| Faiths & Avatars, a 2E book. Faiths & Pantheons is good, but it lacks the detail of the 2E deity trilogy -- Faiths & Avatars, Powers & Pantheons, and Demihuman Deities. Those three books are my go-to source for anything pertaining to the deities of the Realms. |

Fom all I remember, since my character Joran is also a paladin of Torm, Wolly mentioned everything I can think of also. My sig contains a link to the paladin's ethos, and from there you can also access the rest of the 2E The Complete Paladin's Handbook. You might be able to find some things there that are useful as well. Best of luck in your campaign, and with your character!  |

My personal favorite example of paladinhood keeps being Ser Keldorn Firecam in the game Baldurs Gate 2 Shadows of Amn, of the Order of the Radiant Heart based in Athkatla in Amn. He is excellently voiced and sets such a great example with his dialogue, some of which is very uplifting or insightful.
quote:
[To Minsc after he mentions what a great honor it is to fight next to Keldorn] Do not take honor in fighting with my presence. Take honor in that you fight for good, for that is my source of strength.

I also remember there being an article on WotC about specific churches in the Realms and the sorts of items they put emphasis on, like Roses for Lathander (as he represents the rosey-color of Dawn) as well as specific gems, colors, and such. Lemme see what I can find out.
Also, is there anything specific your looking for?
EDIT: Ah, found it! It's a free downloadable Web Enhancement for Faiths and Pantheons that has a lot of good information on the various deities on Faerūn in addition to special Monk and Paladin orders that allow them to Multiclass into other stuff (same can be found in Champions of Valor.
For your enjoyment- Torm Manifestations include Animals/Plants: pure white roses; Monsters: Gold and Silver Dragons, Lammasus, and Pegasi; Gems/Precious Metals: White Diamonds; Colors: Steel; Miscellaneous: 12-foot tall flying metal gauntlet with a white aura and arcs of lightning, animated weapons, images burned into fabric (usually a gauntlet, shield, or sword). |

The 2E transition module Tantras has some pertinent information regarding the worship of Torm. It is certainly the best of the three Avatar modules

| 3e Champions of Valour has a substitution class for the Order of the Golden Lion, a cadre of paladins devoted to Torm. The substitution class allows you to swop some paladin powers for special abilities more appropriate to Torm's warriors. |
