Astolfo is so anti what you would imagine a paladin to be like. He dresses and presents himself androgynously, acts with no sense of discipline or direction, and prioritizes enjoying everyday life to doing his actual job as a Servant. It gave off this impression that Charlemagne and his paladins were going to be the Chaotic equivalent to the Knights of the Round Table; a bunch of weirdos and mad men with quirky Noble Phantasms.
But nah. Turns out they're just the French KRT afterall: a bunch of bishies running about with beam swords.
