Paladin

Seek Out and Burn Wickedness to Ash

Evil and wickedness are widespread and long-lived, but not infinite. Paladins who swear the Oath of Castigation root evil out to burn it away utterly, giving light to all that is innocent and good. Whether bound by the laws of mortals, their deity, or their own personal code, they relentlessly hunt down evil where it thrives. Paladins of this oath know evil cannot hide in any festering place once it burns.

These paladins share the following tenets:

The Wicked Nemeses table offers examples of malefactors, villains, and other evil beings that you have rooted out and purged in the past, or perhaps one you're still hunting. Facing these nemeses may have put you on the path of purging wickedness wherever it lurks.

You and your allies within your Aura of Protection ignore creatures' Resistance to Fire and Radiant damage, and when an affected creature hits with a weapon attack, it can deal Fire damage instead of the weapon's normal damage type.

In addition, you and affected creatures in the aura can add your Charisma modifier (minimum of +1) to Intelligence (Investigation) and Wisdom (Insight) checks.

Whenever a creature damages you or one of your allies within 30 feet of you that you can see, you can take a Reaction to gain Advantage on your next attack roll against the creature that dealt the damage. Additionally, whenever you deal Fire or Radiant damage to a Bloodied creature, you become aware of any lies the creature has willingly and knowingly spoken to you in the past 24 hours.

As a Bonus Action, you embody cleansing flame and gain the benefits below for 10 minutes or until you end them (no action required). Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a Long Rest. You can also restore your use of it by expending a level 5 spell slot (no action required).

Impose Your Might and Subdue All Opposition

The Oath of Conquest calls to paladins who seek to dominate their enemies and enforce absolute order. These paladins, known as Iron Warlords or Tyrants, believe that true peace comes through unwavering strength and control. Some embrace darkness, valuing law over mercy and wearing trophies of fallen foes to intimidate any who challenge them. Such knights are referred to by some as hell knights. The other Paladins of this oath fiercy resist hell knights, believing they have wandered too far into darkness.

These paladins adhere to the following tenets:

Your commanding presence imposes relentless pressure on your foes. If you choose to, creatures within your Aura of Protection take Psychic damage equal to your Paladin level when they fail their saving throw against your Command spell, and half as much damage if they succeed.

Those who dare to strike you are psychically punished for their audacity. Whenever a creature hits you with an attack, that creature takes Psychic damage equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum of 1) if you do not have the Incapacitated condition.

You gain the ability to harness extraordinary martial prowess. As a Bonus Action, you gain the benefits below for 10 minutes or until you end them (no action required). Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a Long Rest. You can also restore your use of it by expending a level 5 spell slot (no action required).

Uphold the Ideals of Justice and Order

The Oath of Devotion binds Paladins to the ideals of justice and order. These Paladins meet the archetype of the knight in shining armor. They hold themselves to the highest standards of conduct, and some—for better or worse—hold the rest of the world to the same standards.

Many who swear this oath are devoted to gods of law and good and use their gods' tenets as the measure of personal devotion. Others hold angels as their ideals and incorporate images of angelic wings into their helmets or coats of arms.

These paladins share the following tenets:

You and your allies have Immunity to the Charmed condition while in your Aura of Protection. If a Charmed ally enters the aura, that condition has no effect on that ally while there.

Your magical smite now radiates protective energy. Whenever you cast Divine Smite, you and your allies have Half Cover while in your Aura of Protection. The aura has this benefit until the start of your next turn.

As a Bonus Action, you can imbue your Aura of Protection with holy power, granting the benefits below for 10 minutes or until you end them (no action required). Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a Long Rest. You can also restore your use of it by expending a level 5 spell slot (no action required).

Strive for the Heights of Heroism

Paladins who take the Oath of Glory believe they and their companions are destined to achieve glory through deeds of heroism. They train diligently and encourage their companions, so they're all ready when destiny calls.

These paladins share the following tenets:

Your Speed increases by 10 feet.

In addition, whenever an ally enters your Aura of Protection for the first time on a turn or starts their turn there, the ally's Speed increases by 10 feet until the end of their next turn.

You can turn defense into a sudden strike. When you or another creature you can see within 10 feet of you is hit by an attack roll, you can take a Reaction to grant a bonus to the target's AC against that attack, potentially causing it to miss. The bonus equals your Charisma modifier (minimum of +1). If the attack misses, you can make one attack with a weapon against the attacker as part of this Reaction if the attacker is within your weapon's range.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum of once), and you regain all expended uses when you finish a Long Rest.

