Sun themed knight / paladin NPC

[Nosta1300]

So I want to build as an NPC a character based on Gawain from Fate Grand order

He needs to abilities based on the sun and be very hard to damage good AC and Damage reduction . He wields a long sword I see assume flaming for his weapon

He should be level 8

Glancing at a wiki looks like he's a paladin, probably with a feat or two like sunblade or radiant charge. Heavy armor and lay on hands as after the fact DR, plus paladin deflection bonus while smiting evil will do.

I think someone in Japan confused Gawain with Kay and/or Percival. Gawain shouldn't be a pretty boy with sun themed powers.

Any archetype I should take?

And going human how would you do this feats

[avr]

If you want both those feats I named then it goes something like power attack, extra lay on hands, word of healing, sunblade, radiant charge. Unless there's some subtlety which wasn't obvious from a glance at a wiki I wouldn't bother with an archetype.

OK looks good.

Radiant Charge isn't worth it except in very marginal situations. The extra damage you might deal is far less useful than the healing you'd get instead and not being able to determine how many you can use is terrible.

See if the GM will accept Charging Smite from 3.5.
