Weapon and Armor Proficiency: The Knight of the Pale is proficient with all simple and martial weapons, and all types of armor, and shields.

Ability Suites (Su): The ability suites of the knight function as written in Ptolus: City of the Spire, pp.654-655. No adjustment for the Pathfinder system is needed.

Bonus feats: At 2nd, 4th and 6th level, a knight gains a bonus feat, representing additional training fighting the forces of evil. At each such opportunity, he can choose one of the following feats: alignment channel, channel smite, demon hunter, disruptive, extra channel, extra lay on hands, extra mercy, improved channel, improved counterspell, improved iron will, iron will, parry spell, selective channel, spellbreaker, spell penetration, [1]. The knight must still meet all prerequisites for a bonus feat, including caster level minimums. These bonus feats are in addition to the feats that a character of any class gets from advancing levels.

Holy Avenger (Su): As per Ptolus: City of the Spire, pg.655.
