He is the brother to Takhisis and to Gilean He chose the goddess Mishakal as his consort. He fathered three children: Kiri-Jolith, Habbakuk, and Solinari. He is advised by Majere and is the partner of Mishakal. Kiri-Jolith and Habbakuk are also close to him. He honors Solinari by taking the form of a white robed wizard during the War of the Lance. He respects the Gods of Neutrality with no special friends among them, and opposes all Gods of Evil. His celestial symbol is the constellation Platinum Dragon. Paladine responds to the demands of the Kingpriest, who arrogantly demands power from the Gods, by casting the fiery mountain upon the world, causing the Cataclysm. Paladine takes the form of the absent-minded wizard Fizban the Fabulous to aid the Heroes of the Lance. At the conclusion of the War of Souls Paladine chose to forsake his immortality so that the Dark Queen Takhisis could also be cast out of the Pantheon of the Gods. In his mortal form he chose the name Valthonis as an elf. He is also now known as "The Walking God".
