On a horse.Standard fighters are gritty and efficient and a little scarred. Knowledgeable. Skeptical. Jaded. A fighter's confidence is born from toughness and experience; they know what they can handle. Paladins are shimmering beauty and confidence. Wide-eyed and almost maniacal in their dedication. A paladin's confidence is madman zealot bravery, an unbreakable trust in something unseen. They do not doubt, though they may have no reason to believe.They wear ornate armor. They are elites. Nobles. They carry battle standards and flash in polished plate. Lances. Sword & Shield. They are cool and confident, brave and unflappable, dedicated and persistent. They trust their gods implicitly, and have no fear. They are smiling and resolute in the midst of the brimstone of hell. They have seen a better future for everyone, and will lead us all too it. Other people whisper words of admiration and respect. The paladin is a "good noble," not like those selfish kings or arrogant merchant-lords. The paladin helps others. They tell stories about the time he gave his treasure to the orphanage or the soup kitchen, about the time he showed up in the drought-afflicted village and the rains just started coming the very next day. They are miracle workers, otherworldly paragons. Others want to be like them, but most know they lack the dedication and purity.</blockquote>
