Liberatarians are just creepy.

<moderator> No Political references! </moderator>

We will rue the day that Burlew makes even more overt (this was clear, but not overt) political/current event references in his strip.

Then we can't talk about it

Miko would be more likely to pull it off (more levels, not a rogue) but she's not a paladin anymore, so I don't think she has a real chance.

Ah, yes - however, if she does rise up against Xykon, then she might very well regain her Paladinhood, and then kick the crap outta the goblin army. But we'll see

Haley could kill the mammoth in a real cool scene the way Legolas did, though.

I was just thinking the same thing myself

Not without an Atonement spell she doesn't. It's traditional (even within the Atonement spell description) to require some quest or other great act of penance before casting the Atonement, but a Paladin who loses her powers because of an evil act needs a 5th level Cleric spell to get them back.

Uh, I'm pretty sure a paladin that intentionally commits an evil act (even if they did not see it to be evil) loses their powers permanently. But I could be wrong.

 

[Tiberius]

It used to be that way, though I didn't see anything to that effect in the SRD. Perhaps that was one of the more subtle changes made in the 3.0->3.5 transition?

Well, Rich has bent the rules enough that I'm sure (if I'm correct in my guess here) he'll find a way to fit it in

If I'm completely off, then I still can't wait to see what he comes up with. He's been at the top of his game lately

Restore Class

A paladin who has lost her class features due to committing an evil act may have her paladinhood restored to her by this spell.

Now an Exalted character can atone for evil acts, http://img89.imageshack.us/img89/9576/vop2sinsv7.gif

but exalted vows that are broken cannot be restored with atonement. Such is the nature of the words "irrevocably lost". http://img99.imageshack.us/img99/8447/vopim9.gif
