Advice for a newbie Dwarf Paladin

[Ghamarro]

Hello,

I have never played EverQuest before and am just about to roll onto the new green server to make a Dwarf Paladin, but I don't want to muck my first character up and have to start all over, so I would like to ask some advice in terms of allocating the stats and AA points etc. Are there any good character guides out there that would help a newbie avoid most of the critical pitfalls?
