Probably the displacer b is neutral becouse he kills all living things without distintionsor discriminations.

But so do chaotic evil demons etc surely?

My theory is that they put all animal IQ-level creatures into the neutral (no motivation because no cognitive ability for alignment), but overstated the creature's cruelty.

You are right.

The old monster compendium was full of good stuff.

Hell, I think I will use some displacer beasts in my next d&d sesion.