You can empower yourself with the legends—whether true or exaggerated—of your great deeds. As a Bonus Action, you gain the benefits below for 10 minutes. Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a Long Rest. You can also restore your use of it by expending a level 5 spell slot (no action required).

Paladins of Love both exemplify and go against what one thinks of when they envision a Paladin. They are known to be extremely committed to their cause, but what fuels their commitment is not a sense of morality, or a divine sense of justice, but rather their very own feelings. Paladins of Love reject the idea that to be a holy warrior, one must be unfeeling in the commitment of living their life according to an oath. Their oath itself relies on the love that inspires them to swear by the tenets they follow. To them, loving eyes are the only eyes not clouded by superfluous ideals and morals.

Paladins of Love choose a beloved—or rather, their feelings choose for them. A Paladin's beloved, what they love most in this world and all the others, is the source of their power. Most Paladins' beloved are people. Parents gain magical abilities by swearing an oath to love and protect their child, or lovers battle together and use their love for each other as the force that guides their blows. Other Paladins of Love, however, find their beloved in a deity, or a place, or a group of people, or a concept. Paladins of Love are not interested in questions of morality, and are not required to find a beloved that is 'good'—they are only required to love the object(s) of their affection unconditionally.

As long as the Paladin feels an extremely powerful love towards their beloved, they can swear the Oath of Love and become what is commonly referred to as a Knight of Hearts.

Starting at 7th level, you can empower your allies, and especially your beloved, with your love. When a Friendly and willing creature within 10 feet of you makes an attack roll, you can use your Reaction to add your Charisma modifier to their attack roll.

Additionally, you can use your Bonus Action to select a Friendly and willing creature within your aura. This creature is now your beloved, and enjoys a number of bonuses while within your aura:

The creature counts as your beloved for 1 minute or until they leave the radius of your aura. At 18th level, the range of this aura increases to 30 feet.

Starting at 15th level, you become stronger when fighting side by side with those you love. When the Friendly and willing creature you have selected within your aura as your beloved is within 10 feet of you, you enjoy the following bonuses:

You become the living embodiment of the love you feel so strongly, which gives you and those you love the following benefits:

Gain Strength Through Suffering

Clad in grime-soaked armor and wielding rusting weapons, Oath of Pestilence Paladins spread corruption, disease, and filth. Bound by an oath that infests their bodies with all manner of plagues, these heralds of decay lumber forward with unholy toughness and grim resolve.

These Paladins share the following tenets:

You emit an aura of contagion and virulence. When a creature within your Aura of Protection is about to make a D20 Test, you can take a Reaction to impose Disadvantage on that D20 Test.

When you are reduced to 0 Hit Points and not killed outright, you can spend any number of Hit Dice, roll them, and reduce the damage taken by the total rolled on those dice.

In addition, if you are killed, your corpse explodes in a shower of pus and gore. Each creature in a 20-foot Emanation originating from you makes Constitution saving throw gainst the Paladin's spell save DC, taking 8d6 Necrotic damage on a failed save or half as much damage on a successful one.

As a Bonus Action, you gain the benefits below for 10 minutes, or until you end them (no action required). Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a Long Rest. You can also restore your use of it by expending a level 5 spell slot (no action required).

Lead Others Back to the Path of Righteousness

The Oath of Redemption calls paladins to a path of peace and transformation, believing that all creatures can be redeemed, no matter how far they've strayed. Redeemers confront evil with compassion, seeking to turn enemies into allies and using violence only as a last resort. They strive to be a beacon of hope, but remain pragmatic, understanding that some beings, like undead and demons, are beyond redemption and must be confronted with force to protect the greater good.

These paladins adhere to the following tenets:

You can shield others from harm at the cost of your own health. When a creature within your Aura of Protection takes damage, you can take a Reaction to magically take that damage, instead of that creature taking it. This feature doesn't transfer any other effects that might accompany the damage, and this damage can't be reduced in any way but the Emissary of Redemption feature.

A holy presence mends your wounds in battle. If you are Bloodied at the end of your turn, you regain Hit Points equal to 1d6 + half your Paladin level (rounded up). You can't use this feature if you have the Incapacitated condition.

You can assume the form of an avatar of Peace. As a Bonus Action, you gain the benefits below for 10 minutes or until you end them (no action required). Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a Long Rest. You can also restore your use of it by expending a level 5 spell slot (no action required).

