I still want Smiter for my pallie! Or something silly like Pickpocket Devistator, something thats very anti-thief. Till then, Guardian Lord works for now, as does Enforcer of Elanthia.

Hi folks,

Taken from GM Nehros' post on titles:

<I'd like to request any and all interested individuals to submit suggestions for additional titles in the 'Paladin Guild Title Suggestions' topic area for phase II of the titles project. Feel free to suggest the good, the bad and the ugly. Rest assured, the majority of paladin titles will not have soul-state requirements and thus be available to our sticky-fingered friends.

While thinking of titles you'd like to submit please keep in mind that there is no such thing as a 'Dark Paladin'. There might be rough/gruff/mean/nasty and `Not So Nice' paladins, but Dark Paladins do not exist.>

I haven't heard many/any ideas to fit the rough/gruff/mean/nasty paladin title category.

I'm updating the player suggestion lists over the next few days, so get your ideas in!


Thanks,

Annwyl
Senior Board Monitor

No, this post is not an invitation to discuss the plausibilty of light vs. dark. I really don't care what anyone thinks about the subject. If you want to post on that .. put it in the paladins and thier [dead] warhorses folder. Heh, I R funnie.

>While thinking of titles you'd like to submit please keep in mind that there is no such thing as a 'Dark Paladin'. There might be rough/gruff/mean/nasty and `Not So Nice' paladins, but Dark Paladins do not exist.

Framing the scope of Paladin titles to exclude a complete area of the game, with a rather extensive history, fact or fiction, lost my interest on the spot, initially. Secondly, regardless of game design or intent, there is|was obvious interest in playing dark, evil, or whatever Paladins for the "fun factor", conflict factor, coolness factor or other reasons. Limiting discussions only served, in this case, ignorance. Food for thought.

My bad attitude towards a pointed and limiting request aside, here's a few ideas. Feel free to substitute other Paladin titles where I've used "Knight" as an example.

[Knight | Defender | Page | Squire | etc..]

I thought I saw some "safe" versions like Emerald Knight, and similar which did reference that area.

Adding to those; Defender of the Hand, Defender of the First|Last|One, Wall Guard, Lost Ground Fighter, Lost Savage.

>I haven't heard many/any ideas to fit the rough/gruff/mean/nasty paladin title category.

On the Paladin-ish side, taken from documented game design.

"Botolf is also the god of fallen paladins, and is known to manifest in tarnished armor in need of a polish."

Defiler, Besmircher, Slanderer, Tainted Knight, Corruptor, Corrupted Knight, Unkempt Squire

"Rutilor is the defender of the gods. He judges with kindness and even-handedness, and is ferocious in what he defends. A patron of paladins, Rutilor will stalwartly defend anyone who he feels is getting a raw deal."

Enough for now. Enjoy.

Umm.. no...!!!

Our national broadsheets/tabloids have 'classes' depending one who reads them and who they're aimed at (most papers prefer one political party over the others, some are aimed at business men, others for general readers).

Some papers like.. The Star and The Sun are 'workers papers' and aimed at those who don't give a hoot about politics but prefer the day's gossip.

In such papers.. page 3 has a topless lady posing for the birdy....

Not QUITE sport..

They are never topless!! They wear skimpy outfits. And while I believe The Star is on page 3, The Sun is usually at the end of the "newspaper". We are talking here about the Canadian construction worker newspapers, aye?

Thats okay I know you'll get through it rubs

So deprived are you that they must be reduced to wearing skimpy clothing sighs

Kidding aside, Dark Visionary sounds more like an evil moon mage, but something more akin to Fallen Lord, Defiler, Souless, Tainted those fit nice.

How about Assassin? I'm thinking low-but-not-black soul + 200 or more in at least one weapon skill of each category (ie, one blunt, one edged, etc) + 30 charisma.

How about Fatereaver?

Fanatic?

Doombringer (didn't this used to be a barb title?)

Fury (female)

Those barbarians seem rough/gruff/mean/nasty, how about swiping some of their titles (pun intended)?

Conquerer/Conquistador

J'Lo, no that other one

harbinger is in there as a MM title at very high ranks.
Assassin, which someone mentioned earlier, is a criminal title.

while "armor of God" might not be suitable for Dragonrealms, perhaps once the additional affiliation titles are put in by the Cleric team, maybe there could be some type of titles relating to the 39 <or the western gods for prydaen and rakash> and gorbesh <gnomes and kaldar>- although I believe the 39 would be easier to do at this point because they can be based on the characters last favor orb; and as yet one cannot get favors from the later 2 groups.

As Rutilor is the "sponsor" of the Paladin guilds, perhaps titles connected to him would be appropriate

Yeah, should've put Armor of <your god here>. I would rather let pallies just use whatever god they choose, rather than base it on whatever favor orb they last used. This is coming from a pallie on M'Riss...heh.

>>Fatereaver

Leave anything with Fate in it to the moon mage, fatereaver sounds to close to fateweaver anyways.

>>Doombringer (didn't this used to be a barb title?)

Not sure about barb title, but Doomsayer is a MM title.

>>Fury (female)

Fury already exists, I believe its a weapon title.

In general none of these titles mean an evil paladin, just mean someone whose good at killing things, that has nothing to do with being an evil paladin... if anything those titles are more general then they are specific to a paladin.
