True story: Aldric is this essay. 
Paladins were always my favorite D&D class. Valosian Cleric is the closest I could get to it.

This is why I was so glad when D&D3.5 put out the Book of Exalted Deeds. After the Book of Vile Darkness, yes, people were all "this is awesome and badass", but then Exalted Deeds came in and showed stuff that was even MORE badass. Not just the character options (which admittedly a lot of it was pretty broken ie. Vow of Poverty), but the good-aligned planar exemplars were mostly more powerful than their evil counterparts AND their background descriptions presented ideals for good PCs to use as examples and live up to.

I loved it! It really gets the point across that you don't have to be a nice person in order to be a good person.
