Lower BAB? Worse saves? Increased armour/weapon restrictions? Forgoing all character wealth? Assuming we don't want to gave something away for nothing?

I could see a Paladin PrC that dumped spellcasting for more specialised anti-Evil SU-abilities, or loosing other stuff to increase spellcasting ability, or a multitude of options. It strikes me that Hospitaler does just that: Increases the spellcasting ability of a paladin, not at the expense of Combat, but at the expense of some other abilities. I find it hard to see that a cleric is going to qualify easily, given the two skill requirements that are both cross class skills for a cleric.Just what would you be willing to give up of the Paladin's arsenal? And just how do you view the champion of good? Side note: One aspect that nevers seems to be properly explored, for me, in this game, is the aspect of Chaos. It strikes me that Paladins should be just as useful against creatures of Chaos, as against that of Evil. There aren't even many spells with a law/chaos descriptor.</blockquote>
