[QUOTE="Hand of Evil, post: 6921403, member: 371"] It all comes down to the wording of the oath and the tenets. Do not have info on the Oath of the Crown but would assume one would be "loyalty" and would be something about swearing it to the crown. But what does that mean? Is that loyalty to the royal blood, the throne, or the land itself? Each one may allow a greater freedom to the paladin based on the answer. You can look at all of the tenets and find loopholes within them, like "law", as a land could have a few; such as church law (inquisition), or state laws (laws of the land). You can even place values to them, like which comes first just by the wording of the tenets. An easy loophole here is being able to write the laws of the land to take advantage. Work with your DM to come up with the Oath and the wording, think about what changing a word may imply. There are a number of historical references that can be used as examples. [/QUOTE]
