Paladins of Lucinda

[Pibemanden]

Now that I have got some time to study the rulebook again I have some questions about how a Paladin of Lucinda would act. I understand that he wont be insulting people that use their arcane/divine powers to raise undead. But how would he act if someone used his/her powers to harm people that are innocent?
Being a paladin after all he would be Lawful good and wouldn't think that harming the innocent servers any greater purpose and the paladin would properly hunt down the person who did this and see to that some kind of punishment will be set upon this wrongdoer. I know that this has nothing to do with Lucinda as a diety but the paladin would still feel that he is doing something good at least according to his personal "belifs" in justice.

I think you are just confusing two aspects of a character.
  A Paladin of Lucinda holds one thing above all: The Protection of the Weave. That is it. That is the bottomline for this type of paladin. At the end of the day if the weave was served then he/she did their job.
  Yet the question you are asking is considering an aspect of personality beyond duty. A Paladin of Lucinda is not bound by the codes and rules that a normal paladin is. Your Toran or Rofirenite is normally bound by a code whose first rule is to protect innocents and uphold the law. Now while a Paladin of Lucinda doesn't necessarily disrespects the law, their "lawfulness" comes from following the rules of being a Lucindite, thus if they ever have to break a human law to protect the weave it would not be considered against their character.
“Tolerate no harm to come to me or mine, my gifts freely given to those who follow used in defense of my body in The Weave and my Soul in the Coran arta i' Tha vair maen. For as surely as that which takes from life takes from me, that which takes from me takes from life.”[/i] – Fifth Coran arta i’ Tha vair

And then you have their Vows:

Lady of the Weave, I have heard your call and I will answer. I vow to be your servant and protect those who serve you. I shall defend Your Faith, Your Faithful and the Weave to the best of my abilities. I shall seek out those who corrupt the Weave and bring them to justice. I shall accompany and protect those who work in Your name.  By my word, I am Yours.

See where I'm going? Nowhere there does it say "Protect the innocent". Its all about standing by a firm set of rules to protect Lucinda and their faithful. So while a paladin of Lucinda might truly have a good nature to assist an individual who is in need, shall it come between that and Weave, the second will always have priority.

Hope that helps somehow.

Ok, so if I see someone using their magic to promote an evil cause I can't stop them from doing so because they're touching opun the weave?

[Pankoki]

If someone is using magic to promote an evil cause you should stop them because they are promoting an evil cause, not because they are using magic.
  Think of it this way. Blood uses magic and casts meteor swarms and so on. You still should fight him.
  But to hunt someone for the mere reason that they are a necromancer is a different reason. If you hunt someone because they are making undead rise and destroy the countryside, its an evil person using the tools they have to cause evil. But that doesnt mean that its a raid on necromancy. You can use slay living to kill that evil person and it will be a good deed.

Please remember that Pankoki is not justifying PvP when he says uses Slay Living on the person raising the dead,ect...

[Pankoki]

Oh yeah, if this is a player vs. player thing then you have to stick to server rules.

[Pibemanden]

Now just a final question; the work of the paladin would then be defined as this:

"The Servants will go out of their way to protect, preserve, and maintain the Weave and actively seek out those who try to corrupt or destroy the Weave. This does not mean that evil magic users are sought out and destroyed, but rather that unnatural use of magic is sought out and stopped, like magical experiments gone awry, wild magic areas, unbound fiends, or liches. "
Taken from the description of the servants of the weave.

And of course helping the clergy of Lucinda.
So when I go about killing people or creatures that are evil it's just as a good person and not as a Lucindite

[Pankoki]

That about sums it up.

Thanks for your help. This really made it clear for me how Storold should act if he becomes a paladin of Lucinda.
