[QUOTE="LoneWolf23, post: 564114, member: 643"] I highly recommend the AEG book GOOD to everyone interested in playing Paladins, or just Good aligned characters period. It's got a nice analysis of just what's the point of a Good character. Simply put, Good Aligned characters are the Heroes. They're the White Hats. They're the folks who go out of their way, putting their lives on the line, to save lives. And why would anyone want to be a Good guy when being Evil's much more fun? Simply because nobody likes a villain, while Everyone loves a hero. To be honest, playing a Paladin sounds mind-numbingly simple to me: Just try to help others, obey the laws of the land (as long as they're fair), and don't suffer to see Evil stand unopposed. What do you get in return? Well, for starters people will like you a whole lot more then the folks who barge in with weapons and magic and try to loot the place. But anyways... As can be guessed, GOOD does deal with Paladins. One section offers suggestions on modifying the Paladin class, and alternate Paladin classes: The Avenger (Chaotic Good) and the Defender (Neutral Good), which complement the Paladin rather well. And if that's not enough, the Prestige Class section offers the Paladine, a Prestige Class that fills in the Paladin's traditional role and possesses all it's abilities. Hope this helps a little...
