Paladin
Information
Lore
Truth Bearers defend honesty and justice above all else. Every day a knight speaks the truth, their shields grow. A boon but also a burden, the impervious shields deflect any claw, but also become impossibly heavy. The most pious paladins must radically increase their bone density so they can wield the massive symbols of their faith. Grueling strength training takes place underwater, in saline pools filled with the tears of lying initiates.
Note
The Paladin continues the result of a collaboration between Adam & Lokman, exploring some well established tropes in fantasy art. Originally intended as a small line of Generic Hero Classes, the results were so compelling and un-generic, each hero's appearance told so many exciting stories that we wanted to integrate them into the KD world but so far nothing concrete has emerged.
Maintaining this fanmade Kingdom Death database takes time and real-world resources—no screaming antelope were harmed, but hosting isn’t free. If you find this lantern-lit corner of the internet useful or just plain cool, your support is deeply appreciated. It helps keep the lights on… and the monsters in check.
Help keep the lantern lit. Every bit keeps darkness at bay.
