Oath of the Rider

Oath of the Rider

The Oath of the Rider calls to paladins who seek Justice above all and the protection of the commonfolk. Riders stand for the truth that evil will be overcome by light and will rise again from their weakest moments.

Riders from all generations have channeled their hopes and dreams into protecting the innocent. Those who take up the mantle of the Rider are destined for greatness in their pursuit to preserve peace and extinguish evil.

TENETS OF the Rider

A paladin who takes this oath has the tenets of the Rider inscribed upon their Driver.

Protect the Innocent. Those who can not protect themselves need a hero to stand up for them. You must never let tyranny crush those with out the means to protect themselves.

Offer Penance and Repentance. Those who have fallen can rise again. Just as the soul of the Rider allows one to clutch victory from defeat so must you offer those who do wrong to turn over a new leaf

Overcome Yourself. There will be times when you doubt yourself. Believe in yourself overcome these obstacles and become the hero that the world needs.

  Oath of the Rider Features

 

Channel Divinity

When you take this oath at 3rd level, you gain the following two Channel Divinity options. See the Sacred Oath class feature for how Channel Divinity works.

Riders Presence. You can use your Channel Divinity to exude a encouraging presence. As an action, you inspire your allies around you. For up to 1 minute allies within 30 feet of you gain a number of Temporary Health Points equal to 2d8 + your class level divided among the number of targets at the end of your turn.

Guided Strike. You can use your Channel Divinity to strike with supernatural accuracy. When you make an attack roll, you can use your Channel Divinity to gain a +10 bonus to the roll. You make this choice after you see the roll, but before the DM says whether the attack hits or misses.

Belt of the Rider

When you take this oath at 3rd level, you gain your Driver an artifact gifted upon you by the purest form of justice. When the time is needed heroes chosen by the spirit of Justice are manifested in the form of Raider Cores each card allows you to augment your armor to adapt to the current situation. Please refer to the Rider Cores Chart below for sources as well as the damage resistance granted by each Rider Core. When gaining this feature you gain the Blade Rider Core and may gain others by Harvesting from powerful Creatures. Additional benefits for cores will be found at the end of the subclass.

You may summon the power of the Rider by placing one core inside of your Driver after doing such you will summon a suit of armor that can not be removed from you for up to 10 minutes. While wearing this armor you take on the aspect of the Kamen Raider. While taking on the aspect of the Kamen Rider you gain a +1 bonus to the armor associated with the core. Melee Attacks made while taking the aspect of the Kamen Rider are treated as magical and count as weapon attacks for Divine Smite and Paladin Spells. When dealing damage with a Melee Attack while taking on the Aspect of the Rider you deal (1d6 + Strength modifier) damage associated with the core you are Driving.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency modifier and regain all charges on a long rest.

At level 15 you gain 1 Rider core you do not already posses and are allowed to Drive two cores at once. These allow combinations where you can use the Rider weapons of one core while applying the damage type of another. Your Rider Weapon and Armor bonuses increase to +2 when using two cores at once.
