Paladins Beyond 20th Level

Scroll and Magical Item Use: At 21st level, a paladin can read priest scrolls. The paladin’s level is considered to be 9th when determining the chance of spell failure. The paladin can also use priest magical items at this level.

Scroll Writing: At 24th level, a paladin can prepare scrolls of priest spells according to the rules in Chapter 4. The paladin’s level for purposes of determining success or failure is considered to be 9th.

Disease Immunity: At 27th level, a paladin becomes immune to all forms of disease, even cursed afflictions, such as mummy rot and lycanthropy, but not disease inflicted by true dweomers (see Chapter 6) or the special powers of priests that are higher level than the paladin. At this level, the paladin’s cure disease ability is potent enough to cure cursed afflictions, such as mummy rot and lycanthropy, and remove any form of curse or affliction cast by a character of lower level than the paladin. This applies to cursed magical items as well.
