Assume a character is a Multiclassed Vigilante Paladin-
One of the Vigilante's identities can have an alignment that is not Lawful Good. It can be assumed that while in the non-Lawful Good identity the character does not have access to their Paladin abilities.
But what about when they change identities? Would the wording of Dual Identity allow for only one identity to be a paladin and the other to be less powerful but free of the restrictions of being a Paladin, or would simply changing identities (and alignments) count as "breaking the paladin's code?"
How would this work?

For the purpose of meeting a qualification for a feat, class, or any ability, he is only eligible if both of his alignments meet the requirements.
If you aren't Lawful Good as both identities, you would lose your paladin powers. However, the Zealot archetype can gain some quasi-paladin powers such as smite evil.

Yup. You could have a Vigilante/Gray Paladin with identities in more than one of the gray paladin's legal alignments though.

Good catch! I missed that in my reading. Thanks.
