Yes that's totally possible. And honestly I was a little disappointed no one seemed to be interested in that quest line. So I'd be thrilled to let you run with that angle. We should give your character a trinket of some sort connecting them to the throne. Like a broken locket or a birthmark. [/quote]

Sounds good! Thank you!

[quote=@Denalz]]I will say I'm not crazy about the idea of your paladin not having any faith affiliation whatsoever. At the very least I think I'm would want to see a strong and clearly defined moral code your character swears to uphold. In addition, I think it would be very helpful if your character at least had some soft opinions about the three major faiths in this setting (The Sacred Flame, The Falling Fire, and the Old Gods). I'm more than happy to give you info on those things or answer any questions you might have to help you get these details settled.  

If you're interested here's a link to the "Oath of Hexes" subclass for paladins created for the Drakkenheim campaign...

I already took a look at the Oath of Hexes, and I don't think that really fits with what I have in mind. ^^" 
I felt that the Oath of Watchers is a better fit because she would be trying to protect people from the monsters/Eldritch abominations and she would be facing whatever waits in that crater. 

I still would like to keep my Paladin secular and separate from a religious faction. I imagine that my character has met at least one person who justified their atrocities with faith and religious quotes. That is something that she despises the most. 

I am thinking that she does have a strong moral code where she wants to protect the people around her as best as she can. She believes in community, loyalty, and trying to leave the world a better place than it was. After all, if people don't look out for each other, than the world is doomed. She, herself, is alive because people were willing to help her. She wants to pass on that kindness forward in her life.

Of course, she's mortal and her flaw is that she doesn't believe that her actions are enough. Her alcoholism also comes from the fact that she failed to protect someone dear to her.  

The Oath of Watchers has the values of Diligence, Loyalty, and Discipline. When it comes to Diligence, she fits the bill because she is extremely wary of anything not mortal extending boons. She has enough Discipline to not get drunk in extremely dangerous areas or when she's working. 

[i](TLDR: She believes in doing what's right, and actions speak louder than words. ^^")[/i]

I will need more information on the religious sects to give a soft opinion on them. ^^"
