Virtuous Honesty. As an action, you may cast zone of truth without using any spell slots.

Second guess. As a bonus action, you can reroll an insight check used to determine if someone/something is lying.

 

Aura of Truth

Starting at 7th level, you fill nearby creatures with a compulsion to reveal the truth, and loosen their mental fortitude. While you’re not incapacitated, creatures within 10 feet of you have disadvantage on all Wisdom saving throws. This does not include spellcasting.

When you reach 18th level in this class, the aura affects creatures within 30 feet of you.

Virtuous Grapple

At 15th level, you can call on the forces of justice and compulsion as a reaction whenever a creature moves into or out of your reach. The creature takes 3d4 psychic damage and must succeed on a Charisma saving throw against your spell save DC or be  charmed.

Guardian of Truth

At 20th level, you learn to channel the overwhelming need for justice in the world to gain the following benefits for 1 minute:

• You have advantage on all persuasion, intimidation, and performance checks.
• If you are within 5 feet of a creature and no other creatures are within 5 feet of you, you have advantage on spells cast against that creature.
• Anyone within 30 feet of you that you can see or hear immediately fails any deception check they make, but you immediately fail any deception check you make as well.
• You have advantage on Constitution checks and Constitution saving throws against effects you can see.

Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again until you finish a long rest.
