PALADIN.jpg

Paladin (1.2) Adventurer Class

Paladins are Holy Warriors that travel the lands looking to slay evil. All cultures have the Paladin class, but the look and style is specific to their own culture, region, faith, or philosophy.

 

Playing the Paladin

The paladin is one of the most defensive martial classes in the Dawn Lands LARP game. It is one of the few classes that can wear Level 3 (heavy) armor at first level. If you do not want to be a holy warrior in full armor then you may consider playing a different class. The Paladin also has a large range of weapons to choose from, can heal in limited amounts, and are effective against some certain types of monsters.
