The coming of NWN:SoU and NWN:HotU have seen the introduction of prestige classes. Prestige classes are taken very seriously on Avlis. Even if your PC fulfills the requirements necessary to start gaining levels in a certain prestige class (such as arcane archer or assassin), he will not be able to do so until he also finds and completes a scripted quest tied to that class. The completion of this quest is to signify the pains that must be taken to get the specialized training necessary to gain levels in that prestige class. Not all of these scripted quests have been implemented in Avlis yet – in the meantime a player can have a prestige class 'unlocked' by a DM upon completing a special DM quest, or as a roleplaying award.

It is important to note that three of the prestige classes in NWN are not allowed in Avlis. The first is the Red Dragon Disciple. This is because red dragons are not indigenous to Avlis, so no native Avlissian character can have red dragon blood. The second is the Champion of Torm. Torm is not worshipped in Avlis, so he has no followers here. The third is the Harper Scout. The Harpers are an organization exclusive to the Forgotten Realms and therefore do not exist on Avlis. Avlis also has its own special prestige classes. These are the holy warriors of the nine major gods (see Part II, Chapter 4, Section F). To be able to gain levels in these prestige classes you must gain permission from the player-run religious order of that deity. There are only two exceptions to this. The first is the paladin class. Anyone can choose to gain levels in paladin; however, it is an Avlis rule that all paladins are worshippers of Gorethar. The second is the blackguard prestige class from SoU. Blackguards are the holy warriors of Maleki – as such, they must be CE in alignment. Blackguards who are not CE cannot gain blackguard levels on Avlis.

Avlis Holy Warrior Prestige Class Requirements and Abilities

Paladin (Gorethar, LG)

Requirements: same as always
Abilities: same as always, plus...
1st: Detect Evil 30'

Please be aware that to gain the Detect Evil ability at character creation, it is necessary to have some files installed in your override directory.

1) Extract the files cls_feat_pal.2da and feat.2da from your CoPaP1_0Hak. (You can do this with NWHak in your utils directory.)

2) Put BOTH those files in your override directory.

This ONLY works when creating a brand new paladin. The bug that requires this workaround makes it so the feat is not written to the bic file of an existing paladin.
