Zed Duke of Banville said:
The creator of the paladin class disagreed with you quite strongly:

"A player with a Paladin character asks if this character can put someone to death (who) is severely scarred and doesn't want to live. Although the Sage Advice reply was a strong negative, the actual truth of the matter might lie somewhere else. The player does not give the name of the deity served by the Paladin. This is the key to lawful good behavior in AD&D terms. Remember that good can be related to reality ofttimes, but not always. It might also relate to good as perceived in the past, actual or mythical. In the latter case, a Paladin could well force conversion at swordpoint, and, once acceptance of the true way was expressed, dispatch the new convert on the spot. This assures that the prodigal will not return to the former evil ways, sends the now-saved spirit on to a better place, and incidentally rids the world of a potential troublemaker. Such actions are good, in these ways:
1. Evil is abridged (by at least one creature).
2. Good has gained a convert.
3. The convert now has hope for rewards (rather than torment) in the afterlife.
4. The good populace is safer (by a factor of at least 1).
It is therefore possible for a Paladin to, in fact, actually perform a mercy killing such as the inquiring player asked about, provided the tenets of his or her theology permitted it. While unlikely, it is possible."

- Gary Gygax, "From the Sorceror's Scroll", Dragon Magazine #38 (June 1980)

Thank you, Gary (and Zed). Your words have spurred me onward toward righteous bloodshed. :salute:

You supposedly can customize their class but not their appearance or race. I'm not too clear on that though since the info on this seems to be vague for no reason. Guess we'll find out soon.
