[QUOTE="Klaus, post: 3350879, member: 607"] Since there are no specific guidelines dealing with these circumstances, the default rules still apply. So the mount stays until its duration wears off (2 hours per paladin level), at the end of which it returns to its celestial home with everything it is carrying. This creates a few interesting situations: - If the paladin falls unconscious, the mount (being intelligent enough), might pick up the character and carry him to safety. If it knows that there is a temple of the paladin's god nearby, it will head in that direction. - A paladin might commission an item that allows his mount to use a Cure Wounds spell on him. He can then explain to the mount what it must do if the paladin falls in battle. - If a paladin dies and the mount picks him up, the paladin's corpse is now an object. As such, it also returns to the celestial realms with the mount when the duration expires. In fact, I bet there's a decent-sized paladin graveyard in the Seven Heavens, established by archons to receive the corpses of fallen paladins brought in by their special mounts. [/QUOTE]
