Vampire Paladin

I've been playing in a Ravenloft campaign and my Outh of the Crown Paladin died about 1/4 into the campaign. now we are 3/4 in and after my new characters death my DM recommended that the paladin come back as a vampire for reasons that are to long to type. The paladins devoition to the raven queen so you could see how becoming a vampire is bad for him. Should he change ouths or flat out become an outh breaker? Do any of you have a cool idea for how the paladin should respond to forced vampireizm. 5e btw.

Revenant makes more sense in the campaign, and has PC stats. If you want to lean in, go with that Warlock UA for the raven queen patron and cut a deal with the lady directly - it even suits the stats you have as a Paladin.

Oaths have literally zero to do with following a particular god, they're about the things you believe empowering you with divine strength.
The whole reason Paladins can be any alignment they want in 5e is because of the Oath "system". You could be an Evil pacifist Oath of Redemption Paladin who worships a Pit Fiend and it wouldn't matter at all mechanically.
Sure your god could fuck with you via denouncing or a curse, especially the Raven Queen when you're in Ravenloft, but you could just bring them back and as long as you keep to your personal rules you'll still be a Paladin of the Oath you want to be, unless your GM is a snippy asshole about it. Although, considering he suggested it in the first place, he probably doesn't care.

So the reason why he is a vampire is because one of the dark lords was making an undead army and decided to use the dead pc's as cloned vampire slave generals. the paladin was just lucky and through some fault in the cloning processes was freed from mind control.

me and the dm come from 3.5 so we agreed that for this specific paladin his divine powers come from his god. Although the gm has always been the type of dm that says " I won't restrict you unless you want to do it for rp reasons". so he wouldn't say "whelp fuck you no paladin levels" this post is made just so i could have cool character development ideas.

Sometimes you just gotta suffer well, user

Oh.
Well I guess I don't have any and was just being a bitch under assumption. Sorry my dude.

All good, friend.

Paladin upholds his vow and does his duty with the intention of falling (again) in the battle against evil. He can fight more recklessly than ever now as his death would simply be a correction of the natural order.

But shouldn't he just starve him self to death than?
