[QUOTE="Minigiant, post: 5842016, member: 63508"] I was brainstorming a long time ago about paladin and how to make them special. At one point I had this crazy idea about basing most of the paladin's divine ability around his weapon. During the process of becoming or realizing himself as a pairing, the divine knight would be gifted with a holy weapon. As his faith increased, his divine unbreakable weapon (or armor) would grow in power. Basically paladins start with a magic item. Players would have the ability to customize this divine piece of equipment. It could heal with a touch it they want. It could be a bane to demons, devils, undead, and the othe enemies of their deity. It could grant flight or invisibility. It could fight on it own or come when called. It could allow the paladin to cast spells. Or it could just grant +'s. This would differentiate itself from fighters who use training and barbarian who use rage and raw emotion. The paladin's faith would be channeled into the item. This could be modular as DMs could control which enhancements match his or her setting. The customizable item could be as complex or simple as the player wants going from daily and encounter abilities to basic bonuses. Who would like or object to the idea? [/QUOTE]
