Does a paladin must be lawful aligned? What about a chaotic paladin? What is the relationship between a chaotic neutral cleric and a lawful good paladin of a chaotic good deity?

That said, for a "Paladin" of and deity see Divine Champion for a quick fix to that problem.

Not quite a perfict paladin for game stats but seems to work from a role-playing view.

There are tons of variant classes in Unearthed Arcana, including I believe one for chaotic good, chaotic evil and lawful evil paladins (evil paladins as opposed to blackguards)

Indeed, Corellon even has dark elves within his clery.

Many DM's allow paladins of Corellon. It's hard not to imagine a sun elven paladin knight in elven plate dedicated to that deity. There is the prestige class in Races of the Wild that SiriusBlack mentioned above, and I believe there are elven substitution levels for the paladin class as well in that book.

Aha. Thanks for that.

With the exception of Sune the 1 step rule applies ie a God has to be LG, LN or NG

If you're interested in a paladin for Corellon, you might wish to check out the Champion of Corellon Larethian Prestige Class (PrC) found in Races of the Wild. While it is not a paladin class, this Prc might be a good substitute depending upon your needs/wishes.
Dargoth Posted - 11 Apr 2005 : 01:16:42
Officially neither of those 2 god can support Paladin as there CG

Sune is one and Only Exception to the rules

Officially in the Core rules a Paladin has to be LG

However

Dragon Magazine had Paladins of Different Alignments in issue 310-312

Theres also alternate rules for CG, CE and LE Paladins in Unearthed Arcana

and of cause the Divine Champion Prc in the PGTF

As for your question about relationships between one god and another, Its impossable to say without you name which gods your refering to
