Paladin, Demon Smiter (race: Human) - Angel

Scored single-classed Human Paladin, levels 1-20, STR primary with CHA as a real secondary stat. CHA (racial +2, two level-up increases, mental headband) feeds Smite Evil's attack bonus and deflection AC, which apply automatically when a Paladin is the MC. Wields a two-handed Fauchard for its 18-20 crit range, stacked with the Weapon Focus/Specialization and Improved Critical/Critical Focus chains, Power Attack, and Divine Favor self-cast from level 4. Angel mythic path for flavor.
