Zealous Myrmidon (Fighter/Paladin)
Many deities of goodly persuasion draw clerics and paladins to serve in their cause. However, those among the ranks of the common soldiers, elite guards, or kindhearted mercenaries who heed the call of the divine and enter into service of such powers. Granted a portion of divine insight and power, the zealous myrmidon is slowly emerging from obscurity. As these martial champions of light have increased in number, the churches’ hierarchies have come to utilize these devout and skillful warriors in small companies with the sole purpose of defending the faith against their enemies. With his martial training and divine powers, the zealous myrmidon is a strong proponent for the cause of good and can hold his own against the wicked and foul denizens arrayed against the forces of righteousness.
