Dark Paladin

Playtest 3.2 / 4th Ed

Build Cost: 5

Purchase: Once

Tagged: No

Duration: Constant

Skill Type: Faith

Prerequisites: Plot Approval

Skill List: Dark Paladin

Skill Rules & Full Description

This skill grants the character a limited immunity to necromancy. The character is immune to any undead creation spell in the Necromancy School. Damaging spells from that school still effect the character normally and a Death Slave spell will bring the character to the Brink of Death. Undead creating sorcery rituals affect the character normally.

This skill makes the character permanently immune to all fear effects.

A player may only have the Dark Cleric or Dark Paladin skill at one time. It is possible, with Plot approval and appropriate in-game roleplay, for a character to change from a Dark Paladin to a Dark Cleric by swapping this skill for Dark Cleric, with the appropriate Build Point change
