Paladins who take the Oath of the Lodestar swear to protect and guide those who are lost in the darkness, so that they may safely find their way to the light.

Tenets of the Lodestar:

Understand the Darkness. Not all who dwell in the darkness are there by choice.

Light the Way. Be a beacon in the darkness to light the path for those who are lost.

Guide the Lost. Find those who are lost and guide them towards your light.

Protect the Weak. Protect those who you guide towards salvation.

Channel Divinity

3rd-level Oath of the Lodestar feature

You gain the following Channel Divinity options. See the Sacred Oath class feature for how Channel Divinity works.

Sense Darkness. For one minute you can sense the presence of evil, misguided or not. You learn the location of every evil aligned creature within 60 feet of you that is not behind total cover. additionally you can sense magical darkness and magical darkness cannot impede your vision anymore than normal darkness.

Starlit Blade. You channel the radiance of the night sky into one melee weapon you are holding. For 1 minute or until you choose to end it, the weapon deals additional radiant damage equal to your Charisma Modifier and sheds bright light in a 20 foot radius and dim light for an additional 20 feet beyond that. If the weapon was not magical or silvered before it is considered so while this ability is active. If you are incapacitated this effect ends early.

Aura of Warding

7th-level Oath of the Oath of the Lodestar feature

You emit an aura of magical warding while you aren’t incapacitated. You and any creatures of your choice within 10 feet of you gain a bonus to your Armor Class equal to your charisma modifier.

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

Sleep Walker

15th-level Oath of the Lodestar feature

You’ve learned how to connect dreams in order to travel even while you rest. Whenever you and any creature within 30 feet of you takes a long rest, you can connect your dreams. At the end of the long rest all you all wake up in a place familiar to one of the affected creatures of your choosing. While you choose the creature, the creature chooses the location. When a creature other than yourself chooses the destination, there is a 25% chance that a nightmare forms, teleporting you to a place you did not intend. If such a mishap occurs roll on the following table to determine the nature of the nightmare and therefore the location.

Nightmare Table (d10)

Celestial Body

20th-level Oath of the Lodestar feature

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:

• you shed bright light for 15 feet around you and dim light for an additional 15 feet. When you use a spell or ability with a range of touch such as cure wounds or lay on hands you can cast it on any creature within your aura.
• Gravity within your aura is warped around you. You and any creatures you choose, gain a flying speed equal to your walking speed while within your aura.
• Your aura dispels all magical darkness that passes through it, and your aura cannot be dispelled by anything short of an antimagic field or wish spell.
• When a creature is attacked within your aura, but before you know the outcome of the roll, you can use a reaction to sacrifice some of your Armor Class up to your charisma modifier and add it to the creatures until the start of your next turn.  If the attack still hits you take half the damage instead of the target, this applies to all subsequent attacks that hit the warded creature for the duration of this effect.

Once you use this ability, you can not use it again until you finish a long rest, or you expend a 5th-level spell slot to do so.
