Krampus ate my d20s
Paladin straitjackets
1) This scenario screams of "Please screw over one player for choosing a class I don't like/understand"
2) As countless people have stated, no violation of code: no loss of powers
3) No warning either. The Paladin is a foe of evil, not someone to be taken out by mooks. Lie to get in and deal real damage to real evil.
4) It all comes down to dialogue with the DM to how paladins are viewed in the world and what the Paladin Code is. I hate the double standard that is applied to paladins but not to Lawful Good clerics or other classes.
IMC, The paladin is a champion over evil and chaos. He will follow his code to the best path to smiting evil and chaos. He may lie to evil. He may kill evil after others have let it go.
