Oath of the Storm

The chaotic nature of the Storm makes some question the necessity or legitimacy of these tenets, but nevertheless these are the words that have been passed down for countless generations by warriors who have lived and died by them.

Gale. It is not your place to remain in one area for long. There are many battles to be won on the next horizon.

Thunder. Be the voice for the voiceless. Speak for the downtrodden and the oppressed. Be the fury to those who would subjugate the innocent.

Lightning. Life is short and fleeting. When in doubt, know that now is the time to leave your mark on to world.

Downpour. Be a cleansing and restorative force, ensure that the world you live in today will be a better place tomorrow, and all days to come.

Channel Divinity

When you take this oath at 3rd level, you gain the following two Channel Divinity options.

Eye of the Storm. Your oath gives you the ability to temper the power of storms. As an action, you present your holy symbol and speak words of warding. Any natural storm does not affect the area around you in a 10 foot radius for one hour. Magical storms cannot be affected with this Channel Divinity. The radius expands to 30 feet when you reach 18th level.

Thunderous Rebuff. When you take damage from a creature within 5 feet of you, you can use your reaction to halve the damage. Condensed sound erupts out from your body, and the creature who damaged you must make a Constitution saving throw. A creature takes thunder damage equal to 2d8 + your paladin level and is knocked prone on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.

Oath of the Storm Spells

You gain oath spells at the paladin levels listed.

Lightning Lash

Beginning at 3rd level, you learn to harness the lightning as it crackles across the sky, shaping it into a weapon you wield. You learn the spell Lightning Lure; when casting this spell, you can target a second enemy, so long as both targets are within 5ft of each other. 

In addition, whenever you deal radiant damage, you can choose to change it to lightning damage. 

Aura of the Storm

By 7th level, you and friendly creatures within 10 feet of you gain resistance to lightning and thunder damage. In addition, as a bonus action, you can cause a strong wind to whirl around you until you dismiss it as another bonus action, causing the following effects:

• Unprotected flames, torch-sized or smaller, are extinguished.
• The area counts as difficult terrain. You can choose any number of creatures to be immune to this effect.
• It hedges out vapour, gas, and fog that can be dispersed by a strong wind.

At 18th level, the radius of this aura extends to 30 feet.

Improved Aura of the Storm

Starting at 15th level, whenever a hostile creature within your aura makes an attack against you and you are not incapacitated, it takes lightning damage equal to your Charisma modifier.

Avatar of the Tempest

At 20th level, as an action, you can mantle the powers of a tempest deity. For 1 minute, your body crackles with thunder and lightning, and your eyes glow blue, revealing the raging storm within. You gain the following benefits:

• You are immune to lightning and thunder damage.
• You have a fly speed of 60 feet.
• Your Melee weapon Attacks deal 1d10 additional Thunder damage.
• Once per turn, when you deal damage with a melee weapon attack, you can force the target to make a STR saving throw against your Paladin Spell Save or be pushed 10 feet away from you and knocked prone.
• Lightning and thunder damage you deal bypasses resistance, and  Creatures cannot benefit from the Lightning Absorption trait from damage you deal.

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