Erodrin Kaliber: Paladin 1. Human/male. Chain & shield. Broadsword, morningstar, dagger. Erodrin has been tapped by <insert goody goody god of light & justice here> as his champion of the mortal realms. Coming from a difficult farmer's life, the newly enlightened 20 year old has an uphill battle to achieve the heights of faith and power he is destined and already enters moments of self-doubt and reflection. Still, he is devout and pious as befitting one of his divinely inspired station, strong, determined, and quick to action in the certitude of his moral compass. Even when his own faith is shaky, <the deity of choice> has faith in the young pure-hearted warrior [for now] and has big plans for Erodrin, though the handsome youth can' begin to fathom his role, simply wishing to faithfully carry out the will of <deity>.  34. Oliana Whitewing: Paladin 3 [low level]. Human/female. Plate & Shield. Longsword, spear, mace, dagger. Oliana was a neophyte priestess of <insert suitable good god here> before she was visited by the messengers of <deity>. After a good bit of skepticism from her superiors, her newfound abilities could not be argued and so, reluctantly, her temple sanctions her pursuit of a role as an "enforcer/justiciar" paladin for the normally peace-loving deity. Thankfully, her role of paladin means she spends most of her time away from the temple, which is fine with the hierarchy of current priests. Oliana exists with a certainty in the "righteousness" of her deity, her [she believes] divinely-inspired causes and her actions. She can be seen as "cold" at times since her expression of moral and ethical views is often very black/white and has no use/appreciation of the "greys" of reality. She is young, there's still plenty of time to learn/gain wisdom.     35. Kurtor "Icesword" Greytor Paladin 5 [mid level]. Dwarf/male. [white dragon] Scale & shield. Longsword, Broad sword, hand axes (2), dagger. Kurtor has been a servant of <insert lawful dwarven deity of mountains/storms/battle/whatever> for his entire life, entering the paladinic order as soon as he came of age. That was a couple of centuries ago and while not yet "middle aged", he has a gravitas and wisdom beyond his years. The fact his hair and long, neatly trimmed beard went silvery white before his 150th birthday [which he and several of his order took as a sign from his deity] lends to this "feeling" of an aged and/or enlightened soul. His sometimes used moniker of "Icesword" comes from the magical weapon which he found [another sign?], a broad sword with a blade of magically sharp and hard ice.36. Cellaea Goldtree: Paladin 5 [mid level]. Elf/female. Elvin chain & shield. Longsword, lance, mace, dagger. Cellaea is an elvin beauty among beauties with hair streaked in silver and gold, eyes of pale periwinkle and an aura that exudes purity and an "untouched" and "untouchable" otherworldly quality. Cellaea serves <insert appropriate elvin goddess>. Cellaea is first to arrive, ready for battle, wherever evil threatens her people, allies or the tenets of her goddess. She has been gifted/rides a unicorn mount into battle and is a celebrated jouster and expert of fighting from horseback. 37. Ranzanth: Paladin 10 [high level]. Silver Dragonborn [or half-dragon or, heck, a polymorphed silver dragon if you allow that sorta thing]/male. Plate (over his nature scales). Two-handed sword, battle axe, short sword, spear, morningstar. Ranzanth is a boisterous and prolific servant of the great Platinum God. Unlike many other paladins, Ranzanth has an almost "casual" attitude and demeanor. He is happy to discuss, debate and philosophize on the grandeur and correctness of the tenets of his lord, but his faith and courage are never in question. He spends equal energy and fervor [as time allows] in enjoying the pleasures and joys of life to swinging his great two-handed sword in service of his deity's cause.</blockquote>
