Shadowdark Alternate Shadowdark Paladin: Looking for Ideas

[Bill Zebub]

The ideas are straying from most conceptions of "Paladin" but I still really like it.

An ability that came to mind (I have no idea about balancing, I am all vibes):

The paladin spends a luck token, thrusts their weapon into the ground before them, and kneels in prayer.
While praying, the paladin shakes of an amount of DMG dice/spell levels equal to his level.

Maybe have a talent on level up allowing to expand it to another PC.

I think that's a Leper ability in Darkest Dungeon.

Honestly, Red Hook should strongly consider either a Shadowdark or Mork Borg port.

The miniatures game was way too much of everything, which led to a lot of problems, but the videogames would work really well as the basis of a TTRPG dungeon crawler, especially if it's just a campaign for an existing game and not trying to reinvent the wheel. And the already created concept art for DD1 and 2 would be insanely great in a TTRPG book.
