Should paladins donate? Options

[Sikret]

Since the Expanded Paladin Stronghold will probably be the next in the queue, I want to know your opinion about whether a paladin protagonist should be forced to donate a weekly amount of gold to the poor.

I'm only thinking of adding this feature for when the protagonist is a paladin. Should it be for any paladin kit or only for a new kit I will probably add to the game? Or do you think that such an idea is not really interesting at all? If you like the idea how much do you suggest as the donation rate? The poll contains both questions.

In either case, I will postpone implementing it to when I actually and completely add the Expanded Paladin Stronghold to the mod.

I voted 'Yes' and for there to be a dependence on level on how much is expected to be donated. When the stronghold is first gained (after defeating Conster and rescuing Garren's child) the paladin will probably be about level 12. At this point about 2000 a week seems reasonable. At higher levels I think this should increase to more like 4000 or 5000. Maybe even more.

I think this is a good idea, it forces the player to control their gold spending and keep some aside for donation. Some people might find that annoying but I think it's a nice reflection of the fact that it's not supposed to be easy to be a paladin; this is the sort of sacrifice a paladin has to make.
