Oath of Inquisition

The Oath of Inquisition calls to paladins who seek purity in the world and will crush corruption under their boot. These paladins do not care for the petty schemes of politics and small warlords. They must crush those who seek the evil or use magic for dark purposes. Those who swear this oath know that there is no price is too high, no crime too small, and no judge bold enough to challenge their authority. 

Oath Spells

You gain oath spells at the paladin levels listed in the Oath of Inquisition Spells table. See the Sacred Oath class feature for how oath spells work.
