If he fell as a result of the GM just being a pita, then I'd play him with the same gusto as before but all fallen and angsty and probably angry at the world. To address your question as a GM - if you screwed up and ended up falling, you could drop your character sure, but you would also be taking some time off. If you screwed up, and then you said "Oh well, I;m not playing this guy anymore", I'd tell you that's too bad. I'll give you a call when I can work in another character. Of course, this tells me that we're so far apart on the gaming spectrum that you wouldn't enjoy being at my table from the get-go, long before your paladin could fall. I have never and will never ask for or want a player's permission to hand out consequences for the actions of his character. You come to my table and I'll tell you up front - anything can happen, and damn near anything goes. By letting you at the table, I'm agreeing to not jerk you around for the hell of it. If you don't agree, you don't stay at the table, and hopefully everybody finds some gaming they like.Concerning people playing a paladin IMG - I won't necessarily detail how I think paladins should be played, but if you go to do something that will cause some issues with your status, I will double check with you about whether or not you want to perform the action. For example, if, in my game, you decide your paladin is going to kill some orc babies because orcs are bad, I will ask you before you do it "Are you sure? Are you positive you want to do this?" And then, whatever happens to your character happens if you carry on.</blockquote>
