Paladin

From Diablo Wiki

The Knights of Westmarch who felled the armies of mighty Leoric are pure at heart and closely follow the teachings of Zakarum, the Religion of the Light. A battle-ready warrior for whom faith is a shield, the Paladin fights for what he believes to be right. His steadfastness gives him powers to bestow blessings to his friends and wreak cruel justice on foes. There are those who call the Paladin an overwrought zealot, but others recognize in him the strength and goodness of the Light.

[edit] In-game speech

In Diablo II and Diablo II: Lord of Destruction, characters can be heard saying things when they reach certain areas or initiate scripted events. The following information is a list of one-liners made by the Paladin.

[edit] Act I

(upon entering the Blood Moor): I shall cleanse this wilderness.

(upon entering the Den of Evil (area)): Evil dwells within this cave.

(upon clearing the Den of Evil (area)): My duty here is done.

(upon entering the Burial Grounds): This holy place has been desecrated.

(upon slaying Blood Raven): Sisters, there was no other way.

(upon touching the Cairn Stones): Maybe Akara could dispel the mysteries within these stones.
