[QUOTE="Herremann the Wise, post: 1075048, member: 11300"] Hi Bozidar, I'm playing a Paladin at the moment in a similar position - although 5 years of downtime does sound pretty extreme. A few things to look at: 1) Does your character know there is "downtime" for 5 years? I would suspect not. This may influence what he does. 2) Does he have Leadership? If so, he'll most likely work on that. 3) Does he have access to funds? Nothing like spending money - normally on the Church or other people though. In my Paladin's situation, he does not know that there is downtime and so with no immediate quests on hand - sort of - he is looking to establish himself and his order a little bit more. He's 10th level with the Leadership ability so his focus is setting up a Chapterhouse to attract those of a like mind. He has given all his funds either to his Church or those who have adventured with him including a 100,000gp sword to the other main fighter in the group - boy did that test his faith. However, he figured that he was already tough enough and as for funds, he is hoping to gain support and sponsorship for his Chapterhouse from the local nobility who need a strong arm of the law at the moment. His Diplomacy Skills are excellent - maxed out - so he figures he should eventually get the financial support he needs. I suppose when you are a Paladin and you have down time, you start looking at the big picture rather then the small. Anything you can do to progress the Faith that you follow is a good idea. Think of something big and go with it. Best Regards Herremann the Wise [/QUOTE]
