[QUOTE="gyor, post: 6346685, member: 6670153"] The Oath of the Ancients has a strong nature theme, but its different from say a Rangee, Nature Cleric, Druid, or Monk of the 4 Elements. In the Alpha, its heavily focused on Beauty, Light, Kindness, and Joy, and not all the powers are nature focused, a few like Turn the Faithless CD, the Feeblemind Spell, Misty Step spell, Ward Aura, and Undying Sentinel give it a Fey feel. And terms like Fey Knight, Green Knight, and Horned Knight give it a feel of a wide domain. Vibe Wise I say it'd be a good fit for Nature Gods, d'uh, but only neutral and good ones, the Seldarine as a whole, Gnome Gods, Chaotic Good Gods of Passion and Light, like Sune, Sharess, Llirra, Tymora, Lathander, and Gods of Magic like Mystra, and because Ancient is so emphasised perhaps none evil Dragon and Giant Gods. Any Gods with a fey vibe in general. The Cavalier I'd see as Strongly focused on Justice and Honor, but also Chivalary, Gods like Tyr, Torm, Helm Amauntor, Siamophe, and Sune again (she was the only Chaotic deify to have Paladins when they were lawful good only, I think because of the romance of the knight in shining armour). The Avenger would be common amoung Gods of both Justice and Vengence, and unlike the other two that includes evil Gods. War Gods would common too. Still all Gods have enemies so they likely to be everywhere. My favourite Avenger was a Void Genasi Avenger of Shar, from the Shadowbane novels. Still they all have themetic room for alot of ideas. I'd say the Oath of Devotion is a mash up of the traditional LG Paladins, The Chaladin, and the Cavalier subclass of Paladin in 4e. I'd say the Oath of Vengence is a mix of the 4e Avenger, the Al Qadium Holy Slayer, the Grey Guard, and the PF Inquistor in theme. The Oath of the Ancient seems to be a mash up of the 4e Warden Class, the Green Knight Myths, the Paladin of Colloron Latherian Paragon Path of 4e, Glorious Servitor Prestige Class abit without full transformation, and some of the Elderin pagagon paths from 4e, and I see this subclass as being the most likely to multiclass into a primal or arcane class.
