Definately the Paladin, pretty much matches the fighter in melee, but with a limited spellcasting ability. As a drow you get natural spell resistance, also, when you get the carosmyr/ caro-sumat (Cant remember which is IWD, and I know there spelled wrong) and the major magic resistance it gives, plus get yourself neds lucky-nucky, both loops of tymora, and an awsome AC, and you pretty much never miss with major Magic/ Melee resistance. On top of all that you get limited clerical buffs that make the paladin all the more awsome.

So, paladin all the way.
