So fundamentally speaking there's a reason in DND why Paladin needs to be forced in a situation where he only can fall and lose all Powers...It's Chekov's Gun! There's a rule for Paladin falling and losing all Powers... it's meant to be used! The story of a good man trying best but failing and falling and losing all Powers... that's literally Cinema!But more importantly it's because Paladin is literally European Samurai... ever seen Samurai movie? In literally every one you'd know... there's a part where Samurai gets forced to make a choice but both choices are Dishonorable... so Samurai takes off all Armor and clothes and underwear and does Hara Kiri!Isn't that the most Honorable ending for Paladin? To preserve Honor the only way to do it is to do literally fall... but not losing Powers! Instead he falls on his Sword...
Can you stop typing like a ai that ate tvtropes and write like a normal human being?
>>98405295No.
>>98405318I've come to sort of appreciate OP just basically announcing that he's shitposting, personally. There's no need to think whether this is bait or whether someone's actually this stupid. I can just take a look at those triple ellipses and gratuitious exclamation marks and such and know for sure that this is a troll thread.
>>98405295*teleports you to the antimagic parking lot and summons 4 geriatric serial killers*
>>98405295Bro, just shut the fuck up and go kill yourself already, instead of making these retarded threads.
>>98405295How do you benefit from making these threads? Have you ever received a single sincere response?
>>98405295please keep making these, they brighten my day every time. they're the only thing with any human touch left on this godforsaken board
>>98405295I expand the falling mechanic to all divine casters. If you displease your god/totem/patron whatever you are at risk of losing your powers, it's that simple. want t be an atheist ubermesch who don't need no god?Be a wizard or something
>>98405295This faggot is the weirdest poster on /tg/ right now. I genuinely can't comprehend what the purpose of this shit is.
>>98405295>But more importantly it's because Paladin is literally European SamuraiI can't come up with a counter argument to this
>>98405295Your prose is as annoying to read as your misuse of the word "literally">There's a rule for Paladin falling and losing all Powers... it's meant to be used!Yeah, when the paladin ceases to be good and righteous, he ceases to be a paladin. It's to stop players from thinking of the paladin as "the healer" or "the better fighter">that's literally Cinema!No, it's literally an RPG mechanic.>It's Chekov's Gun!No. So many DMs do this that playing a paladin in older editions of D&D is an uphill battle and it makes your players not want to play at your table. It has lead to some players over-correcting and having their paladin do nothing so that the DM can't put them into such situations. Honestly, inaction in the face of evil should make a paladin fall just as much as choosing to do evil. Not choosing to fight one evil over another, not tricking him into doing something evil, not just for plot convenience.>>98411457>>But more importantly it's because Paladin is literally European SamuraiAgain, misuse of "literally"The romanticism surrounding bushi and knights errant is a cultural equivalent, not exactly the same thing.
>>98411866ur full of shit lmfao
>>98405295>Paladin is literally European Samurai.
