The Setting

Paladins' Quest is set in the Tellurian Isles, a large archipelago consisting of hundreds of islands amidst a vast sea. Far to the east is the continent of Empyrea, home of the Emperor who is also ruler of Telluria.

The Tale of the Good King
The Emperor sent his son to rule over Telluria as king. The son was betrayed and murdered by Inimicus, one of the Emperor's nobles. However, the son rose from the dead and claimed the crown. He then returned to Empyrea but promised to come back to Telluria. His followers patiently await the return of the one they call the Good King.

Inimicus's War and the Paladins
Since then, Inimicus has seized power over much of Telluria and wages war on the supporters of the Good King. In response, the king's followers have formed havens, sanctuaries where they can escape from Inimicus's repression. To protect the havens, the followers formed the Order of Paladins, brave warriors who form the bulwark of defense against Inimicus's attacks.

Palmyra
Our initial campaign will begin on the island of Palmyra. The isle is ruled by Duke Rodrik, once loyal to the Emperor but who has now asserted his independence. He claims that the King is dead and that the Emperor has abandoned the people. Therefore, he is determined to go his own way, ruling from his castle at Airedale.

There are still loyal followers of the Good King on Palmyra, and they have protested the Duke's defection. In return, the Duke has arrested the most vocal critics and is harassing other royalists. They are now looking to create a new safe haven.

Merry Christmas

"And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord."

Luke 2:10-11 (KJV)

Paladins, raise a hallelujah to the birth of our King!

Updated Paladin Wish List

Here is an updated list of wanted items for my paladin kit:

Let's start at the top. I like this plastic helmet from Red Dragon Armoury. Apparently it only comes in one size but should fit me.

EDIT
Actually, I really like the entire Red Dragon knight errant kit (helmet, cuirass, pauldrons, vambraces, and greaves). I would still like the greaves below, for Dagorhir, but those are now much lower priority)

I'll need a padded coif underneath. I've long been interested in this one (size S/M) available from Medieval Collectibles.

I already have leather arm armor and a brigandine. I would like some new shirts for underneath, in black and white, size XL. Wish has them at good prices.

I also could use a new belt. Something simple like this works.

I also want another pair of hosen (black size L)

For added protection I am interested in a chainmail warskirt.

I also like these leather greaves (brown size 14)
