The following table lists other known holy orders of paladins, the deity they hold as a patron, and the character classes open to paladins of that order for the purpose of multiclassing freely (orders of paladins that do not allow multiclassing freely, such as the Swords of the High One -paladins of Azuth- are not listed.) Some deities have more than one associated order of paladins; these are listed sequentially. Not all paladins have to be associated with an order, but only those that are part of an order can multiclass freely. Other lawful good, lawful neutral, and neutral good deities that are not listed here can have paladins, but there are no known paladin orders for those faiths (in effect, paladins of those faiths are uncommon enough that rarely are there enough to band together and form an order). Paladins of other gods may not multi-class back and forth between Paladin and any other class.


Deity Order Multiclass Allowed Description

Baravar Knights of the Shadowy Cloak cleric, fighter, illusionist,rogue This order keeps a low profile in gnome commushadow communities and seeks to eliminate goblinoids, kobolds, and other evil humanoids, for these creatures cannot be redeemed. They work secretly so as to not attract attention or retaliation to local gnome communities.
Berronar Berronar's Valkyries cleric, dwarven defender This Truesilver order is exclusively female. They observe battles until they see a group of allies in particular danger, at which point they charge in to help. Most favor training involving mobility in battle.

Horus-Re Claws of the Sun and the Ankh cleric, divine champion, divine disciple, hierophant Caring little for day-to-day politics, this relatively new order spends most of its time fighting servants of Set (or even Anhur, when he has been causing trouble).
Ilmater Order of the Golden Cup Cleric, divine disciple, hierophant This order is dedicated to healing and protecting the sick, innocent, and weak, rather than seeking out evil to destroy. They are not opposed to such actions, but see their role as something different.
Ilmater Companions of the Noble Heart Divine champion, fighter The Companions are the aggressive counterparts to the Golden Cup, for they are tasked with eliminating the cruel and those who are known to enjoy the torture and suffering of others. The church of Loviatar is their greatest enemy.

Sune Sisters and Brothers of the Ruby Rose divine champion --
Torm Order of the Golden Lion Any one other class --
Tyr Knights of Holy Judgment cleric, divine champion This order focuses on the more lawful aspects of Tyr's philosophy, and hunts and punishes criminals and lawbreakers, particularly devils (seen as abhorrent perversions of a lawful society).
Tyr Knights of the Merciful Sword fighter, divine champion This order is focuses on upholding good in the world as defined by Tyr, and slays all kinds of evil monsters, particularly demons.
Yondalla Shields of Yondalla monk (Hin Fist) --
Yondalla Wayward Wardens cleric, ranger This group is a loose fellowship of wandering halflings who feel the need to see the world and aren't tied to any particular settlement. They protect halfling communities whenever they are found in need of help.

Term Explaination- Freely Multiclass The term freely multiclass means that the character can go back and forth between paladin and listed classes. This does not mean that a paladin cannot multiclass outside of this list. It means simply that if the class is not on this list, the paladin cannot go back and level as a paladin after picking another class.
