    confused Um... What happened to the Falling Paladin Threads?

    I used to enjoy reading the sometimes ridiculous lengths DMs or other players would go through to torpedo paladins and convert them to fighters without extra feats.

    Did the threads run into Flameville and receive a deletion, or did they move somewhere else? I found the "Fallen Druid" thread down in silly message board games, but no sign of: "An evil being once slept in the inn across the street from the inn your paladin slept in. Your paladin didn't immediatly seek the evil-doer out to render justice, so YOU FALL!"

    They got too snarky... SO THEY FELL!
    Me: I'd get the paladin to help, but we might end up with a kid that believes in fairy tales.
    DM: aye, and it's not like she's been saved by a mysterious little girl and a band of real live puppets from a bad man and worse step-sister to go live with the faries in the happy land.
    Me: Yeah, a knight in shining armour might just bring her over the edge.

    I know, those were so fun I actually built a paladin that was a paladin because he fell.
    Alot is not a word. It's a lot, two words.
    Always use the proper tool. If the proper tool isn't available, try a hammer.

    It involves Monkey Grip, a mighty Composite Greatbow, and Zen Archery. I personally find the build better for psychic warriors due to the half-giant synergies.

    Funny story: The paladin fell for associating with the other members of the party after they finally reached the cliff at the end of the slippery slope.

    Hey, has anyone ever built a fallen Paladin? As in, they were fallen at character creation and their reason for adventuring was to un-fall (fly?) via redemption. It sounds like a neat way to purposefully handicap yourself because a) you want the roleplay opportunity or b) you're the group's only optimizer and you've realized that your friends hate your powerful characters.

    If you're the group's only optimizer you wouldn't be playing a paladin in the first place.

    Some are still here in gaming. Some became overrun by flaming. Some of the nonsense "make an X fall" threads have been locked, moved, or both. There are a couple paladin falling threads posted in in the last couple weeks still here in Gaming d20 & General.
