[QUOTE="reapersaurus, post: 495930, member: 1194"] Spatzimaus - you can like 'symmetry" all you want, but you are ignoring the fundamental difference between Good and Evil. Blackguards are not a core clas not because of discrimination, or a Good-bias in D&D. There aren't a core class because Evil requires someone to be powerful before letting them join their club and share in the power. Evil is selfish. Evil is not into granting powers before you have proven yourself worthy. Evil is more interested in what you bring to the table, than in what is in your heart. THAT is why there's no Blackguard core class. A simple analysis of the nature of Good and Evil takes care of that little "symmetry" angle. ;) And using the Holy Liberator to argue against a Paladin core class is absurd - the Holy Liberator, while a nice idea, is simply an add-on PrC in a splatbook they thought people were looking for to fill a 'whole' for some people. You might as well say that since there is a Soldier of Light PrC (NG) (Dieties and Demigawds), than the Paladin should be a PrC too, for 'balance.' :rolleyes: [/QUOTE]
