	The only example of True Neutral I can think of is (Captain) Jack Sparrow. Is he a good guy? No, he does some wicked things. Is he a bad guy? Well, he does a surprising number of good things. He's certainly not Lawful Neutral, but I don't think he's Chaotic Neutral, either: he is perfectly willing to strike a deal with the navy, the East India Company, and the crown to get what he wants. The fact that I can't imagine him ''being unwilling to cooperate with authority to achieve his ends'' indicates to me that he's True Neutral, not Chaotic Neutral. Now contrast that with someone like Deadpool, whom I believe is certainly Chaotic Neutral.		The only example of True Neutral I can think of is (Captain) Jack Sparrow. Is he a good guy?
