Keep in mind that changing her class to Paladin doesn't actually give her any innate abilities (Lay On Hands, etc) that paladins have. You'll have to do those manually, using SK as well. What it *will* do is allow her to use weapons reserved for paladins.
In Neverwinter Nights, which uses the 3rd Ed ruleset, there are no race restrictions on class, so Mazzy can be the shortest, stumpiest, plumpiest lil' paladin around.
