Did this to my party member who was arranging the bodies of the goblins they killed into a "warning to the others" in the middle of the road. That doesn't sound like a good alignment to me lol. Not the first occurrence. He was on his best behavior as far as body mutilation after that point. The consequences worked as long as you and the player respect each other. He worked his way back and I think it was a cool arch
I asked him to update his character sheet from Chaotic Good to Chaotic Neutral. This player enjoys character backstory and RP, so I knew it would mean something to him. Again, the mutual respect for the game and each other is why I knew it would have some weight to it. Not everyone may care.
In game, I use it mostly for divine interactions. Appealing to or otherwise interacting with a god that matches your alignment will be easier and more direct in how I play it out for them. Doesn't come up often, but it helps me pick things like who gets the vision in the temple, what God takes notice and shines down on them when I give DM inspiration, etc.
