I am going to be playing in an every-once-in-a-while game using the Shackled City Adventure Path. The group has decided to all start as clerics or paladins of various PHB/Complete Divine gods. The GM has us starting at 1st level, and, if we choose to play a paladin, we get a free feat that allows us to multiclass with cleric. There are also feats available that allow us to multiclass with one other class without penalty. However, if we multiclass, our religious class has to be the equal or higher in level of the two classes...
So far, we have:
* Paladin following the ideal of goodness (going to Fighter, with an eye toward mounted combat)
* Cleric of Kord (with Strength and Competition as domains, he's going to be a wrestler)
* Paladin of St. Cuthbert
* Paladin of Myrhiss, Godness of Love, Romance and Beauty (with TWF, a rapier and shortsword, and light armor - going to be a swashbuckling paladin, I assume)
We rolled our stats (4d6, drop the lowest), and I am pretty pleased with what I came up with: 9, 12, 13, 14, 14, 17. However, as for a character concept, I am just not finding something I am excited about. I do not have Complete Divine or Complete Arcane, so if offering suggestions from there, that's fine - just give me a few details to go on.
Oh, and the group has suggested wanting to try things WITHOUT arcane magic, but I am not set against it. In fact, my initial thought was paladin/sorcerer. but didn't like what I could come up with when constrained to having the paladin be the higher of the two classes.
I am hoping someone here has some suggestions...
Thanks,
Jason
