- Abelar Corrinthal, Paladin of Lathander, from Saerb/Sembia in Paul S. Kemp's Twilight War trilogy - Gareth Dragonsbane, Paladin of Ilmater, from Damara in Bob Salvatore's Sellsword Trilogy Book II & III, featured as well in the Bloodstone War Adventure trilogy. |

Posted - 28 Jan 2008 : 02:45:57 Yeah, Thornhold is a book that people tend to react very strongly to if they love their warriors of the Gods. |

Miltiades,

Miltiades also appears in the Double Diamond novelettes. |
The Red Walker |
Posted - 28 Jan 2008 : 01:20:05 Thornhold would be another great book, as is shows a Paladin who is compromised as well. |

Posted - 28 Jan 2008 : 01:18:47 Azure Bonds my friend, If you are interested in the mysterious Dragonbait being mentioned!
I think Mace asked if he counts because Dragonbait is a Saurial, Not your typical human paladin. You would be hard pressed to find a more noble example though. |

Posted - 28 Jan 2008 : 00:50:10 Dragonbait is DEFINITELY a paladin.
The classic Pools of Darkness and Pool of Twilight have an undead paladin of Tyr called Miltiades, and I think the MC of PoT is a paladin as well. (It's been a long time.)
One of the main characters of Shadowstorm, the second novel of PSK's Twilight War trilogy, is a Lathanderite paladin, and an excellent depiction of a paladin in the Realms, I believe.
I myself am a particular fan of paladins--one can be found in Ghostwalker in the form of Bars Hartwine, and another can be found (albeit briefly) in Depths of Madness.
Cheers
