A Fallen Angelic Paladin in Dungeons & Dragons is a character who was once a celestial being or an angelic figure devoted to upholding justice, righteousness, and order, but has since fallen from grace due to a major moral or ethical failure. This fall often stems from a catastrophic event or an internal struggle that causes the paladin to abandon their divine mission. As a result, they find themselves torn between their former heavenly ideals and the darker, more corrupted forces they now face.

The concept of the Fallen Angelic Paladin blends two significant elements. First, the "angelic" part refers to the paladin's celestial origins, suggesting they were once a divine being or had been bestowed powers from a higher plane. This might manifest in the form of radiant abilities, divine spells, or a celestial aura that once reflected their commitment to good. However, due to a tragic betrayal, pride, or an irreversible choice, the paladin's powers are now warped or diminished, and they carry the weight of their fallen status.

The "paladin" aspect indicates that they were originally a holy warrior, sworn to uphold a code of honor and fight against evil. However, after their fall, they may struggle with guilt, anger, and a sense of lost purpose. Their oath, once guided by unwavering principles, might now be twisted to suit their new, often darker motivations. While still capable of fighting for justice, the means they employ are more morally ambiguous or even ruthless.

A Fallen Angelic Paladin could be an intriguing character who seeks redemption, battling inner turmoil and trying to reconcile their celestial past with their corrupted present. Alternatively, they might embrace their new path, using their fallen status to wield power with a more selfish or vengeful outlook. The ongoing tension between their noble past and tarnished present makes them a compelling figure in any campaign.
