[QUOTE="Darth K'Trava, post: 2053626, member: 20587"] As I mentioned on another thread, I think that paladins should be ABOVE such petty things as using poison, even against a "superior" foe. Either he concedes the fight with honor to fight another day when they may be on similar power levels or fight to the best of his ability. Fight as evenmatched as circumstances will allow him. Paladins shouldn't smackdown evil just because it is "there". If the evil guy does something evil within sight of the paladin, then he has all rights to "lay the smackdown on him" and take down the evil in his presence. Granted, alot of this has to do with the paladin's deity and how the DM wants a paladin to act. That should be a conversation between paladin player and DM to clear up any confusion on the issue. That, in our game, took care of the DM wanting my paladin to utter battle cries to her god in a fight as the DM saw the paladin being CLOSER to her deity than a cleric(!). The rest of the group, including me, saw differently. And before the next session, we had a nice chat with the DM to clear this up. [/QUOTE]
