Hello !

Hope you're having splendid holidays !So because I love paladins, they are probably my favourite class, and we have so many good aligned pallyies, I decided to make an evil one for a change.Wield fire and destruction, bring chaos to the battlefield and become the embodiment of the power you seek.LG stay away from this one.Take care !

But the archetype of a paladin is a holy warrior. How could they be evil?

Adam Smith

Ok yes but if the archetype is subverted how can it still be called a paladin?

Espectacular Kot

holy in d&d means nothig cause there's evil gods. you are sworn to an oath, and there's no need for this oath to be good, like the paladin of tiranny in 3.5. in fact, look for treachery oath in the unearthed arcana. More so, look in the wiki of faerun (the world in wich 5e is ambiented) for the blackguard. this is a thing since a lot of editions. Paladins are not bound to be good, not even to be legal. In 3.5 where aligment was more explicit, the freedom pladin was OBLIGATED to be chaotic good,and murder paladin chaotic evil. this is content created in 2004, 16 years ago.

Fine whatever they want to do. It's their game. I'm just saying it goes against the archetype of the paladin being good. I think that archetype should be good not evil.

Growing up around D&D I always found it strange that Holy = Good. Paladins serve their God, if their god was one of Chaos, Neutrality, Law or Evil their powers would still stem from and be based on their Deity. Besides, who's to say who is good and evil. As the age old phrase goes... the winners write the history.

Well, torturing, raping, pillaging and murdering in cold blood is always evil. So it's not that difficult to make the distinction in an RPG. In real life of course this is exactly what both the Crusaders and their Muslim foes did with the ordinary non-combatant folk caught in the middle and bearing the brunt of the horrors of war.
