Death Knight Paragon Path

We came up with the following Paragon Path for one of the PC’s that will be available at the game we’re running at GenCon this year: For Love of Evil. In that game, the players will be playing evil 30th level characters trying to free the evil god chained in the depths of the abyss.

One of those characters is Kard Bad-Dorum, an orcish paladin who has become a death knight.

Path Features
