Supposing a paladin will answer the cries of help and come across the scene of a gnoll child bullying some other children (cruel mockery and mild violence), and would resolve the issue by using his quivering palm ability to instantly slay the gnoll, would the paladin fall?

>literally demons
Nah, he'll be fine.

Yes. Children are still developing and the paladin could use this as a opportunity to teach the gnoll better in the hopes that by the time he's grown enough to do serious harm, he'll be a better creature.

>quivering palm
That aside, since children don't have souls it is impossible for the paladin to discern their true alignment and the gnoll child might just be a really fucking ugly human, so it's best to not get involved.

I think this is the single dumbest paladin falling question I've ever seen. Congratulations.

I don't know, I think there's this absurd charm to it.
And so long as the paladin doesn't lose faith, he will not fall. If he can strike down a child with his... quivering palm... and still believe he did the right thing, then it all works out all right to him.

>gnoll
naw
>>53291636
You shouldn't have said quivering palm that way, now it sounds weird.
>>53291989
The funny thing is that paladins don't get monk abilities.

>paladin
>quivering palm
Yeah nah, this is clearly bait.

Have you seriously been posting that kind of thread at leats three times a week for nearly one year?
That's what I call dedication.

Good sir, Mastermind is a meme as old as /tg/.
Oh for fuck's sake, OP.
>>53293398
That's odd, I've been here for two or three years and started noticing those threads onlyshortly before last summer.
>>53293471
I've been here almost since the beginning and I've seen these threads just as much.
I feel like the last couple have been the sort of deliberately stupid (wrong class abilities, etc.) that I can't help but like them a little. Like it was a different guy with his tongue firmly in cheek. I dunno.
