[QUOTE="Dozen, post: 6004760, member: 6698275"] Answering from last to first. 1. Yes, It is:) 2. If Heironeous is what paladins strive to be, most paladins comically missed the point, and 3. Deities aren't some intanglible ascended beings we cannot possibly comprehend; they are just everyday men, women and "miscellaneous" with powers on steroids. And you can become one of them. Canon. Zagyg and Vecna did it. You can play them out in various ways as a DM, true. But his entry says Lawful Good. As apparently he's yet to fall, I'd guess he meant it when he filled out that char sheet, and no Good person has a 'not caring for those beneath him' policy. Damn right a [B]real [/B]paladin doesn't. I'll go also ahead and assume if he managed to stay in the saddle for so long, he pulled the stick out off his ass soon enough, if he had one to begin with. Though this latter can be worked around if you really want a Holier Than Thou sthick, he'd still care for the rest, even for Evil ones, because that's what being Good is about. Your Heironeous in your campaign can only care for those he deemed important, but then go ahead and cross out the word 'Good', replace it with 'Neutral', and make him a cleric. [/QUOTE]
