For your character, you may want him to use an unusal weapon for a paladin, such as a rapier, or maybe a trident.  I do not recommend using Dex. as a dump stat.  You can compensate for a lack of a sheild with feats such as two weapon defense or twin sword style, if you were using two weapons.  Dodge is a good option, if you have the Dex for it.  As for races, any are good, even the Half-Orc.  Just try to play to the strengths and weaknesses that your character has, and it will be fun.</blockquote>
