with me or how they play fable, but do you think this is true?
1.a good person- strives to make the world more harmonious by lessoning the burdens of those around them
More curious is evil for this is what I find evil to be
2 an evil person- makes their purpose in life to be following the ways of serving oneself, challenge one's station in life, and work to become self-reliant.
For example in Fable II Victor wanted Lady Gray to an unhealthy extent, and so I married her thinking it would force him to get out more and to stop being controlled by a woman dead for 500 years. I did this and it was counted as evil, why I did it for the greater good.

Good is common as an adverb in informal speech, especially after forms of do: He did good on the test. She sees good with her new glasses. This use does not occur in formal speech or edited writing, where the adverb well is used instead: He did well on the test. She sees well with her new glasses.
The adjective good is standard after linking verbs like taste, smell, look, feel, be, and seem: Everything tastes good. The biscuits smell good. You're looking good today. When used after look or feel, good may refer to spirits as well as health: I'm feeling pretty good this morning, ready to take on the world. Well is both an adjective and an adverb.
