Useless Chaotic Neutral* git.

Still… dang, but I’d like to have that on my wall. As would half the people reading this, of course. They should do a print.

*Can’t be Good, obviously: he’d be fighting the dragon otherwise. Can’t be Chaotic Evil, because he’d have thrown a dagger at the mage. Lawful Evil would understand the concept of “kill dragon, then loot” better than this. True Neutral is for people who can’t make up their minds. So it’s Neutral Evil or Chaotic Neutral, and robbing a dragon that isn’t dead yet and is maybe about to eat the rest of your party sounds quintessentially CN to me, ayup.
Want!

Now, I’ve opportunistically scooped up a macguffin, item of great power, or item of great personal importance while the party was “distracting” the big bad. But you do it quickly, discretely, and get right back into the action. (Well, unless you’re about to throw the item of great power to another party member who is better able to use it. Then you can be a bit flashy.)

But filling a sack with gold while your companions are fighting for their lives? If the dragon doesn’t kill you, your companions will. I’m pretty sure the alignment is Chaotic Stupid, the alignment favored by murderhoboes everywhere.
Larry Elmore sells his prints, directly. Heard him talk at a con once, if you get the opportunity to hear him on a topic you’re even vaguely interested in I recommend it.
One warning: some of his pictures feature scantily clad women, in comic book poses. Might be too racy for work:
