I am currently running an adventure for 2 paladins. They're fresh out of
paladin school (currently 2nd level) and doing a term of service for the
temple of Pelor.
The problem? One of the PCs is far more suited to being a paladin of
Heironeous. He's into jousting, wants to be a cavalier, etc. Basically,
the player just chose Pelor without thinking much about it during
character creation, largely because the town I had ready was run by a
temple of Pelor. Now, he'd like to change to Heironeous.
We've come up with a cover story for his character: His mother was cured
of a deadly disease by priests of Pelor, so his father insisted he enter
their service to repay the debt. Being lawful, the priests of Heironeous
will insist he first complete the term of service he committed to for
Pelor and then send him on a quest before his switch is "official."
Does this sound reasonable? How do you think the temple of Pelor would
react? Should he suffer any penalties for his change?
