Oath of the Elementals

The Oath of the Elements is a tradition bound in the chaos and perfection of the elements. Paladin's who choose this path are often called storm callers, elemental furies, grey knights or dragon knights. The paladins who sear this oath believe in rebirth through destruction and hold firm to the examples phoenix's and jack pine cones, all destruction brings new life, sometimes adhering to these beliefs a bit too strongly.

Channel Divinity

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

Elemental Weapon. As an action, you can imbue one weapon that you are holding with elemental energy, using your Channel Divinity. choose a damage type, acid, cold, fire, lightning, or thunder, for 1 minute, you add you deal extra damage of the selected type equal to your Charisma modifier to damage rolls made with that weapon (with a minimum bonus of +1). 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.

Turn the Elements. As an action, you present your holy symbol and speak a prayer censuring elementals, using your Channel Divinity. Each elemental that can see or hear you within 30 feet of you must make a Wisdom saving throw. If the creature fails its saving throw, it is turned for 1 minute or until it takes damage.

A turned creature must spend its turns trying to move as far away from you as it can, and it can’t willingly move to a space within 30 feet of you. It also can’t take reactions. For its action, it can use only the Dash action or try to escape from an effect that prevents it from moving. If there’s nowhere to move, the creature can use the Dodge action.
