What moment, in game or canon, would you say is your character's highest point? The time they acted the most heroically or bravely, or just the time they showed some basic human decency.

What moment, in game or canon, would you say is your character's lowest point? The time they acted the most villaniously or cruelly, or just the one time they made a really awful decision.

How does your character consider their own morality?

Monster
- (canon) I'd say when he rescues O-Chul (& V), although that's questionable since he didn't do it on purpose.
- His earliest appearances, perhaps. Or the incident with the watching of dwarves. Or a few instances of apathy, which leads me into --
AS NICE AS THE MONSTER IS, HIS MORALS ARE QUESTIONABLE. He's more like a child - he understands that Good and Evil are things (he lives in a world with an alignment system) but doesn't fully understand right and wrong. He has his own weird morality that affects his own actions (ie not using his abilities to escape from the circus and hurt the guards because that'd be "rude"), but at the same time he can be remarkably apathetic and disconnected from other people's actions. As well as his own! He doesn't fully understand (or WANT to understand) the consequences of his actions. He mostly just does what he's told to without really thinking about the Right and Wrong of it. So in other words - he doesn't think about his morality at all --

except for recently.

Calendar Man
- http://imgur.com/P8gTB (this moment) - when he refuses to shoot Batman because he knows they're in the wrong. He never wanted the hostages to die.
- his lowest moment is uh LIVING IN HOLIDAY'S WALLS AND TRYING TO GET HIM TO COMMIT SUICIDE...
Calendar Man has his own set of morals and he views them as more important than other peoples - he does have rules and there are lines he doesn't cross -- normally. I COULD GO ON FOREVER BUT I HAVE TO GO SOON BUT TRUST ME WHEN I SAY I HAVE FEELINGS ABOUT THIS

Pherson
- er
- killing a bunch of people all the time
Pherson made his own morality after he got his powers based partly on what the Creators told him to do, and partly on his view that animals > people, and so he views violence against animals as an excuse to use violence against humans, since humans don't matter. He believes he's in the right, always.

Sentinel Prime
- He has his moments! Particularly when he wanted to go back for Elita-1, even if that meant fighting spiders, even if it was dangerous. Also there's a couple moments when he's willing to sacrifice himself in order to save others.
- THERE'S ALSO THAT TIME HE HIRED A BOUNTY HUNTER. OH AND WHEN HE WAS GONNA KILL ONE OF HIS OLDEST FRIENDS BECAUSE HE CLAIMED SHE GOT TURNED INTO A FREAK and was no longer the same person and yeahhhh
Sentinel makes poor life choices

SENTINEL ASSUMES HE IS ALWAYS RIGHT AND EVERYONE ELSE IS WRONG wow this is turning into a theme with my characters. Essentially, killing is wrong! Being a decepticon is wrong! He uh, is willing to sacrifice people and people's freedoms for the Autobot Cause (and also his own cause), and constantly justifies his decisions. :/
