A paladin should be willing to lay down their life for their friends at the drop of a hat. It's their job.My most recent heroic act was to fly into a fiery pit to save a suicidal gnome from buring to death after we had freed him from a curse that made him diabolically evil. (Those who have played RttToEE know what gnome I am talking about.) He still managed to commit suicide because our party was nearly decimated by the high priestess of the fire temple who my paladin managed to kill.It was disappointing because I had fully prepared for battle. The group cleric had cast a fly spell on my character so I could reach the high priestess in the fire pit. I had my Divine Might going on my sword, then this gnome screams and jumps in the pit to commit suicide. I had to fly in the pit, grapple him to get a hold of him, and then fly him out and try to calm him down. I was very disappointed that the gnome ran off and ended up throwing himself on a spear. I guess you can't save everyone.There is nothing like playing a heroic paladin. A person so attuned with their god that sacrificing their life in the name of goodness is second nature. It is in fact expected. Very cool story. Paladins are a great class to roleplay. Too many players try to avoid death, while paladins think of death as but one sacrifice in a life of eternal service to their god.</blockquote>
