I mean, paladins are creatures who thrive on extremes. Being a neutral Paladin would be difficult, unless their oath had something to do with balance and/or harmony? Typically speaking, the Paladin will fall back to their oath when confronted with a new situation. And oaths are rarely flexible enough to allow for middle ground.
But yeah, Paladin of Vengeance is often Doom Guy and/or Batman. Zero chill, because they can’t stand for injustice, and their oath calls them to make things right even when the law fails to do so.
John Wick is a great example of a Dex Paladin of Vengeance
John Wick is a Dex Fighter
John Wick is a Dex Barbarian
Neutral paladin is just in it because his mom sent in the application to the temple and he was too lazy to find a different job. He just clocks in and clocks out each day to collect a paycheck. He takes a 10 minute break every 2hrs to smoke some weed which he refers to as "reflecting on God's blessings".
Alternatively, I think maybe Hellboy is an example of Neutral Good paladin?
neutral paladins are defense lawyers
