Also, I apologize if I gave off the impression with Trok in the other game that *all* Chaotic Neutral characters are insane. It just happens to be a serious subset of the group, not simply all encompassing. Also, I have noticed when talking to others that Chaotic Neutral seems to be an alignment of choice as it allows for maximum free choice in any given situation, whereas if your character was good, evil or particularly lawful you would be restricted to those choices when deciding how to play your character. Furthermore, I noticed that despite choosing that alignment, most people just end up playing in a manner similar to Neutral Good.
One final bit, that I'd recommend particularly for you. I have found that playing a character clearly outside my actual alignment (if I were a DnD character, I'd be toeing the line between neutral and chaotic good) to be far more interesting to play. For someone like yourself, who is extremely well versed in opposing schools of thought, I think you'd particularly enjoy playing something outside the norm.
Austin and revhemp, I just wanted to remind you both that with your alignment you should be looking out for number one at all times. Not to affect your style of play, as I'm sure you have an idea in mind already, but remember that the campaign here is going to be going on for months (approaching a year on the other games!) and it's tough to always keep your character consistent. Just try to make sure that your guy sticks to being self-centered, and the rest should fall in line. Oh, and don't let the good guys boss you around!
