Oath of the Storm

Tenets of the Storm

The power of the storm is thine to command, now hear thy tenets, oh warrior of thunder.

• Gale. You have a duty to the winds and the sky. Though you may call the lands your home, the winds will ever call you to serve your duty as far as the sky's reach. Do not hesitate, but serve their bidding with joy.

• Thunder. Be the voice for the voiceless. Speak for the downtrodden and the oppressed.

• Lightning. When the corruption of the earth grows, the burden of honor will fall to thee. You will be the guardian of the realms of men and the vanguard of the realms of the divine.

• Downpour. In word, deed, and action, cultivate the joy of life in the world. When the wars are over and the evils are done, light and laughter will flourish once more. Prepare the world for this time.

Channel Divinity

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

 

Storm's Wrath. As a bonus action, you can infuse one melee weapon that you are holding with Storm essence, using your Channel Divinity. For 1 Hour, you add your Charisma modifier to Attack and damage rolls made with that weapon (with a minimum bonus of +1). The weapon crackles with lightning and emits bright light in a 20-foot radius and dim light 20 feet beyond that. If the weapon is not already magical, it becomes magical for the duration.

You can end this effect on your turn as part of any other action. If you are no longer holding or carrying this weapon, or if you fall unconscious, this effect ends.

Storm Ward.  Lightning pulsing through your heart As an action you invoke the power deep within to create a magical ward around yourself or another creature you can see within 30 feet of you. The ward lasts until you finish a short/Long rest or until you use this feature again. The ward has hit points equal to twice your Paladin level + your Charisma modifier. Whenever the warded creature takes damage, the ward takes the damage instead. If this damage reduces the ward to 0 hit points, the warded creature takes any remaining damage.

While the ward has 0 hit points, it can't absorb damage, but its magic remains., When you use Divine Smite the ward regains a number of hit points equal to twice the level of the spell slot used, When you use your Lay on Hands on the warded creature you can also use your pool of healing power to restore the ward.
