A while back when I got the chance to be a player for a bit, I ended up building a pathfinder half celestial paladin (who really should have lost his paladin card a few times) I had a tendency to use diplomacy to obtain surprise rounds. For instance when we ran into the evil wizard king of this one country we were talking with him politely I had rolled diplomacy to convince him to surrender and in mid sentence yelled shoot him to our ranger.

Reminds me of that one scene in Indiana Jones 3.

Some settings allow CG Paladins, whom love this tactic.

In my settings, I removed alignments as a actual gameplay rule or requirement, after reading a story of this guy who rolled a paladin, fell instantly, and was killed by guards cuz the Town he was in had a law about worshipping gods that wasn't theirs, disputed not getting a chance to say or do anything.

Being a Paladin should be about your GODS rules and laws, even if the Kingdoms laws contradict or demonize them... I know the above story is about a Paladin hater, and the RAW isn't that cruel, but it's not clear on the difference between some random towns laws, and what actually MATTERS to the paladin.

So in any game I DM as long as your upholding the intention and spirit of whatever God you chose, you alignment does not matter.

I also have a system in place to be a Paladin of an "Ideal", but that's another story entirely.

The paladin oh the ideal of Wonder was the Highest PC I've ever had to DM for XD

Right Now I am playing a character who has a -25 to bluffing, so I can't lie at all. it has led to some interesting results...

Now is that something you gave yourself or have you actually managed to accrue -25 worth of penalties to bluffing?

Agreed. Plus, care to provide an example of the hilarity?

Was playing an exalted game recently. My character was one of the less physical, high-social characters. Cared about very little other than herself, except where kids were involved, which was berserk button time. Was in some wyld mutant's camp, one of the other social monkeys had the spotlight, and the rest of us are hanging back. So while our chosen face for the evening was inside the tent, the ST us a description of what was going on outside the tent. Including one of the wyld mutants chewing on a very ... very ... small ... human femur. I was the one to roll Luffy's diplomacy die on that day.

Why bother rolling? I would've just gutted the #$%&*!@# on the spot.

Probably the same reason Luffy does.
