Ascendant. You invoke words of truth in the unholy as you draw forth a mighty hammer, tolling the bell of confession.
As a bonus action, you can draw forth a confession from the unrepentant. The next time you hit a creature with a melee weapon attack, you deal an additional amount of radiant damage equal to 2d6 + your proficiency modifier. The creature must succeed on a DC 13 Wisdom saving throw or be knocked prone into a kneeling position as the words of their confession ring true.
You can use this ability once before refreshing it in town using Performing Sacred Rites or Religious Service Downtime actions.
At Higher Levels. The melee attack deals an extra 1d6 radiant damage and the ability DC increases by 2 when you reach 5th level, 10th level, 15th level, and 20th level.