Work Hard and Party Harder

Paladins who swear the Oath of Revelry make a solemn vow to party day and night until their hearts give out. The antithesis of stuffy, lawful crusaders, these emissaries of carousal travel the land, crashing parties and raising hell wherever they raise a glass. Authorities bristle at their arrival, but the youth cheer, for a Party Paladin is always accompanied by a good time.

These paladins share the following tenets:

You and your allies deal an extra 1d4 damage on attacks using Melee weapons or Unarmed Strikes while in your Aura of Protection. This damage is the same type dealt by the weapon or Unarmed Strike.

When you or an ally within 30 feet of yourself that can see or hear you makes a D20 Test, you can take a Reaction to give that creature Advantage on the roll.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum of once), and regain all expended uses when you finish a Long Rest. If the creature still fails the D20 Test, this use of Merrymaker isn't expended.

As a Bonus Action, you can imbue your Aura of Protection with the many-hued magic of revelry, granting the benefits below for 10 minutes or until you end them (no action required). Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a Long Rest. You can also restore your use of it by expending a level 5 spell slot (no action required).

Revel in Unbridled Violence

The only truth of war is death. The only virtue is to kill. The only victory is to survive. Heroism, honor, and glory are illusions. This is the creed of Tormach, Arch Daemon of Wrath, but this philosophy rings true for all warriors who devote themselves, body and soul, to the thrill of combat and the delight of bloodshed. Such champions find themselves at the forefront of armies, using the most violent methods at their disposal to bring battles to a swift close... or drawing out the war to sate their own appetites.

Paladins who take the Oath of Slaughter share the following tenets:

Your lust for blood infects those around you. When a Bloodied ally within your Aura of Protection makes an attack with a weapon or an Unarmed Strike, it gains a bonus to damage. The bonus equals your Charisma modifier.

Additionally, when a Bloodied creature within your Aura of Protection makes a saving throw against a Sangromancy spell, you can take a Reaction to impose Disadvantage on the save.

When a creature in your Aura of Protection becomes Bloodied, you can take a Reaction to move up to half your Speed and make an attack with a Melee weapon or Unarmed Strike. This movement doesn't provoke Opportunity Attacks, and you have Advantage on the attack roll

Your bloodthirst imbues you with preternatural strength and resilience, allowing you to keep sowing slaughter. As a Bonus Action, you gain the benefits below for 10 minutes or until you end them (no action required). Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a Long Rest. You can also restore your use of it by expending a level 5 spell slot (no action required).

Seek to Become a Better You

Paladins who swear the Oath of Spiritualism dedicate themselves to the pursuit of enlightenment, guiding souls, and uncovering the hidden truths of existence. They seek to transcend the limits of the physical world through harmonising with the spiritual one. Whether through meditation, communion with spirits, or unravelling the mysteries of the afterlife, these paladins walk a path that bridges the material and the divine.

These paladins share the following tenets:

Your presence brings spiritual stability to those around you. You and friendly creatures have resistance to necrotic, psychic, and radiant damage while in your Aura of Protection.

Your understanding of the spiritual realm gives you proficiency in Intelligence saving throws, if you don't have it already.

Additionally, you can cast Detect Thoughts without expending a spell slot.

As a Bonus Action, you can imbue your Aura of Protection with Enlightenment, granting the benefits below for 1 minute or until you dismiss it (no action required). Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a Long Rest. You can also restore your use of it by expending a level 5 spell slot (no action required).

Preserve Life and Light in the World

The Oath of the Ancients is as old as the first elves. Paladins who swear this oath cherish the light; they love the beautiful and life-giving things of the world more than any principles of honor, courage, and justice. They often adorn their armor and clothing with images of growing things—leaves, antlers, or flowers—to reflect their commitment to preserving life and light.

These paladins share the following tenets:

Ancient magic lies so heavily upon you that it forms an eldritch ward, blunting energy from beyond the Material Plane; you and your allies have Resistance to Necrotic, Psychic, and Radiant damage while in your Aura of Protection.

When you are reduced to 0 Hit Points and not killed outright, you can drop to 1 Hit Point instead, and you regain a number of Hit Points equal to three times your Paladin level. Once you use this feature, you can't do so again until you finish a Long Rest.

Additionally, you can't be aged magically, and you cease visibly aging.

