There isn't even a dashing hero around to recommend a life of piracy.My character is pretty much a Paladin only on paper - he doesn't use that title, hs never been part of a martial order, and isn't even particularly religious. He knows that someone (or something) is granting him special powers, but while he was focused on his revenge, he was willing to take that help without seriously questioning it. Now, he's starting to wonder.So, we're 5th level, coming up to 6th, and I keep wondering - do I stick with the Paladin class, or do I take him in a new direction? He's human, Great Weapon combat style and Great Weapon Master feat, currently wielding a maul.STR 16DEX 14CON 15INT 13WIS 13CHA 15My first thought was a CHA-based spellcasting class with a martial element, either a Valour Bard or Blade Pact Warlock. But neither quite feels like it fits, or brings a great deal to the table for a martial-focused character.Has anyone gone down a similar route, and how did it work out for you? Did you find it working surprisingly well, or did you wish you'd stuck to a single class?</blockquote>
