Bastion of Light (L20 Paladin)[edit]

Overview[edit]

The Bastion of Light is a shining knight in white armor. With high saves, and the ability to self-buff, he is impervious to most spells. He is a column of light in battle, passively improving nearby allies with his aura, giving them higher AC and saves. In a melee, he can hold his own with divine favor and prayer to boost his attack and damage. Should the need arise, he will ditch his shield and smack away with a two handed sword, smiting all his enemies. Having access to Lay on Hands and unyielding sovereignty, the Bastion of Light can raise heavily injured allies up from the brink of death. Such are his capabilities that he is akin to the shining light at the end of the tunnel.
