At the beginning of the list (before the first item), just increase 
the relevant counter to 12.  If it really is occasionally this should 
suffice.

e.g.

\begin{enumerate}[(A)]
\setcounter{enumi}{12}
\item foo
\item bar
\end{enumerate}

The enumitem package allows you to specify the starting counter in 
the list setup.  But if you're happy with paralist, you might as well 
stick with it.
