Until he passes his previous level, he'll only get 1HP as he levels (but at least he'll get a spell). However, you can take him back to town each time he levels and buy new skills at the guilds. If he's a member of Warrior guild, he can buy Strength, from the Temple he can purchase Spirituality, from the Magic Shoppe, he can get Intellect. But once you start buying skills, IMHO you might prefer to buy better Sword skills, etc., since you have to spend so many skill points on these to reach higher levels.
I'm assuming you're pretty new to the game, because there's been much discussion on this topic on this and other boards. I've found it's a good idea for each character to join as many guilds as they can, as soon as they can. Your Paladin can join both the Warriors guild and the Temple Guild. There are some roles which crossover guilds - for example, your fighter-type person can buy role ascension to Samurai in the Warrior guild, then as a Samurai-in-training, he can join the Magic guild. Once he's joined, he can cancel the Samurai training and continue on as a Paladin, with the added bonus that he retains membership of the Magic guild and can train at the Magic Shoppe at each level, as well. He will still be able to train as a Samurai later on if you like, since he never completed the training before cancelling. Costs a bundle of money, but there's plenty of ways around that.
Have fun! This is a wonderful (and addictive) game.
