Paladin players have the added bonus of having to make sure that everything they do conforms to the code they've bound to. It then follows that paladins will have to deal with the usual moral questions while adventuring. I'm not advocating sparing paladin players from moral questions, merely advocating against heaving no-win scenarios at them like FCWesel seemed to suggest. In that circumstance the paladin had to choose between two duties, and either way he chose could result in the DM ruling that he's broken his code. It's a lose-lose choice, and paladin players should not be subjected to them merely because they're playing a paladin.Now, before you defend yourself, I understand that FCWesel seemed to think one solution was better than the other, and he did not say that he would lose his powers either way. But designing a moral dilemma for a paladin because he's a paladin, when the DM can easily have one "correct" solution in mind, is unfair to the paladin's player: he's going to have to make enough moral choices without the DM trying to trip him up as it is.</blockquote>
