[QUOTE="Paul Farquhar, post: 8207267, member: 6906155"] 1) Doesn't really fit with the GotG theme, for a party member; 2) Faith in what? You planning an info drop on the setting's religions (or Nova Corps equivalent)? 3) How does it differ from an annoyingly moralistic fighter? Or, if you are going with 5e, any sort of fighter at all? You clearly haven't seen the Pine Star Trek movies. He plays a Starfleet captain [I]who breaks all the rules[/I]. Shatner-Kirk is positively square compared to Pine-Kirk. Summary of Pine-Kirk's Starfleet career: [SPOILER] [LIST] [*]Juvenile delinquent and adrenaline junky involved in petty crime and barroom brawls; [*]Dared to join Starfleet by the intervention of Pike; [*]Is about to be expelled from Starfleet academy for cheating when a crisis means he is assigned to the Enterprise as a Ensign; [*]Mutinies and is marooned by the Enterprise's acting captain; [*]Seizes command of the Enterprise ands saves the Earth; [*]Is awarded command of the Enterprise; [*]Breaks the Prime Directive to save a friend, leading to a pre-industrial society worshiping the Enterprise as a god; [*]Falsifies his log to cover up breaking the Prime Directive; [*]Is stripped of command; [*]Another crisis leads to him being put back in command of the Enterprise - it turns out [I]because[/I] he is considered a rule-breaking maverick; [*]Fires Scotty for refusing to break the rules; [*]Disobeys his direct orders; [*]Saves the Earth again; [*]Is bored to the teeth with all this five year mission diplomacy nonsense; [*]Considers resigning; [*]Gets his ship blown up; [*]Saves the Federation; [*]Decides not to resign, having been reminded of why he joined Starfleet in the first place - to punch bad guys until his fists are bloody. [/LIST] [/SPOILER] Conclusion: definitely not a paladin. It's notable that whenever Pine takes a role previously played by other actors (which is quite often) the Pine version is more roguish than the original. [/QUOTE]