As a Bonus Action, you can imbue your Aura of Protection with primal power, granting the benefits below for 1 minute or until you end them (no action required). Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a Long Rest. You can also restore your use of it by expending a level 5 spell slot (no action required).

Embody the Ideals of Duty and Service

The Oath of the Crown is sworn by paladins who dedicate themselves to the principles of civilization, whether through loyalty to a nation, fealty to a sovereign, or service to a deity of law and order. These paladins see themselves as guardians of society, protecting it from the chaos that seeks to undermine its foundations. Known as Guardians, Exemplars, or Sentinels, they often serve in knightly orders, taking their oath as part of their commitment to uphold the stability and laws that sustain their communities.

These paladins adhere to the following tenets:

Your presence deters enemies from targeting your allies. While an ally is within your Aura of Protection, you can take a Reaction to grant it the benefits of the Disengage action whilest it remains in your Aura of Protection this turn.

You become a relentless force in your cause. You have Advantage on saving throws and ability checks to avoid or end the Grappled, Paralyzed, Restrained, or Stunned conditions.

Your presence on the field of battle is an inspiration to those dedicated to your cause. As a Bonus Action, you gain the benefits below for 10 minutes or until you end them (no action required). Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a Long Rest. You can also restore your use of it by expending a level 5 spell slot (no action required).

Paladin Subclass: Explore the Far Corners of the 'Verse

Gamma Knights dedicate themselves to the ideals of freedom and exploration as they scour the 'Verse for fragments of the legendary Gamma Pendant, source of all hardlight. This legendary pendant was once shattered and cast to the far corners of space, where its individual shards of hardlight gleam, waiting for a gamma knight to collect them.

These paladins share the following tenets:

You can attune up to four magic items at once rather than three.

As a Bonus Action, you can transfer one of your attuned magic items to an ally in your Aura of Protection. The item teleports to the ally and the ally temporarily becomes attuned to the item, which doesn't count against the number of magic items it can attune to.

This transference lasts for 1 minute. It ends early if you have the Incapacitated condition, you dismiss the effect (no action required), or if you use this feature to transfer another item. When the transference ends, the magic item teleports back to you, its temporary Attunement ends, and you attune to it again.

Whenever an enemy that you can see hits you or one of your allies within your Aura of Protection with a ranged attack, you can take a Reaction to intercept the projectile. Make a ranged attack using your Gamma Blade. The projectile's Armor Class equals the enemy's attack roll. If you hit the projectile, the enemy's attack misses.

As a Bonus Action, you gain the benefits below 10 minutes or until you end them (no action required). Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a Long Rest. You can also restore your use of it by expending a level 5 spell slot (no action required).

The giving grave is more a philosophy than a formalized code. It appeals to warriors who value power above life, to would-be conquerors who balk at nothing when imposing their will on the weak, to warlords who seek to extend their reigns beyond the usual limit of a single lifetime, and, frankly, to psychotic killers who crave the stamp of divine approval on their bloodletting.

Starting at 7th level, you and allies within 10 feet of you can't be turned while you are conscious. At 18th level, the radius of this aura increases to 30 feet.

Starting at 15th level, you gain regeneration. If you start your turn with fewer than half of your maximum hit points, you regain 5 hit points. If you take fire or radiant damage, this trait doesn't function at the start of your next turn.

At 20th level, you gain magic resistance; you have advantage on saving throws against spells and other magical effects. In addition, if you are killed, you rise from the grave within 1d4 days as a death knight. Consult your GM for implementation.

These Paladins serve as protectors of the common folk and guards against rampaging monsters. Those who embrace this oath range from itinerant Paladins who single-handedly defend towns on the borderlands to elite groups of knights tasked with protecting the cardinals of a religious order.

As a Bonus Action, you can choose creatures within 5 feet of yourself, up to a number of creatures equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum of one creature). Each of the chosen creatures can use your AC instead of its own AC as long as it remains within 5 feet of you or until you have the Incapacitated condition.

You can attack twice instead of once whenever you make an Opportunity Attack action. In addition, creatures of your choice under the effects of your Guarding Presence can attack twice instead of once whenever they make an Opportunity Attack.

When a creature marked by you that you can see reduces an ally to 0 Hit Points and doesn't kill the ally outright, you can take a Reaction to have the ally drop to 1 Hit Point instead. If you do so, the ally can immediately take a Reaction to make a melee attack against the marked creature if it's within reach.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum of once), and you regain all expended uses when you finish a Long Rest.

