PrC Paladins

[Cthulhu's Librarian]

In my campaign, Paladins aren't available at 1st level, but are prestige classes. I was planning on using the PrC Paladin from Arcana Unearthed, but was wondering what other PrC Paladins are out there, I know I've seen a few, just can't remember where.

This seems to be happening to me a lot lately, I know stuff is out there and I have it, I just can't remember what book.

Are you looking for paladin-specific prestige classes or paladin-like prestige classes?

Are you looking for paladin-specific prestige classes or paladin-like prestige classes?

I'm looking for PrC that a fighter/cleric can work towards, that will replace the Paladin (there is no Paladin core class in my campaign). So, a Paladin-like PrC.

Knight of the Chalice (Comp War)

Divine Crusader (Comp Div)

Holy Liberator (Comp Div)

Hospitaller (Comp Div)

Pious Templar (Comp Div)

Shining Blade of Heironious (Comp Div)

War Priest (Comp Div)

All paladin like or at least good for F/C combos.

Besides the Prestige Paladin from Unearthed Arcana, there are two other d20 conversions of the Paladin into prestige classes:
- Call of Duty (by Chainmail Bikini) has a 15-level Paladin PrC
- GOOD (by AEG) has a version called the Paladine

There are no Paladins in Oriental Adventures, either, so that book has an Akodo Champion with many Paladin-like abilities for Rokugan campaigns.

Green Ronin's Book of the Righteous also has a customizable Holy Warrior core class that replaces the Paladin. And there are non-Lawful Good Paladins in Dragon Magazine and Book of Hallowed Might.

And don't forget the Fist of Raziel from the Book of Exalted Deeds. I have heard some people complain that it out-paladins the paladin.

Thanks everyone! I'll look at those over the weekend.

You might also simply adapt the core PHB class, by requiring characters to be at least 5th level before taking levels in it (together with requiring LG alignment and a vow to the code of conduct). To make it more prestigious, you could "shift" its spellcasting down so that it starts at level 1.

I've done a bit of work on this: Yet Another Paladin Prestige Class

I believe that Liber Equitis 1 or 2 has something along the lines of a holy champion that's not necessarily a paladin but rather a holy agent.
