[QUOTE="Alynnalizza, post: 1566335, member: 18630"] Man this thing keeps going, and going, and going. While I still don't think I agree with the Paladin be stripped of his powers. Let's think about what is next. If you were said paladin and you thought you were doing a great service, and your god took away your paladinhome, What would you do? Try to atone. Wonder if you could better serve mankind by not being a paladin. Look into another religion. Other. This could lead to some great Role-Playing, but unnecessary rp'ing, IMO. I have a NPC in my current game that is Half-Orc. His mother was orc, his father was human. The human raped the orc on a wild binge of raping and pillaging. All the children were killed in the orc village. When the half-orc was born, he was given up to the city of humans. A Brave relative, (A retired paladin), tookt he half-orc child as his own. This half-orc grew up very knightly in his ways. (He is now a LG Fighter). He roams the region, looking for any children in need, and goes out of his way to aid any he can. He is barred from being a Paladin within the city, though he strives for 'atonement' even when none is needed. My feeling is he may be better at this job as a fighter, only because of what some here say about paladins. Perhaps as a fighter worrying more about the safety of a kid is more important than honor and turning suspects into authority, as some would suggest Paladins do. Of course, Alignment in this game has always been suspect at best. Good vie Evil should always be the caveat. One is not refused entry to 'heaven' for being chaotic, but they sure are for being evil. Sorry for rambling. [/QUOTE]
