Litany of the Dead/Riddle

Litany of the Dead Dragon Riddle
The Black Dragon will ask you 15 questions. They are always the same questions in the same order. The object is to answer the questions as if you were answering them as the boss you are trying to get to. For example if you were trying to get to Doomsphere you would answer the questions as if you were lawful good.

Alignments of bosses are;
 * Cinnis (Cinderspawn): Chaotic Evil
 * Cholthulzz (Doomsphere): Lawful Good
 * High Priest of Vol (Vampire): Lawful Evil
 * Mentau (Golem Maker): Chaotic Good

The riddle works as follows for alignments;
 * Q1-Q5: Good/Evil
 * Q6-Q10: Lawful/Chaotic
 * Q11-Q14: both Good/Evil and Lawful/Chaotic

You can miss one question on each part. To figure out Q11-Q14 look in PnP Player's Handbook for according alignments! That should help you answer all the questions.
