Along with that the half celestial template has an LA much higher than it should be anyway.Having the extra 8th level character (who does not lower exp gained by the party btw) is a pretty huge boon.Lets kick it up a few levels.Eventually the cleric will gain spell resistance at which point he can cast on himself and the paladin and whoever else. This SR will be better than that gained by the template.Also the cleric can cast resist energy on everyone/anyone.Along with all of the other benefits such as healing.The paladin with the template would be stronger in a more personal way, but as the topic of the thread the party would be overall better by having the paladin and the cleric. Especially as levels increase.Paying a feat to burn off a point or two of the LA seems like a fine way to go. But then, halfcelestial is too high anyway.Spending leadership to get a symbiotic buddy from his god which grants the halfcelestial template certainly doesnt seem out of order. Effectively it is like a personal little cleric who likes casting buff spells only on the paladin. Giving up the other parts of the leadership feat seems like an all right trade.But again, for the party overall having the cleric would simply be better.</blockquote>
