Woot. :D Heaps of really stiff competition, so I guess it came down to the toss of a coin (roll of a D20?) in the end.</p>
<p>Regarding Bigdaddyjug's question, yes, the character was retired after that session, and Zaheeda was retired at 12 (that game made her 12). I had considered retiring her as dead, it was a pretty awesome and very Paladin-y death (used Paladin's Sacrifice to save another character, then died next round due to full attack + greatclub crit), but if I didn't I couldn't write this!</p>
<p>Time to spill a little secret for Jeff Mahood... I hate paladins too. ;) This was my first one in all my time of playing D&D and I started with the old Eye of the Beholder games (aka early 2nd Edition). It was a distinct challenge for me and I enjoyed it wholeheartedly. Zaheeda cured me of my Paladin-hate.</p>
<p>I loved Zaheeda for all the little details. Her full plate was called "Faith" (because "a paladin's armour is faith"), her weapon was originally a wedding gift (heirloom weapon) which had some cool in-story reason for getting changed due to the errata for that trait (see below).</p>
<p>Every time I made a save, I'd say a little thing:</p>
<p>Fort - "A paladin's body is iron."
<br />
Ref - "A paladin's feet move with grace."
<br />
Will - "A paladin's heart never falters."</p>
<p>If she got full attacked, then "A paladin's armour is faith" came out.</p>
<p>It was a fun, powerful, interesting character and Dawnstriker, that lecherous but playfully funny horse, was probably the most interesting and awesome bit.</p>
<p>If I ever need to play the character again, I have a "Getting The Band Back Together" story kicking around in my head, but for now... Zaheeda's been through a lot, I'm content to let her rest.</p>
<p>Some other stuff I've written for the character is here:</p>
<p>(This regarded a subplot about her husband and comprised a series of letters that I'd open at appropriate times during games, such as when the GM went to the bathroom or the like, or after)</p>

<p>Yours was my favorite read and I'm glad Jeff agrees! Alas, he was mistaken on what the best line was. This is unquestionably the best part (IMO): <div class="messageboard-quotee">Quote:</div><blockquote>"Enclosed is my wayfinder, a letter for him, and enough coin to dispatch a wizard to his home plane to deliver it. This is my final act of cowardice. He deserves so much better. I will regret this action for the rest of my life, but I cannot bear to tell noble Dawnstriker in person that I have fallen."</blockquote><p>The notion that a paladin would be ashamed to release his steed was brilliant. It made me break out laughing at work, favorite your post, and then realize how much fun it must be to have you roleplaying like that at a table.
<p>Well done!</p>Congratulations Sasayaki!
