No they actually don't. Arthur followed the Christian faith. Now some of his knights where "pagans" and had different gods. The problem is the place you start in doesn't recognize any other God then Arkay. That said, just take the trait. I'm not that picky since it is in line with the character.
And why were you knighted? asks Merlin.
I was to stubborn to die. I had the barraks and the kitchen to clean after that battle!
Actually it would have been more you showed great valor or chivalry is such hard times.
Remember the realm had been without a ruler for almost 15 years before Arthur took over. While the Duke of the area did his best there where a few things he just didn't have the power to change because he didn't have the power of the crown. Taxes where set at war time taxes for 15 years! He compensated for this by putting his local tax rate at 0. Duke Lukous is also the head of the knight program. He is the one who searches for those who have the potential to be knights.
It would be allowed so long as you keep it to yourself. Since you're not a champion of the faith you just believe in it, it's fine. Some nobles would look down upon it and some of the church would think you naive.
Discussion tread is up!
Yikes! I better pull out my dice, already.
Okay. Not the greatest when compared to others, but still not bad.
I was thinking of submitting a human gallant cavalier
I have something up later.
Alright. After a night of heavy thinking it is looking like a Polearm Master Fighter :p

I will jump into the discussion thread once I am done with the character :p
How much backstory is allowed before it is too much? XD
Never too much!
I wrote three pages, front and back, on a character once. That character got so enrooted into that world, that they kinda bacame cannon... or well her family did.
Okay, here is where I am at so far. All I need is to write a backstory for him and finalize physical features.

I know right! Just so Jelly!
I mean I don't wanna influence but with those stats, I would look at Warpriest or Barbarian. You could make one nasty character with that kind of stats.
Damn those stats

I'd make a Paladin myself.
My submission will be complete tonight at some point. Now its gym time. :-0
Wow, I was one the razor's edge about going to the gym and had to force myself to go. Glad I went, best leg workout I've had since before I hurt my back in October!
Drugs don't quite match the Euphoria of a natural high. IMHO anyway. ;-)
Not doing the right drugs then. ;)

Heh, I'll pass on anything that's better than what I had yesterday.
