A Cursed Angelic Paladin in Dungeons & Dragons is a unique character concept blending celestial traits with a dark twist. Typically, paladins are divine warriors devoted to a god or cause, upholding justice, honor, and righteousness. An angelic paladin would embody the pure ideals of a celestial being, often possessing traits like divine magic, wings, and an aura of holiness. However, when cursed, this paladin's connection to their celestial origins is tainted by a powerful and malevolent force.

The curse could manifest in many ways, such as a fall from grace, a divine betrayal, or being bound by dark magic. This curse could cause the paladin to lose their radiant aura, twist their divine powers, or warp their appearance, such as their angelic wings turning dark and corrupted. Despite the curse, the paladin is still bound by their oath, creating a complex internal conflict. They may still uphold the tenets of their oath, but the curse forces them to balance their noble duties with the temptation of their darker urges.

Their abilities might include shadow-infused healing or the ability to channel both radiant and necrotic energy, reflecting their struggle between light and darkness. A cursed angelic paladin could be a tragic figure, striving to reclaim their lost grace while being hunted by those who fear their corrupted nature. The character's curse is an ongoing source of personal tension, potentially leading to quests for redemption or attempts to break the curse, all while grappling with the duality of their celestial heritage and the shadow that now taints their soul.
