I've been perusing the boards for EFU-specific info on proper paladining, but haven't seen these addressed and I'd like to before I get into interacting with others:

Let's say you have a non-human paladin whose God is the sworn protector of his race.

Would this paladin be expected to provide aid (gratuitous curing) to individuals not of the race? I'm not talking about life/death situations here, but about the kind of "let's all heal up before we move on" kind of curing.

How would the deity feel about him if he DID provide gratuitous curing and use of the paladinly powers to a non-racial unbeliever?

How would a deity feel about the potion brewing paladin selling his wares (obviously never to t evil), but perhaps to non-racial unbelievers?

Faced with a mission such as the brewery, would it be acceptable to engage the defenders with intent to kill, or should he be trying to peaceably subdue and bring them to justice? What about a mission (cannot think of one offhand) where the defenders are not monstrous, but not of his race?

I suppose the underlying theme here is about whether a nonhuman paladin might have something of a double standard....

Finally, I cannot remember seeing a post addressing this issue: Knowing that paladins cannot/should not willingly travel with evil, would they be expected to automatically scan everyone they "might" be traveling with, and does this "scan" have ingame visibility to others (for instance, a ranger kneels when tracking".

Not trying to be annoying here with the long list, but I've never played LG paladin types before who weren't, well, "generic" in their approaches. I'm hoping that playing a non-human paladin offers a chance for capturing some racial flavoring of the class.

*cough* Despite the really nice long list of suggestions posted over in the General Discusison forum, and some additional 60-90 minutes of forum searching on my part, I'd still appreciate some DM input. No offense, but your PC's history won't keep my guy from getting nailed. And I woam working on the assumption here that my character would know what is right/proper behavior even if his player is a little muddy. I have my ideas on how a racial paladin would operate, but I don't want to spontaneously lose my powers because a DM saw me doing something that I should have done differently.

Also, in the interim, I've found one more question/clarification. I've read that paladins will never desecrate the dead (which makes sense). Now: Does this imply that a paladin cannot retrieve loot from defeated foes such as animals, weird monsters that drop useful loot, and humanoid monsters (ogres and the like)?

Related, what is the EFU interpretation of taking shares after a quest, even if my character does no "looting" himself. Usually, I see the whole lot of gear just thrown ina pile and everyone picks - how do we handle differentiating between material that is from bodies (assuming it's a no-no for him to take any of it) and that which is retrieved from chests (or would this, too, be considered stealing/blood money?)..

Sigh. Sorry AGAIN to be long winded, I just want to do things right. As a result, IG I have only accepted those things that have been given to me or picked up from animals (like rat matriarch bits).

Thanks.
