{{3.5e Alternate Class Feature
|name=Anticavalier
|summary=The anticavalier is a counterpart of the antipaladin, however much less extreme in nature. While the antipaladin committed to the forces of evil, the anticavalier lost her valor and dedication to her duty. They are grim-faced loner overwhelmed with bitterness and driven by anger and resentment. They have no need of allies, beside their trusty mount perhaps, and instead strike on their own. While motivation might be lacking, their combat skills are carefully honed. Perhaps the only thing that can rise a raise an anticavalier’s resolve is facing an heroic foes, a reminder of what they once were and what they lost.
