You could add Anomen and make him fail his test. Thus he won't be so far away from your alignment anymore. [/QUOTE]LOL

Yeah, I thought about that, but I would still be a good guy. I wouldn't want the poor sod to fail his test, plus his remarks about "following the righteous path" and "for the Order" would drive me nuts. Also, since I usually play good anyway, Anomen ends up in most of my parties, so after a while you get tired of hearing about the "ill-conceived group" (that he is a part of!).

Besides, the Holy Liberator gets the turn undead ability of a paladin (only lags 2 levels behind, so still useful), can cast some cleric spells just like regular paladin (so really can use Jaheira as the only priest in the party, especially if you get regeneration items), but loses the lay on hands ability. However, he gets the ability to protect the group from mental abilities once per day per 4 levels, so eliminates the need to memorize Chaotic Commands. He could memorize all of the clerical buffs (DUHM, Chant, Bless, etc.) and Holy Smite, and have Jaheira memorize healing and anti-mage spells. Really, Anomen is not needed in this group.
