Monster Mash X: Buds of a monster flock together

[Beni-Kujaku]

Diablo II : Friendship is magic
These balloons in her cutie mark only represent your lives flying away.

I was always almost a regular horse. Well, not completely regular. I was too smart for horses. I had a master. He was a paladin. Knight of Light and Good, who fights Evil, demons and undead every time he meets them. That’s what killed him. He was a powerful fighter, but in one fight he was cursed so much that he couldn't heal his wounds and was slowly bleeding to death. I can't save him, he even didn't get on me, what could I do? Dying he spoke to me and left me his magical crown. He was a great paladin and good master. I was with him for a long time and saw many miracles he made. I think I could become a paladin instead of him and for his glory... And for the friendship of course!

LG Light Warhorse Paladin* 17
*- I should draw your attention. This paladin isn't PHB paladin. It's Diablo II paladin. Check the Books section.

It's not clear for me is it legit to add item abilities from items that occupy different body slots. If answer is yes I also want to add this items' abilities:

Incarnum Focus (boots) (MIC, 112)	+22500
Veil of Allure (MIC, 145)	+21000

Diane is a very quick and charismatic horse with two friendly abilities: Prayer and Might. Her charisma check for now isn't good enough to guarantee success at all checks, but she working on it and her former master's crown helps her.

Spoiler: 7th-14th levels

Show

New four friendly abilities (Defiance, Thorns, Blessed Aim and Cleansing) helps Diana and her friends fight evildoers. Holy Bolt is a weapon against undead and another healing source. Zeal works good for paladin with natural weapons only. At 14th level Diane's crown opens its power enough and from this time Diana always succeeds at charisma check after using all her abilities.

Spoiler: 15th-20th levels

Show

16th level is Diane's sweet spot. She got Vigor ability and could give all her friends her speed improved by 10 ft. for 10 minutes. And she can do it all day long. Also she has Worg Pelt soulmeld bonded to feet chakra and Psycarnum Infusion feat. With it she could improve her speed by 25 ft (30 ft at 18th level) right before using Vigor. This means 110 ft. speed for her and all her friends. For all day long. It could be even more with some debatable crown improvements.
Also she got Blessed Hammer, Vengeance and her most powerful weapon against demons and undead - Conversion. First two are just various sorts of damage, but the third... Option to convert any demon or undead into LG alignment allies is very strong!
