Chaotic Good is known as the "Beatific" or "Rebel" alignment. A Chaotic Good character favors change for a greater good, disdains bureaucratic organizations that get in the way of social improvement, and places a high value on personal freedom, not only for oneself, but for others as well. They always intend to do the right thing, but their methods are generally disorganized and often out of alignment with the rest of society.

They may create conflict in a team if they feel they are being pushed around, and often view extensive organization and planning as pointless, preferring to improvise.

Chaotic Good is the moral opposite to Chaotic Evil, which is for villains that are sadistic and chaotic by nature. The true polar opposite is Lawful Evil, which is for villains who are evil yet follow a strict code. They are the ethical opposite of Lawful Good.

Plenty of Chaotic Good characters could be able to fit into the Pure Good category as long as they have a moral agency code that is considered selfless and has a well knowing between right and wrong (e.g. Tari, John Coffey, Sam Sparks, Papyrus, Superboy, Mavis Dracula, Tanjiro Kamado, Po, Luz Noceda, Kimberly Ann Hart, Compa, and SCP-999).
