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
- 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

Bad paladins and good paladins.
Or is Captain Amurica considered a warlock of capitalism?
- Depends on the Captain America
  
  Answer the question.
- Cap's shield is an Eldritch blast of Vibranium.
- Definitely he isn’t. I swear editors have to be the reason for no captain anarchy as a hero yet
  
  Ancap-tain America
- the one with wings on his head is the druid of collard greens.
  there's also a bard/ disco murica called "nomad" I think.
  
  Haha, this perverted druid (non-nature based, but still green $ and at times anti-nature) is kinda a good/fun concept to roleplay.

John Brown started out on the left, but after he died he followed the confederates to Hell and became the one on the right
- I'm pretty sure John Brown was the one on the right well before he was in the ground.
  
  You're right, he made that switch May 23rd, 1856. Started killing demons long before he died.

there's Thanos and his oath of balance...
- That's the one on the right.

- Wait, his original class is Paladin? I've only ever watched the BR dub version (awesome BTW).
  
  It's never really specified. They call him the "cavalier", which in 2e was a kit that either paladins or fighters could take. He occasionally did some sorta-paladiny stuff like when he bubbled with a force bubble type thing to protect his friends

I played a crunchy nature paladin with 8 intelligence. He was like the guy from Grizzly Man

Always thought cap was more chaotic good.
- I'd say he switched from lawful to chaotic over time as his character arc.
  
  I’d argue he always held true to his beliefs, even when the government shifted around him. That’s more lawful than a character who allows their actions to be swayed by external pressure. He’s meant to be the ideal that America strives towards, which would include standing up to the government when it does fucked up shit. He held onto his beliefs and moral compass, even when the government had labeled him a rebel for doing so.
- Paladins can be chaotic good.

Doomguy is a ranger/barbarian who has a personal vendetta against demons after his animal companion was killed.

The Third type is a winged lizard creature so that doesn't really apply here..... unless you want to roll a dragonborn..... huuuuuuuuhhhhhhh?

The third is Nanny Paladin
- So option 1
  
  Nah cap is all "lets punch nazis yeah" nanny paladin is like...eeyore in full plate
