Hi. I'm currently playing a homebrew Paladin that uses Wisdom instead of Charisma for its abilities and spells and such. As I'm almost as 6th level, my DM and I would prefer that the Aura of Protection gained then grants its bonuses using the Wisdom modifier instead of Charisma's for the saving throw bonus (as this Paladin has none for narrative reasons), but I haven't been able to find it in subclass creator to modify it to do so.
Is there a way to modify it that I'm missing or a workaround that I'm not aware of? Any assistance is greatly appreciated.
I was afraid of that. Is it possible to create an Aura ability similar to Aura of Protection to get the result I want? Or a magic item for the party? Or is Aura of Protection ingrained in DnD Beyond in such a way that replicating it is beyond the means of homebrew creator?

You can definitely recreate Aura of Protection (with Wisdom instead of Charisma)! You'd do so by adding the "Bonus - Saving Throws" and then also specifying the Ability Score as Wisdom. You can see what I mean via this screenshot:
Bear in mind that the Charisma aspect of Aura of Protection is going to be baked into the class itself - there's no way of getting around that bonus. Hope that helps!

D&D Beyond StaffSince Aura of Protection is a base Paladin feature, there's no way to override or otherwise change it from Charisma to Wisdom.

That did help immensely. My DM and I both like it. Thank for the assistance!
