A bardadin as glorious as he is brave. The one the only Glory Paladin Valor bard multiclass. Strangely I don't want 17 levels bard 3 levels paladin, but 15 level paladin 5 levels bard.
Race MoM Hobgoblin Stats str 18 dex 10 con 17 int 8 wis 8 cha 20 plus tavern brawler
Level 1-3 paladin glory (extra hit points for team, divine smite, defensive fighting style plus chainmail plus shield 19, flail (maybe), advantage to athletics)
level 4-8 Valor bard ( Extra Ac for squishy caster, expertise athletics)
level 9 - 20 glory paladin (extra ac for squishy casters , aura of protection and Alacrity)
In short: decent AC 19 (21 with plate), insane grappler, spite for disadvantage in benefit of squishy casters, up to 13 extra ac for squishy caster, and early 3rd level spell slots. ( maybe not better at fighting, but better grappler and support than normal glory paladin).
