In the paragon tier, your character is a shining
example of heroism, set well apart from the masses.
Your class still largely determines your capabilities. In
addition, you gain extra abilities in your specialty: your
paragon path.
When you reach 11th level, you choose
a path of specialization, a course that defines who you
are within a certain narrow range of criteria. You are
able to travel more quickly from place to place, perhaps
on a hippogriff mount or using a spell to grant your
party flight.
In combat, you might fly or even teleport
short distances. Death becomes a surmountable obstacle,
and the fate of a nation or even the world might hang in
the balance as you undertake momentous quests.
You navigate uncharted regions and explore long-forgotten
dungeons, where you can expect to fight sneaky
drow, savage giants, ferocious hydras, fearless golems,
rampaging barbarian hordes, bloodthirsty vampires,
and crafty mind flayers. When you face a dragon, it is a
powerful adult who has established a lair and found its
place in the world. Again, much like you.
We are looking to actually add a relational database of all the paragon paths, and maybe in the future a paragon path skill/feat generator program. However, due to time constraints, this will be put off until the rest of the site is complete. To find them NOW, buy the books at the store. It's a great way to support the games, as well as your local game store.
