![]() ![]() They simply play fighters that can heal, and make use of the mechanical nature of the Paladin without really embracing its lore. I have also seen players fall into the trap of “ignoring their oaths”, which is to say, taking the “Yes, and…” strategy so far they forget the “and” half of it. It should be a paladin who strives to make sacrifices so that their companions can succeed, because that is what a good character who holds his honor in high regard would do. As harsh as they should be in their treatment of evil, they should show respect and deference to those who follow the path of good. Make it clear that paladins should strive to be kind, not condescending. ![]() They delight in refusing to cooperate with others, and use the excuse, “I’m just playing my character!” to justify their stubbornness. They act arrogant, seeing themselves as moral superiors to others, and haughtily refusing to do quests that are beneath their dignity. All too often, I have seen players who are playing lawful good characters be jerks. Often, it is both easier and faster to reach a compromise that to sit there arguing – both in and out of game – with your party members. At other times, it would be better to agree to the quest, but simply ask that exceptions or small concessions be made so that your oath is not violated. Saying “No, my character will not do that.” is an answer best saved for times when the quest is obviously in strict violation of your oaths. For example, the situation might come up where a quest needs to be undertaken, but the paladin finds something objectionable about the quest.
