[QUOTE="Cedric, post: 1026521, member: 2044"] I appreciate what you are saying...with the prospect of playing a Paladin in the Forgotten Realms coming up, I've decided to play an Aasimar Paladin of Lathander from Cormyr. I realized early on that I could never accomplish what I wanted with the character as a straight Paladin. Since I am going to be starting at 11th level (joining a pre-existing campaign)...I've more or less plotted out my advancement. Fighter 1 Paladin 5 Purple Dragon Knight 5 (FRCS) Noble Adventurer 4 (Drgn Mgz 307) Divine Champion 5 (FRCS) I've decided to use my leadership feat to take a Paladin's Mount for a Cohort...that will make up for my mount not advancing through additional Paladin levels. The end result is I get most of the special abilities of a Paladin (no remove disease), some minor spell casting ability (one 1st level spell) and an extra 5 Feats (3 of them from the warrior list). Planning my feats out as... Power Attack Mounted Combat Discipline (free - FRCS) Celestial Bloodline (Races of Faerun) Leadership Eyes of Light (Races of Faerun) Divine Might (DoTF) Critical Strike (Greatsword) Ride-By Attack Spirited Charge Weapon Focus: Mace Divine Vigor Trample Obviously all of this is subject to change...there is that little thing known as surviving that I'll have to overcome...heh.
