      >agent for a government if modern
      Wouldn't that mean he just collects CP while claiming to be working cyber security?

      The Peacekeeper from For Honor, for example, covers both of these. Peacekeepers are typically kept on retainer on the homefront and are dispatched to silence threats external or domestic - especially domestic - that would threaten the security of the land. If a Peacekeeper is seen on the front lines of a conflict, that means something must have gone very wrong.

      A "Lawful Good rogue" would most likely be an agent of the state - a spy, if you will.

    Indiana Jones later in his career. Back during Raiders of the Lost Ark and Temple of Doom he was more Chaotic Neutral with strong Good tendencies, but by The Last Crusade he seems to have become pretty Lawful and undoubtedly good.

          Goldfinger-Pussy Galore was a lesbian
          Dr No-Dr No had a giant squid Bond stabbed in the eye with a makeshift spear and he killed Dr No by burying him in Guano.
          Man with the Golden Gun-Scaramanga almost killed Bond during their duel with a bullet laced with cobra venom. Bond tried to kill M in the beggining after being brainwashed by KGB after he went missing in Japan.
          You Only Live Twice-Blofeld's lair was not a Volcano but a Garden of Death filled with vaious hazards such as piranhas, poisonous plants and other things which encouraged Japanese people to commit suicide.
          The Spy Who Loved Me-the book was told from the perspective of a woman who was in a pine forest in the US who'd been set up to be killed by Hotel owners who hired two thugs to do it. Bond turns up and saves her.
          Diamonds are Forever-The bad guys are called the Spangled Mob and Bond is amazed that Las Vegas had oxygen machines.

          Keep pressing that square, aint gonna do you any good.

            let me rephrase it from a jokey phrasing to a more pointed one.

            No one has ever given a flying shit about James Bond books, when talking about James Bond as a character, except people who still jerk off to Cracked.com list articles.

            You are going 'um acktually' and no one gives a shit. It's like talking about the book version of Forrest Gump.

    My rogue is ontologically lawful good so anything he does is automatically lawful good.

    A spy in the employ of a worthwhile nation/group would fit the bill.

    A great big fat guy who runs a locksmith can be adept at picking locks and disarming traps and may sell his skills to adventuring parties as a noncombatant. He's a lawful good rogue

    Professional security advisor. Legal, professional, nobody gets hurt. He is part of an organization. Clients hire him to test their own security measures. His job is to attempt infilitration of a target location. Or attempt to steal a designated item or piece of information. Afterwards he reports his findings. What methods he tried, what weak spots he found, what people he managed to get via social engineering, and so on. Then his target gets to tighten up their security measures. After payment.

    Could work in an any technologically advanced society. Shadowrun, for example. Imagine some high level security captian is happy. He managed to catch the interloper a short while before he managed to penetrate into the data storage area. He is on his way to inform his boss of his success.

    Then he finds the same infiltrator standing next to his boss. They are chatting and share a smoke. Turns out they know each other, and there will be no promotion. Instead there is a lot of chewing out.

    Then both clock out and have a drink at a bar. Like the looney toones cartoon with the wolf and the sheepdog.

      Shay's a gobshite that might have solved his problem with the Assassins by sitting down and talking with them for more than 5 minutes and not ranting and raving like a mad man about earthquakes and the end of the world. Rather than actually try, and I mean really try, to convince the Assassins not to hunt down these dangerous artefacts that might ruin the planet, he runs off at the first opportunity because the plot has to happen and the writers weren't in the mood for a more believable character arc.
