Editing Modron (section)

== Rogue Modrons ==
It happens rarely, but sometimes, Modrons go rogue (this can happen with other outsiders as well, but for some reason Modrons are the only ones where it happens enough for said exceptions to be notable). They start to develop a personality and a mind of their own, becoming distinctive beings rather than interchangeable cogs. Only Modrons of at least quadrone rank seem to be capable of going rogue; the lower three castes are simply too mindless to develop that level of a sense of self. Modrons typically seek to destroy these rogues whenever they appear in order to return their essence to the logic-pool for recycling, fearing either their contamination of the Modron race or their depletion of the Modron logic-pool.

The most awesome modron ever is probably Nordom, the "backwards Modron", from [[Planescape: Torment]], who is an iconic example of a rogue.  Rogue modrons are the most frequent source of modron PCs, being capable of self-interest and a certain amount of free will.  They ''must'' be of lawful alignment (being only "chaotic" in relation to other modrons), and their brains tend to melt when they attempt to interact with chaotic people.
