Bio

Smooth-talking, amicable, he remembers what it was like to be young and inexperienced, and is great at getting down and talking to anawim on their level. Famous before The Great War broke out in Heaven, he prefers not to talk about his past. It is said the only thing faster than Paladin's hands is his wit, and he uses both to great effect whether he tossing his star-blades or riling up an opponent with a well-timed joke.

History

Great War

When Paladin was an Anawim during The Great War he was summoned by Ramuel to retrieve Caliburn the

unbreakable sword. Paladin quickly grabbed his Airboard from Paddy and flew to The Seven and received the sword from Michael and raced back to Ramuel's command cruiser, only to find that it had been captured by the demon Discord. Paladin engaged Discord but Discord proved too strong. Paladin then took Caliburn and with all his might swung Caliburn at Discord but the unbreakable sword broke. Paladin was rescued however when Paddy used his hammer to smack the metal wall. The sound injured Discord allowing Paladin to escape. Paddy took Paladin to a pylon room which Paladin realised that the melodic sound would hurt Discord. He then had Paddy reforge Caliburn into starblades. When Discord attacked, Paladin threw the starblades at the pylons which bounce off of them and hit more pylons making a melodic sound that killed Discord. After this battle, he was promoted.
