“From my ashes, a dawn. From my end, a beginning.”

Paladins who swear the Oath of the Celestial Phoenix bind their souls to the endless cycle of destruction and renewal written across the stars. Like the great cosmic phoenix — a stellar flame that dies in glorious collapse only to rise again brighter than before — these warriors dedicate themselves to the protection of others through selfless sacrifice. They do not fear their own fall, for they know that in death they ignite new hope.

Wherever darkness spreads and hope wanes, a Celestial Phoenix rises to stand defiant, their light a beacon in the void. Their strength is not hoarded, but given freely; their destiny is to burn so that others may be warmed, to fall so that others may soar.

TENETS

My Light For Theirs
My strength, my flame, my life itself — I give all freely so others may endure. What is my light, if not a gift to the world?

 From Ashes, Dawn
I do not fear destruction, for in my fall I sow the seeds of new hope. Every end is but the first breath of a greater beginning.

Kindness is My Flame
As the stars warm the coldest night, so too will I meet the world with compassion. Let my words and deeds be a comfort to the weary and a balm for the broken.

I Will Face the Unfathomable
Against the might of gods or the endless night, I will not falter. Though the foe is beyond reckoning, I will burn bright in defiance, so others may stand after me.

Stars breathe : When you begin your turn at 0 hit points and are dying, you can use your Channel Divinity to instantly succeed on a death saving throw, as if you had nat 20'd, having all the same effects.

Celestial redirecttion : When a creature you can see within 30 feet takes damage from an attack or fails a saving throw against a damaging effect, you can use your Channel Divinity (reaction) to redirect the harm. Choose a different creature within 30 feet of the original target. That creature takes radiant damage equal to the damage the original target would have taken. The Original target takes no damage.

• While transformed enemies within your aura have their movement halved and attack rolls against you and allies are made with disadvantage.Whenever a creature hits you with an attack or forces you to make a save, it takes radiant damage equal to half the damage you take from the attack.
• Once during the transformation, as a bonus action, you can unleash a radiant explosion dealing radiant damage equal to your paladin level to all enemies within 30 feet.
• Once during the transformation, if brought to 0hp, you instead of making death saving throws, get up, with half your total hp, you may choose to give this to an ally within 60ft of you instead. for clarification, this does not count as healing or regaining hp. you died and came back to life
