    I mean, paladins are creatures who thrive on extremes. Being a neutral Paladin would be difficult, unless their oath had something to do with balance and/or harmony? Typically speaking, the Paladin will fall back to their oath when confronted with a new situation. And oaths are rarely flexible enough to allow for middle ground.

    But yeah, Paladin of Vengeance is often Doom Guy and/or Batman. Zero chill, because they can’t stand for injustice, and their oath calls them to make things right even when the law fails to do so.

      Neutral paladin is just in it because his mom sent in the application to the temple and he was too lazy to find a different job. He just clocks in and clocks out each day to collect a paycheck. He takes a 10 minute break every 2hrs to smoke some weed which he refers to as “reflecting on God’s blessings”.

      Alternatively, I think maybe Hellboy is an example of Neutral Good paladin?

    Bad paladins and good paladins.

    Or is Captain Amurica considered a warlock of capitalism?

    John Brown started out on the left, but after he died he followed the confederates to Hell and became the one on the right

        It’s never really specified. They call him the “cavalier”, which in 2e was a kit that either paladins or fighters could take. He occasionally did some sorta-paladiny stuff like when he bubbled with a force bubble type thing to protect his friends