As a Bonus Action, you become a living bastion of defense, granting the benefits below for 1 minute or until you end them (no action required). Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a long rest. You can also restore your use of it by expending a level 5 spell slot (no action required).

Brandish the Elemental Splendor of Genies

Paladins sworn to the Oath of the Noble Genies revere the forces of the Elemental Planes. Through taking this oath, Paladins draw power from the four different types of genies—dao, masters of earth; djinn, masters of air; efreet, masters of fire; and marids, masters of water. In Faerûn, many Paladins who swear this oath hail from Calimshan, a land teeming with genies.

Paladins who swear this oath often undertake quests that take them all over the Realms and across the multiverse—including the Elemental Planes. These paladins share the following tenets:

Choose one of the following damage types: Acid, Cold, Fire, Lightning, or Thunder. You and your allies have Resistance to that damage type while in your Aura of Protection.

At the start of each of your turns, you can change the damage type affected by this feature to one of the other listed options (no action required).

When you are hit by an attack roll, you can take a Reaction to halve the attack's damage against yourself (round down) and force the attacker to make a Dexterity saving throw against your spell save DC. On a failed save, the attacker takes damage equal to 2d10 plus your Charisma modifier of one of the following types (your choice): Acid, Cold, Fire, Lightning, or Thunder. On a successful save, the attacker takes half as much damage.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum of once), and you regain all expended uses when you finish a Long Rest.

As a Bonus Action, you gain the benefits below for 10 minutes or until you end them (no action required). Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a Long Rest. You can also restore your use of it by expending a level 5 spell slot (no action required).

The Oath of the Nomad binds a paladin to a life on the road. Sometimes they are called pilgrims, crusaders, wandering sellswords, or just nomads. Even though they may commit acts other paladins abhor, they usually do it to help someone who required aid. Many who swear to this oath are bound by neutrality, as one cannot be considered good or evil in all the different cultures. Because of this they prefer not to wear clothing or use symbols associated with a specific culture.

Starting at 7th level, you grant others the ability to travel unhindered. Whenever a creature starts their turns within 10 feet of you, they can move an additional 5 feet that turn. In addition to that you and all friendly creatures can't be Grappled or Restrained and aren't affected by Difficult Terrain while they are in your aura. The aura is inactive while you are incapacitated.

At 18th level, this aura increases to 30 feet.

Starting at 15th level, you can easily deflect any ranged attack. Whenever you or another creature, within 5 feet of you, is hit by a ranged attack, you use your Reaction to try to redirect the projectile/force. Your Reaction grants the target a bonus to AC equal to your charisma modifier (minimum of 1). If that makes the attack miss, you may make a ranged spell attack roll against one creature you can see within 30 feet of you. On a hit they suffer the original damage and potential effects.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum of 1), regaining all uses when you finish a Long Rest.

At 20th level, you have become so well-travelled that you and your knowledge travel as fast as the wind. As an Action, you can activate the avatar of travel, which grants the following benefits for 1 hour:

Once you use this feature, it can't be used again until you have finished a Long Rest. You can also restore your use of it by expending a level 5 spell slot (no action required).

Spread the Sun Above with Scorching Spells

The Oath of the Sun binds Paladins to a singular solar philosophy, usually with devotion to the Sun Above. The Sun is the ultimate force of creation and destruction, bringing light, warmth, and nourishment, but also fire and destruction. Paladins pledged to the Sun strive to bring this dual nature to the furthest reaches of the 'Verse and protect those who fall under the sun's rays.

Avia-ra paladins of the Sun usually belong to the Church of the Sun above, a monotheistic religion that believes that the Sepulcher Star at the center of the galaxy is their one true god. Throughout the 'Verse, these Paladins evangelize their solar philosophy to Low Worlds and advanced worlds alike, whether or not the audience is willing to hear it.

These paladins share the following tenets:

You and your allies have Resistance to Cold and Fire damage while in your Aura of Protection. Additionally, you and allies within your Aura of Protection are protected from Extreme Temperatures.

Additionally, as a Bonus Action, you can cast Bright Light that is sunlight within your Aura of Protection and Dim Light for an additional 10 feet. You can dismiss this light as a Bonus Action.

The extra damage of your Radiant Strikes becomes 1d10 Radiant damage.

As a Bonus Action, you gain the benefits below for 10 minutes or until you end them (no action required). Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a Long Rest. You can also restore your use of it by expending a level 5 spell slot (no action required).

