The Inheritor

Trained to fight from the moment you could hold a sword, your life has been a never ending lesson in the nature of good and evil, both figurative and literal. The one who taught you the values and skills of a paladin is now long gone, but his words of warning still remain: A storm of darkness is approaching, and you must be ready for it.

A lone wolf type origin that focuses on defence, dispatching the undead and empowering allies through the use of character specific abilities.

Power through self-sacrifice, aiding of allies and copious amounts of bloodshed.

So you want to be a REAL paladin?

The paladin might be strong, but that simply gives you the opportunity to seek greater adversity.

So, follow a code.

Being offered a lucrative deal, but accepting it would mean betraying your employer?

Are you being asked to hurt the weak and innocent so that the mighty may profit?

Never trade honor for gold.

Escorting a caravan at day 10 and you get attacked by 12 raiders?

Stand your ground, those filthy peasants have trusted you with their lives.

Never trade innocent lives for your own.

Did you come across a den of true evil and iniquity? Does it contain several Geists and a dozen zombies in front of those ghastly fuckers?

Is a village being harassed by something unknown and potentially lethal, maybe the villagers are even at fault here?

Never turn down a chance to fight unnatural horrors beyond human comprehension.

By following these few simple guidelines you are certain to become a true protector of the innocent and a formidable champion of the light

...or die really fast.
