The '''Knights of Westmarch''' who felled the armies of mighty [[Leoric]] are pure at heart and closely follow the teachings of [[Zakarum]], the Religion of the Light. A battle-ready warrior for whom faith is a shield, the Paladin fights for what he believes to be right. His steadfastness gives him powers to bestow blessings to his friends and wreak cruel justice on foes. There are those who call the Paladin an overwrought zealot, but others recognize in him the strength and goodness of the [[Light]].
