Playbook: The Paladin (PBtA)
This class presents a complete alternative to the paladin class found in Dungeon World.
While it's still a capable melee warrior (moreso against the denizens of evil)¸ most of its abilities are built around the seven-heavenly virtues: you choose three at the start of the game¸ and can choose more using advanced moves. Each virtue grants you an ability and forbids you from doing something¸ and most of the twenty-five advanced moves require and build onto the virtues you chose¸ so not all paladins will feel or play the same way.
As with our other alternative classes¸ this is intended to replace the default paladin¸ but frankly they're both different enough that you could use both at the same table.
This product contains three files.
A letter-sized character sheet that use our new character sheet layout (so that we could fit all twenty five advanced moves).
The other two are digest-sized books¸ one in color¸ the other in black and white (to make it easier to print at home if you want). They both contain:
- The paladin class.
- New weapons and armor (including armor for animals).
- The cavalier compendium class.
- A director's cut with questions to ask yourself when rolling up a paladin¸ explanations/clarifications for some of the moves¸ and some extra moves that we couldn't fit on the sheet.
