Chaotic clerics vs Paladins (pp24, 32)

Post by AgeOfFable »

Paladins are unholy to Chaotic clerics, and may be turned (p24)

Paladins are level 5 Lawful warriors (p32).

The description for warriors doesn't seem to say that level 5 Lawful warriors can be turned by Chaotic clerics.

Why would a level 5 Warrior been turnable, at all? The "Paladin" class from D&D (sacred warrior) doesn't seem to exist in this game, and if it does, it's the Cleric. Should they be the ones affected by turning, not the warrior?

Good catch -- it is confusing.

If I had to guess (and I don't, but will), I'd say the turning reference is to "Paladins" as a concept, just as it mentions Angels and Lords of Law. If you're playing a quote/unquote Holy Warrior of All That Is Good And Just™, watch out when you get around those chaotic Clerics... :twisted:
