Soldiers of Ice had a fallen paladin if I remember correctly who eventually reclaimed his paladinhood. There is something about a paladin in the book.

Main character from "The Threat from the Sea" trilogy eventually becomes a paladin (of Lathlander me'thinks).

Have those been mentioned already?

- 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.

Yeah, Thornhold is a book that people tend to react very strongly to if they love their warriors of the Gods.

I knew we had this discussion before . . . here is an older thread were we went over some of the better paladin portrayals in novels here at the keep:

Miltiades also appears in the Double Diamond novelettes.

Thornhold would be another great book, as is shows a Paladin who is compromised as well.

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.
Erik Scott de Bie 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

Would Dragonbait count as well?

Finder's Bane and Tymora's Luck both had a paladin of Lathander as a main character.

Ed's All Shadows Fled features a Chauntea-serving paladin -- Nelyssa Shendean of the Riders of Mistledale.