Stand Against Dread from Beyond the Stars

The Oath of the Watchers binds paladins to protect the mortal realms from extraplanar threats, which are beyond the reach of ordinary soldiers. These paladins undergo relentless training to hone their minds, spirits, and bodies, striving to be the ultimate defenders against such formidable dangers. They remain ever-watchful for signs of otherworldly influence and often establish networks of spies and informants to monitor potential cults and infernal infiltrations. For Watchers, vigilance and readiness are as crucial as their armor, as they cultivate a culture of suspicion and preparedness to safeguard against these potent threats.

These paladins adhere to the following tenets:

When you or a creature of your choice within your Aura of Protection rolls for Initiative, it adds your Charisma modifier (minimum +1) to the roll.

You've learned how to chastise anyone who dares wield beguilements against you and your wards. Whenever you or a creature you can see within 30 feet of you succeeds on an Intelligence, a Wisdom, or a Charisma saving throw, you can take a Reaction to deal 2d8 + your Charisma modifier Force damage to the creature that forced the saving throw.

You manifest a spark of divine power in defense of the mortal realms. As a Bonus Action, you gain the following benefits for 1 minute or until you end them (no action required). Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a Long Rest. You can also restore your use of it by expending a level 5 spell slot (no action required).

Punish Evildoers at Any Cost

The Oath of Vengeance is a solemn commitment to punish those who have committed grievously evil acts. When evil armies slaughter helpless villagers, when a tyrant defies the will of the gods, when a thieves' guild grows too violent, when a dragon rampages through the countryside—at times like these, paladins arise and swear an Oath of Vengeance to set right what has gone wrong.

These paladins share the following tenets:

Your supernatural focus helps you close off a foe's retreat. When you hit a creature with an Opportunity Attack, you can reduce the creature's Speed to 0 until the end of the current turn. You can then move up to half your Speed as part of the same Reaction. This movement doesn't provoke Opportunity Attacks.

Immediately after a creature under the effect of your Vow of Enmity hits or misses with an attack roll, you can take a Reaction to make a melee attack against that creature if it's within range.

As a Bonus Action, you gain the benefits below for 10 minutes or until you end them (no action required). Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a Long Rest. You can also restore your use of it by expending a level 5 spell slot (no action required).

Eliminate Threats to Ideological Purity

The Oath of Zeal is taken by paladins consumed by hatred for a specific group or ideology. Zealots, as these Paladins are sometimes called, pursue an inquisition against their enemies at all costs. They abandon compassion and honor as impediments to the more important work of ridding the world of those they deem dangerous or heretical.

These Paladins share the following tenets:

You and your allies have Immunity to the Blinded condition while in your Aura of Protection. If a Blinded ally enters the aura, that condition has no effect on that ally while there. Additionally, you can see Invisible creatures within your Aura of Protection.

You can cast Zone of Truth without expending a spell slot. In addition, a creature that succeeds on its saving throw takes 1d6 Psychic damage at the start of each of its turns while in your Zone of Truth until it chooses to fail its saving throw instead.

As a Bonus Action, you can reveal the true nature of your enemies for 1 minute. Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a Long Rest. You can also restore your use of it by expending a level 5 spell slot (no action required). You gain the following benefits.

Wield the Corruption Born from Broken Promises

Once a beacon of virtue, the Oathbreaker is a fallen paladin who has abandoned their sacred vows for dark ambitions or to serve malevolent powers. Their inner light has been extinguished, leaving only the shadow of their former self. This transformation involves a complete renunciation of their holy oath, replaced by a drive to wield dark powers and command sinister forces.

An Oathbreaker embraces corruption, channeling their abilities to spread fear and chaos. They forsake their previous oath's tenets for new powers aligned with darkness and domination. As they delve deeper into their new path, they gain control over the undead, wield dark spells, and radiate an aura of dread.

These paladins adhere to the following tenets:

Your blows are charged with a tireless hatred for those lacking the courage to take their own path. When you hit a Frightened creature in your Aura of Protection with an attack roll using a weapon or an Unarmed Strike, the target takes extra damage equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum of 1).

Your reluctance towards holy vows has fortified your mind against outside influence. You have Immunity to Psychic damage and the Charmed condition.

As a Bonus Action, you can imbue your Aura of Protection with false promises and dark intentions, granting the following benefits for 1 minute or until you end them (no action required). Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a Long Rest. You can also restore its use by expending a level 5 spell slot (no action required).
