The Paladin

A Knight who serves the light, the darkness or balance, the Paladin is steadfast of heart and follows to the letter the teachings of his god. A battle-ready warrior for whom faith is a shield, he fights unceasingly for what he believes to be right. To him the Code of Honor is sacred above all else. In reward for his belief, powers have been granted unto him by the gods to bring blessings to his friends and wreak cruel justice upon his foes. There are those who call the Paladin an overwrought zealot, but others recognize in him the strength and unwavering conviction of a true believer.
