Nah, Lawful Evil is for characters who like a well-ordered system because they can exploit it, in order to do things like hurt people or gain power at the expense of others. Abusive cops, for instance, are lawful evil.

Jasper doesn't want to support the system because it gives her a framework in which to abuse anyone, she wants to support it for its own sake. That's Lawful Neutral, if anything.

I don't want her to be a fluffball, and haven't had much contact with other fans who want that, either. There's no reason she can't keep being a big tough growly brawler, who just happens to be punching on the side of the reformers now.

That's... not any way close to any definition of lawful evil I've ever heard.

Wikipedia, citing Dungeons & Dragons Player's Handbook. (3rd ed.), defines it as the following:

"A lawful evil character sees a well-ordered system as being easier to exploit and shows a combination of desirable and undesirable traits. Examples of this alignment include tyrants, devils, and undiscriminating mercenary types who have a strict code of conduct."

And d20 SRD includes phrases like this:

"A lawful evil villain methodically takes what he wants within the limits of his code of conduct without regard for whom it hurts. He cares about tradition, loyalty, and order but not about freedom, dignity, or life.

[...] he depends on order to protect himself from those who oppose him on moral grounds.

[...] Some lawful evil people and creatures commit themselves to evil with a zeal like that of a crusader committed to good. Beyond being willing to hurt others for their own ends, they take pleasure in spreading evil as an end unto itself."

All of which sounds awfully close to "characters who like a well-ordered system because they can exploit it, in order to do things like hurt people or gain power at the expense of others."
