Gnostic Goblin
Lawful Good Paladin
I cannot recall from where I read many years ago, Moorecock explaining how he was fed up of fantasy stories where a hero starts off as a nobody, builds their strength, wealth and power, kills all the monsters, defeats all the bad guys, rescues and marries the princesses, unites and rules the kingdom in a goodly way. To create an anti-hero who is directly the opposite to the hero trope this was the inspiration for Elric.
