LG
Lawful GoodA lawful good character believes in honor. A code or faith that she has unshakable belief in likely guides her. She would rather die than betray that faith, and the most extreme followers of this alignment are willing (sometimes even happy) to become martyrs.
A lawful good character at the extreme end of the lawful-chaotic spectrum can seem pitiless. She may become obsessive about delivering justice, thinking nothing of dedicating herself to chasing a wicked dragon across the world or pursuing a devil into Hell. She can come across as a taskmaster, bent upon her aims without swerving, and may see others who are less committed as weak. Though she may seem austere, even harsh, she is always consistent, working from her doctrine or faith. Hers is a world of order, and she obeys superiors and finds it almost impossible to believe there’s any bad in them. She may be more easily duped by such imposters, but in the end she will see justice is done—by her own hand if necessary. - Areas of Concern

He sees good where he can, but knows evil can exist even in the most ordered place., LN
A neutral good character does anything he can, and works with anyone he can, for the greater good. Such a character is devoted to being good, and works in any way he can to achieve it. He may forgive an evil person if he thinks that person has reformed, and he believes that in everyone there is a little bit of good.Lawful NeutralA lawful neutral character admires order and tradition, or seeks to live by a code. He might fear chaos and disorder, and perhaps have good reason to do so from past experience. A lawful neutral person is not as concerned about who rules him so much as how secure he and his compatriots are, and finds great solace in the normality of society. Such a character may admire the strongest of leaders and punishments if they keep order, and he may support wars against other nations even if his own country is a brutal invader—his only concern is the rightness of the military action.
A lawful neutral character who follows his own code never breaks it willingly, and may become a martyr to defend it. - Realms

Sacrament (Sp)
Liturgy (Su)
Three times per day, you can ask for Winlas’s favor whenever you are observing a religious ceremony within 300 feet. When you do this, you and up to one additional creature per 2 HD you possess assume the appearance of the congregation you are observing with perfect accuracy, and you all gain complete knowledge of the sacred rites being performed (granting you a +10 sacred bonus on Bluff checks to perform the rites). This ability is otherwise like a seeming spell, except you gain a +20 bonus on your Disguise check.
Ritual of True Faith (Sp)
Once per day, you can cast either symbol of death, symbol of insanity, symbol of stunning, or symbol of weakness. Your casting time for this spell-like ability is reduced to 1 minute.
