Versus mundane evil creatures, a paladin adds his Charisma bonus to other to-hit bonuses and adds his paladin levels (max 5) to damage.

Versus aberrations, evil outsiders, and undead, a paladin gets the foregoing bonuses against evil creatures, plus gets to add his Charisma bonus to damage, and his weapon's base damage die/dice is doubled.

Tactics:

If accompanied by allies, Whiteheart attempts to prepare for any combat by casting Bless. If exigencies permit, the paladin will follow up the Bless spell with 2nd round use of Dual Heroic Deeds to invoke both Blessed Assurance and Holy Aura.

If fighting solo, Whiteheart attempts to begin by casting Divine Favor. He will follow this, if possible, with the Saint Ygg's Shield heroic deed. Finally, if fighting a particularly heinous foe or monster, he will seek to inflict maximum damage with his bronze ring, to be followed with healing for himself via Lay on Hands.
