I thought about adding a little bit about Cedric having an arrangement with the madam, whereby she uses the money he provides as a "retirement fund" to allow the prostitutes to quit the job and move on. But again, that would remove some of the tougher questions, so I didn't. Simple. Because I think the character concept fits within the boundaries of the PHB paladin class, which I think is generally viewed in far too limited a manner. I am explicitly not aiming to meet the paladin archetype, but simply dealing with the PHB paladin as written. To quote your previous post, "A lawful good, code-bound class with different or no real world cultural referrents could absolutely think this way without causing any difficulties." I think it's fine and dandy to play the PHB paladin without the cultural referrents it usually brings to mind. Cedric is my tabula rasa PHB paladin <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /></blockquote>
