I am thinking of creating an Anti Paladin character, as you have probably guessed from the title. For the character building, I have seen most guides suggest you dump wisdom or intelligence. Wisdom I am fine to dump, but the character's personality ensures that he would probably want a high intelligence.
He genuinely believes that the weak should grow to be strong on their own or die trying. He shuns helping others as they will grow to rely on aid. Paladins are idealists and he is a realist. Their so called "virtues" of honor, chivalry, loyalty and kindness mean nothing in the real world. Those they help could just as soon stab them in the back for it.
What I am not sure, however, is how well this character would fit into a good party or how to actually go about building him. I know I want a high Charisma and social skills to convince others of the "truth" of his cause. I also need high physical stats for combat and at least an average intelligence not to become the "Party Idiot". I have considered the Knight of the Sepulcher Archetype but am unsure. I want him to wield a greatsword, even though most recommend an axe or falchion. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Oudyn
