You learn the fire bolt cantrip. This can be used in addition to your paladin spells and uses charisma as its spell casting modifier

Channel Divinity

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

Sympathy's Gaze: As an action, you can use your Channel Divinity to project an aura of malevolence that unnerves those around you. Each creature of your choice within 30 feet of you must make a Wisdom saving throw or become frightened for 1 minute. A frightened creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success

Sympathy's Resilience: As a reaction, when you take damage from a creature within 30 feet of you, you can use your Channel Divinity to invoke Sympathy's Resilience. You gain temporary hit points equal to half the damage dealt. These temporary hit points last until the end of your next turn
