[QUOTE="Angelsboi, post: 122556, member: 1219"] ok ill explain it here LOL ok ... We have all heard of the paladins who are employed by the lawful good gods of the lands. Using the PHB Gods, we see that the only lawful good gods are: Heironous. Therefor ALL paladins MUST belong to the church of Heironious. *Buzzer sound* WRONG! You see, Wee Jas has need of a warrior to take up her cause and this is something she couldnt trust an ordinary fighter or even a most trusted cleric. She touches the heart of a young maiden whose entire family was slaughtered. She prayed for answers and now she has them. All Gods who have the alignment Lawful are Paladins. This goes for Lawful Good, Lawful Neutral and Lawful Evil. Yes even evil. Why? Because those who are lawful evil STILL obey the law, just their own version. I mean, you enter into a city that has slavery and thats the law there. if you free a slave, congradulations, you are now lawful evil. All Gods who have the alignment Neutral are Avengers. This goes for Neutral Good, True Neutral and Neutral Evil. Those who are neutral are fence sitters and can go either way on a lot of situations. Neutral Good tends to side with the forces of Good and Neutral Evil tend to side with the forces of Evil. Much like clerics, they will need to decide between Turning/Rebuking, Cure or Inflict. All Gods who have the alignment Chaotic are Chaos Knights. This goes for Chaotic Good, Chaotic Neutral and Chaotic Evil. Those who are chaotic tend to follow their own drummer but will obey their Gods demands, no matter what. Now we all know Paladins get [b][i]Lay on Hands, Detect Evil, Divine Grace, Divine Health, Aura of Courage, Smite Evil, Remove Disease, Turn Undead[/i][/b][i][/i]. We also know that if they violate their codes and break the law, they will lose their paladinhood. Right? What about Avengers and Chaos Knights? They get the following as per a paladin: Avengers: [b][i]Lay on Hands, Detect Evil or Good (Player must choose), Divine Grace, Divine Health, Aura of Courage or Aura of Fear (instead of +4 saves against fear, you can add +2 to fear saves and +2 to Intimidate OR no save and a +4 to Intimidate), Smite Evil or Smite Good (player must choose), Remove Disease, Turn Undead or Rebuke Undead[/i][/b][i][/i]. Chaos Knights: [b][i]Lay on Hands or Charletan Miracles (Player must choose), Detect Law, Divine Grace, Divine Health, Aura of Courage, Aura of Fear, Smite Evil or Smite Good (player must choose), Turn Undead or Rebuke Undead[/i][/b][i][/i]. Chaos Knights do not get Remove Disease. Why should they? Lets see what kind of Chaos comes of this disease ... [b]Charletan Miracles[/b] As per the Lay on hands but it inflicts wounds. [b]Aura of Fear[/b] Anyone within 10 feet of the Chaos Knight is subjected to a the Chaos Knights' Aura of Fear (as per the fear spell cast as the level of the paladin). This can be suppressed.
