It is just lazy improv. "I'm charming, charming people fuck."
Valor, swords, whispers, spirits. Creation and some pathfinder ones iv played.
Jdbye
Horny, not necessarily, they do tend to be charming though and always seemed like ladies men.
My swords bard was a very charming tabaxxi. But was all bout them swords tho(also mc'ed into kensei monk) some had charm, most just oddballs
Alweys friendly tho! Exept the whisper bard.. He was devious.. The spirit one was friendly but just rubbed folk the wrong way cus.. Ghosts..

The most fraught question in his order is whether or not to wear armor.
Leather armor. Black, shiny, leather... "armor".
All that skimpy fantasy armour had to come from somewhere.. Just a bunch of straps and strategically placed bits of mail.
AFelineMassofEyes
Wear it
ThatRaccoonGuy
Nobody ever said paladins can't seduce... or that they have to be stuck up... or that Christian ethics even apply in D&D religions
Syovere
Yup. In one of my settings, the local goddess of life (and healing and light) encourages sex. How else do you get more life?
IFoldlyGo
There may be a reason that a 1st level Paladin spell is Detect Disease. Still need a Cleric for Remove Disease though
DrJackBright
As long as they hold firm to their oath, and alignment, they can do what the fuck they want. Just gotta decide what oath it is
toxcrusadr
You’re no fun.
ICollectReactionGifs
Its the paladins code that usually made players rp them as sticks in the mud.
In my experience, a lot of 'bad' paladin players were trying to act like Christian ethos like celibacy and turning the other cheek were 'LG'
And so despite there being no equivalent to Jesus in D&D land, people would play their pallies like Christian proselytizing warriors. Bleh.
SharlayTheBarbarian
My paladin is poly and bisexual, she's crusading to put food on the table
SleeperXib
For my campaigns, I set up a system where a paladin is dedicated to a specific deity so the ethics change depending on your God
rhodesianpolarbear
A great many ancient religions were all about fertility. You worshiped by going to the temple prostitute.

You arent wrong. But bards were created for 2 reasons. 1. To make the dm sigh heavily. 2. To seduce any and everything in the campaign.

painstream
YES! I read that too. LG sex is full consent/disclosure. And they refused to discuss Choatic Evil sex lol.
BeverlyHillsBillie
Christian ethics? That's a joke.
PhooBar
...And an oxymoron.
The idea that sexuality and faith are counter to each other is entirely a recent invention in the scale of human history, it's actually/
more in line with the trend for the holy figures to be the biggest freaks of the whole tribe who'll absolutely rock your world probably/
while making liberal use of every kind of hallucinogenic possible because they literally see it as a ritual of faith to do so.
The5lacker
3.5 Paladin couldn’t, but 5E Paladin basically just requires you to tape “don’t be an asshole” to the inside of your helmet.
Nah. You always could. Even in 2E, which had the harshest paladin code of all, there was no rule against sex and partying.
The fact that there wasn’t a vow of chastity didn’t mean it was okay with casual sex. That’s resoundingly not a binary.
Well I shall await your glorious and enlightening explanation. *Pulls up a chair*
About what, that there’s a range of opinions on sex between “Never” and “Always?”
3PiecesOfBread
Paladins can’t seduce. Your claim that nobody ever said that is now invalid.

kingrd
Paladins are one of the most poorly RP'd and misunderstood character archetypes, even though they have lots of depth to explore
agreed. My favorite class / archetype but it's so poorly used most of the time.
Yeah every Paladin must be a one dimensional stick in the mud, similar to Clerics
Clerics being boring is even less forgivable. You burn with the passion and power of your god, go be a little crazy with it!
Case in point:
Be a Paladin of Eilistraee. Being half naked when not in battle, dance naked in the moon light, fuck and get cool swords.
CAAFlo
Shame that Calistrea can't have paladins (chaos and all). God of sex and revenge
MelodiousDissonance
Be the change you want to see in the d&d world start a paladino's cult and go on a crusade to help people get sex and revenge!
If you are the DM you can do what you want. Male priests and pala of Eilistraee happened because fan talked about it and Ed Greenwood saw it
I mean there's nothing to say chaotic gods can't have paladins or that paladins have to be Lawful, OoA is pretty strongly untethered to law
Avarice4020
5e isn't alignment restricted. Can play a CE paladin if you wanted to
This was Pathfinder. My Paladin was OP as fuck by the end.
My Paladin married a Fey Queen who is technically evil. They constantly try to Redeem/Corrupt eachother.

I had an Amulet of Invulnerability. Once per day for 1 round. I abused the shit outta it for comedy.

She's a epic lvl Rogue for one class. They went on a date to raid a lost legendary temple. He checked for traps by throwing a rock.
Get to the end where she's carefully trying to get the artifact treasure like in Raiders of the Lost Ark.
SerenePrincess013
Was at a table w/ a girl who's paladin was a barfly, who got more ass than the bard.

High Charisma, high Constitution, and disease immunity is a powerful love making combination.
RealRaceRiotsAreAboutGettingBlueshelledInMarioKart
I made a paladin who's too stupid to realize he's a warlock that struck a bargain rather than swear an oath to an ambiguously aligned deity>
He's absolutely fucking useless and its hilarious. The whole campaign is just the party trying to keep me alive and in the dark on my status
sunyudai
I ran a warlock like this - fully believed himself to be a goodly cleric of a good god who had been betrayed and consigned to history. Was..
in fact a NE character with a "Great Old One" pact.

Hey, if God said "Be fruitful and multiply" then a Paladin's gotta do what a Paladin's gotta do.
