Have a gentleman's agreement where the paladin can dispatch any undead you use per encounter if he autisms, the party will have less disposition towards his unwavering inflexibility, if he agrees, the party still complains if they get into trouble in situations where dangers could have been mitigated through benefit of higher numbers, if he's really a paladin, he'll take the time to lecture the fuck out of you at every given opportunity to get you to change your ways or restrict yourself, bar that, simply prove he only projects the teachings of his order and his own self-righteous attitudes but has little sense of his own to comprehend them outright. Honestly, this is what happens when objective alignment loses it's significance in the world at large. If you also want to try and make yourself look more sympathetic, ask the GM to implement [evil] descriptor spell penalties as well as side-effects to your craft, such as vile darkness & taint. People tend to think wizards can just wizard for free, but individuals like Raistalin, or certain spellcasters with things like magical staffs for familiars all came at a price. if you're someone who's literally crippling themselves for the sake of law & order, it makes the paladin look very disrespectful in the eyes of others, thanks to his clergy brought up training, donation bought armaments, and 'dedication' to the downtrodden. How is he going to look if you were once one of the people like the orphans he so upholds as paragons of his reason to fight? There's also the fact that many LE organizations, faiths & guilds do a lot of good, people forget that clerics offer their services to others, regardless of their alignments most of the time- churches need funding, after all, and then there's things like development, protection of trade routes/borders, etc. For the probable conflict that could only be broken up by pressing matters/a greater threat, leading to someone's death, here's some interesting things to put into play:
Skeleton warriors, the cursed martial made to wear circlets that bind them in undeath, like cheaper a cheaper death knight, but also a form of punishment.
As an alternative, Thayan Juju Zombies, or traditional Ennervation Juju Zombies.
NWN1 only doom-knights, undead forms holy warriors who fell on/before death, good if he really makes an ass of himself before the end, tend to be of opposite alignment they had in life, due to renouncing their values they made an oath to uphold.
There's a 9th level spell called Vile Death, where after an hour of casting, one imposes an aligned fiend onto a user-created undead, making the undead in question fiendish, this of itself has advantages in undead creation through use of desecration, but it also because it can be used on any user created undead- it would grant an unwilful skeleton warrior the ability to class as a blackguard, and technically put the soul of the trapped individual on the back seat, based on the aligned fiend that fuses with the undead in question. So, one could use this to FORCE a paladin, trapped in an undead state, to be lawful evil, and technically a blackguard, because of the fiend thing.
Don't get me wrong though, LE has the E in it for a reason, there's always something harmful or selfish that can be worked needlessly against others through means of law, or otherwise simply done because of a cynical dismissive worldview, so whatever it is, keep it hidden from others.
