I figure it’s a good time to discuss a character’s own morality and whatnot given the events going on in BFA!
Jab on his part is more Neutral Good than anything, remaining to lay low on his own opinions on the matter for now given the fierce war.
It really depends on who you ask, regarding Rekfar.
Alliance will outright call him Chaotic Evil, since he’s such a pain in the butt for them.
Horde would call him anywhere from lawful evil to chaotic good depending on you ask. He’s fairly tight into the Horde, but is fairly unapologetic about who he’ll clock upside the head if they’re acting dumb.

Hands down chaotic neutral to chaotic evil. She’s a pirate through and through, and doesn’t care about anyone other than those who are close to her.

Chaotic Neutral would probably be best to describe my worgen.
He’s a survivor. He’s been through some of the worst pits anyone can crawl out of, disillusioned with the Alliance as a whole, despises authority to a degree and prefers to keep to himself and remain in the wilds, for better or worse for his own mental health.
He is a soldier. Personal duties bind him and compel him forward, even with his disillusionment and disregard-slash-occasional antagonism to those in power he perceives is making the wrong choice. To stray from that path would be a disservice to his duty.
He is a weapon. He has no qualms in killing those who stand in the way of his goal, or serve as a threat to him. If someone challenges him, he often meets them with as much force as a weapon needs. He enjoys violence to an unhealthy degree, along with the act of killing someone he perceives as a threat. Every conflict serves to hone who he is and what he does.
Somewhere between True Neutral and Neutral Evil.
She’s rather self-centered as a general rule, with degrees of lawfulness and chaotic nature as it suits her in the situation. I think the thing that influences it as being Neutral rather than Good is that her cause is typically for herself or her people, and not for much else. She isn’t exactly striving to do the right thing for everyone, as long as what she cares about is ultimately better off, then that’s what she’ll pursue.
The elements that make her have some degree of Neutral Evil obviously come in with her methods and outlook on how far she is willing to go to achieve those goals, and at times she’s strayed far closer to the line between them than she has recently. Under proper guidance, she can find herself between the two, but left to her own devices, she’d probably fall to the worst of her Neutral Evil whims with time.
He’s swung from lawful good to chaotic good all the way down to chaotic neutral with a touch of evil, but personal growth has had him swinging back around to a neutral good alignment. He’s always one spiteful action away from going full chaotic, though.
She is lawful evil by all accounts, the magics she practices and her callous opinion of the living firmly sets her as evil.
The Alliance may see her as neutral or even chaotic evil. Where some in the Horde may even see her as a good person. She has a code she follows, but she’s also a Necromancer and a blood mage.

Pre-BFA Ao could be seen as True Neutral, because despite her neigh neurotic adherence to most laws and generally high moral standards, she was a practicing Warlock…and I can’t really justify anything more than one step in either direction from Chaotic Evil.
Burning evil souls is still burning souls and all that.
However, the past year, year and a half she’s pretty much put all that behind her and, barring sanctioned purely academic exploits, is no longer a practicing Warlock which bumps her up to (imo) Lawful Good, as her adherence to the law and high moral standards are no longer being held back.
Should, for whatever reason she start practicing Fel again? Definitely taking a hit to alignment. And some alignment penalties to boot.
Lawful Evil because of vampirism. No escaping that.
Eh… hard ta say. Bertha here… eh, Neutral Evil. Of sorts. She’s fairly nice to people, friendly, happy, but she also happens to still keep to some older Dark Iron values. Not that shebpublically expresses as such. Besides the evil part is more that she is
… utterly brutal. Exceedingly so. And she’s neutral because she lacks a zense of honor, and doesn’t mind fighting dirty. So… NG unless you give her a reason to fight you really.
On a much easier note, mg Horde main - Xie’chi Ironclaw - is Chaotic Good. She’s a monk yes, but you can’t call someone who mixes alchemy into their beer brews and is impulsive enough to not listen to instructions anything but Chaotic.
Wow, so much evil. Tyr skews chaotic good, definitely. She has no compunctions about killing if it needs to be done, but she doesn’t take pleasure in it and almost never kills without cause (there was that one time she went a little crazy, but there were reasons), and she never tries to inflict needless suffering (even when she went a little crazy). Quick and clean, and not just because taking your time about it gives them more time to turn the tables on you; she genuinely does not like others’ pain, even if they’re her enemies. She’ll obey the laws until they conflict with what she needs to do, but what she believes she needs to do trumps everything else. If she has to break the law to do the right thing or to stop someone from doing the bad thing, she doesn’t even take the law into consideration except insofar as she doesn’t plan to get caught.
Chaotic Stupid, when the situation demands it. Winning would be too easy otherwise.
Alternatively: Neutral Evil.

By the books, a vampire has to be lawful evil, though that is source dependent. We don’t have them and theirs in Warcraft like we do in my favoured folklore, so I cheesed it.
Nonlethal feeding is still indulging the curse, taking willing thralls is still enslaving people, and using the powers for good is still abuse of a fount born of an abomination that does not originate from the natural world.
While in Warcraft we do have hypothetically “good-aligned” undead, we also don’t have the same alignment system in place as D&D and most people might just be guessing. But it is also important to note that the most deeply rooted evil characters can do good actions by choice, and that isn’t unique to Warcraft.
Another important thing to note is that cannibalism, torture, excessive force, execution (excluding the death penalty, in certain settings), desecration of remains, vengeance, and related actions are objectively evil, and this is not necessarily true in Warcraft, it just usually is. Good characters quickly alignment swap if they take actions like this without remorse or repentance and there is no answer for regularly repeating them, while evil characters are typically brought up believing that is passable, but after the foundation is set, it’s many steps down and many, many more to climb back up.
Neutral good here. Coming from a chaotic neutral background, and working hard to be good, but complete and rigid law-abiding is maybe not his biggest concern.
Lawful Neutral appears to be the best fit for my character. As a Thornspeaker Druid, he believes that the laws and cycles of nature must be adhered to. Some may find aspects of nature cruel such as death, but he views it as a very important part of balance. Those who circumvent this cycle are abominations in his eyes. Order is paramount regardless of the perception of good and evil.
He believes all living creatures are bound by fate. Not a predetermined fate that is inescapable, but a path we set ourselves on through our own actions.
