[QUOTE="Garthanos, post: 4948230, member: 82504"] Paladin implies service to the divine - and nature gods work just fine... If you are going a human service style paladin (champion of a king for instance) ... you do indeed imply a greater counter point where the grand scale needs of nature and the rather limited human needs of a kingdom might conflict. The druids were said to be blood sacrifice style magic so your religious ceremonies don't look like shiny light and candles but more blood on altar... Morality conflicts if you want some there are some interesting possibilities perhaps the nature religion basically promotes "be fruitful and multiply" to a much higher level of importance and considers nudity a holy state of dress, so this paladin might have issues when dealing other cultures virginity and hiding your body is good ethos. Nothing in the Nature Paladin necessarily implies a fighting style I think but I have green knights who use wood hardened like steel (there is a handy ritual to do that in D&D 4e), usually these green knights I build as 4e Wardens class though depending on the fighting style somebody wanted we could go any number of routes. They are very much guardian protectors of a priestesshood so they certainly could be constructed as paladins of a nature god maybe hybrid ranger and avenger mix -- undead are as much enemies of nature as they are generic divine enemies they are incredibly un-natural so paladin abilities arent bad... I like my paladins mounted and although some celestial courser (horse) would be ok... if you are doing a Druidic one it might be more fun to have something less domesticated to ride like hmmm maybe a hypogriff or something like it perhaps it is normal for the Druid Knights.
