@trantion@masto.ai The idea that Paladins must be Lawful Good has never sat well with me, as a Neutral Good Human. As far as I am concerned, being truly "Good" means you sometimes have a moral duty to break the rules.

@gcvrsa@mastodon.social I don't think they have to be LG, although Pathfinder has the "Champion" class for soldiers dedicated to a god, of which the LG ones are called "paladins", which I like. I get what you're saying about LG vs. NG. The way I see alignment (it's just a rough guide) is that L/C is about how closely you follow norms/laws. So if a good person wants to help others, LG would try to do that within the law, NG would bend things a bit more, and CG might act rashly without thinking of consequences.
