Zandalari Paladins are disrespectful

[Theronarum-magtheridon (Theronarum)]

EDIT I meant to post this with Empedocles.

@Sylvare-argent-dawn

I love how this whole arguement can be dismantled by mentioning Draenei

As you can see from the previous replies of mine that you haven’t read, you see that I respect the Draenei and the way they use their Light. The Zandalari Paladins are a metaphysical middle finger specifically for the pious Human races because the Kul Tirans won’t be able to play as a Paladin…

@Sylvare-argent-dawn

The light can be summoned purely on willpower, that is the canon, judging from that zandalari paladins are within the realm of posability.

They already ‘exist’ as Zandalari Prelates and they summon the Light through the Loa.

@Sylvare-argent-dawn

In DnD sure, your alignment is even locked to lawful good there, but this isn’t dnd.

I already gave great arguments for why Paladins in WoW are also like that in my previous posts. To save you some time:

Zandalari Paladins are disrespectful

Before I will respond to the individual points made, allow me to strengthen my argument. As I have said, the Paladins were not 'created' because of any other reason except the wish to deliver justice. People - innocents - were dying due to the endless war with the Horde, and they needed strong and capable fighters with the greatest honour to protect the weak and deliver justice to the world again, a world shattered by war and conflict. The Paladins were NOT chosen simply because they were good …

Or

@Theronarum-magtheridon

This is also the reason why Paladins are what they are; they are not agents of justice because they want enforce their own vision of justice, but because they want to deliver the justice of the Light. Paladins are, in a way, interpreters of the Light, like judges are interpreters of the law in a society with a civil law system. There are also Paladins who are misguided in that, but since they still have that relation with the Light we can still call them Paladins.

You can argue that the Prelates interpret the will of the Loa, but I reply that exactly that makes them something different than the Paladins – Paladins serve nothing else than the powers they use, while Prelates worship the Loa instead of the Light.

Note that I am doing the exact same thing as you did, I look at the various races of Azeroth who can be Paladins, and describe their attributes. Apart from the debatable Tauren, all other Paladins have developed a relationship with the Light (even the Blood Knights), unlike the Zandalari Prelates, who use the Light merely as a tool.

The rest of your arguments are irrelevant. Also, if anyone wishes to respond to my points, feel free to do so but at least read the rest of the replies so I do not have to repeat myself.
