    And, as for the fragility of my characters, I have the unfortunate tendency to use more "squishy" characters than I should.
    Greyhawk Dieties

    The dieties most commonly worshiped by Druids in the Greyhawk setting are Ehlonna (Neutral Good), Obad-Hai (True Neutral), and Phyton (Chaotic Good).

    You can make as many characters as you want at any time. When we start playing, there will be an agreement as to what level the new characters will come in at (but it will probably be somewhere around equal level or one level below).

    Buying off Level Adjustment works like this.

    I have a question: If one of my characters is a Paladin and the other is a Blackguard, will my Paladin become a Fallen Paladin?

    Edit/

    Excuse me pls.

    Character One
    Genji Madara , Human Rogue

    Character Two
    Lysarg Lucavi , Human Paladin

    I'm hoping my next character, a Blackguard will be compatible with the Paladin.

    Sagensyg, you don't have the base BAB and saves down for either of your characters, nor do you have your Paladin's divine grace bonus to saves.

    Also, you haven't spent all 19,000 of your gold, but I do applaud the use of mithral chain shirts which is the best light armor in the game and should probably be used by just about every light armor character by this level. Though why your paladin is not in full-plate, especially with his dexterity bonus is something of a mystery to me.

    I'm lighter on the Paladins associating with evil characters and immediately falling, but the fact that a Blackguard is in a guild that has not one but TWO paladins already (one of whom is an Aasimar for the extra holy) seems a bit odd, no?

    a paladin will never knowingly associate with an evil being, as per the PHB so if you're going to play a blackguard, you'll need to at the very least cast undetectable alignment every day, not to mention all the bluff checks you'll have to make all the time, just a warning, unless BTV decides at this point to disallow paladins, in which case i'll just have to change the selection i made.

    In a guild dynamic the guildmaster will have the final say on recruitment, and depending on how the guild morality is decided he might allow evil characters in.

    Note right now the group has a much stronger good bent, so evil characters are a lot less likely to be accepted (though it's not impossible for them to be accepted into the guild).

    Just note, be they good or evil all characters must have the ability to work with others and not stab each other in the back to be accepted into the guild. That's just sound business.

    The current guild I'm going to be running will be operated by a Grey Guard (Paladin Prestige class). Grey Guards are Lawful Good but are exempt from a lot of the Paladin restrictions. In this case, the Grey Guard will hire anyone who can do the job and do it well to further the cause of good.

    So, should I change my neutral evil character?
    O R'lyeh?

    You don't have to. Grey Guards of high enough level don't fall if they do something that violates the Paladin's code in order to serve the greater good. Just give your neutral evil character a good reason for working with the Grey Guard.

    Basically, Grey Guard gives me a great flavor compromise. There's still the good aspect and service of the greater good, but its a much grittier methodology. Grey Guards can use a lot of means normal paladins cannot (such as torture and interrogation) if it is in service of the greater good.

    I stickied this so it wouldn't get lost.

    I have background for one character. By this weekend I'll have everything done for all three.
