Alignments of bosses in Planescape Torment

Out of interest, I looked up the alignments of certain characters according to the internal game data of Planescape Tornment today. First, I wanted to know Ravel's alignment, as I assumed she would fall somewhere within the evil spectrum; however, I wasn't sure if she would be lawful evil, neutral evil, or chaotic evil. So, I checked and found out that Ravel is actually just neutral. Afterward, I did the same for the other bosses, Trias and the Transcendent One, and both are also neutral.

I thought about it, and it does make sense for Trias and the Transcendent One at least, since Trias is a machiavellian and the "Transcendent One" is driven solely by an absolute instinct for survival. But I would still categorize Ravel as clearly evil.

What do you think? Were the alignments of the bosses left neutral as placeholders by the developers, or were they chosen deliberately with a specific justification?

I confess... I kissed Ravel and I liked it

I kissed a hag and I liked it

The taste of her rotten ChapStick

I kissed a hag just to try it

I hope Annah don't mind it

It felt so wrong, it felt so right

Don't mean I'm in love tonight

I kissed a hag and I liked it

No, I don't even know my name

It doesn't matter

You're my experimental game

Just human nature

It's not what good incarnations do

Not how they should behave

My head gets so confused

Hard to obey
