demolish all good and lawful acts to replace with evil and chaos. His other
mission is to be the supreme ruler of all (even Gods). They will be demanding
and unmerciful to all he cannot take advantage of. Anti-Paladins will dress
in dark colors(Gray, black, dark red, and dark purple). An Anti-paladin has
no choice but to kill all paladins and good characters that stand in his way
of domination. If an Anti-paladin commits a good act, then he must sacrifice
a female virgin and must make alter of bone and is worth 1000gp (gems, gold
decorations, etc....).

Battling Paladins:
When Paladin is detected, they will automatically converge on an open area
and greet one another by drawing weapons. When this happens, a force will
surround them so that no one can interfere. This force is unbreakable until
battle is finished. The battle will end when one of them is destroyed (cannot
be brought back to life by anything less than a Wish Spell).

Dark Blade: In the hands of any character other, than an Anti-Paladin, it is
a +2 sword. In the hands of an anti-paladin, However, it creates a magic
resistance of 50% in a 5 ft radius, despells magic of the level of magic use
equal to the exp level of the anti-paladin, and inflicts +10 points of damage
upon lawful good opponents.
