Paladin
Base Class: Paladin

“My only god is my honor; My only temple is my merciful courage. This stick that arises from within me, the shield against the oppressed; I make swords against tyrants and the unjust. I will cut off anyone who betrays my honor. I will pay whatever price must be paid on this path; Because my ideals are good, my intentions are pure and my determination is unshakable.”

Defend the Helpless

Stand as a shield for the weak, the wounded, and the voiceless.
Retribution is not for yourself, but for those who cannot defend themselves.

Cleanse Oppression

Pain, tyranny, and needless cruelty are not destiny.
Those who inflict them must face the consequences of their actions.
You are not the judge, but the hand that restores balance.

Channel Wrath with Wisdom

Wrath is a tool, not a master.
Wield your anger to serve justice, not blind vengeance.

Heal After Destruction

When evil falls, your duty is not done.
Rebuild what was broken, tend the wounded, and plant the seeds of hope.

Preserve Purity of Intent

This path is not devotion to a god, but loyalty to a clean heart.
Let good intent guide your actions, never pride.

 

Level 3: Level 3:Vow of the Unbroken Heart

Level 3: Level 3:Blade of Earnest Resolve

As an action, you can use your Channel Divinity to imbue your weapon with pure intent. For 1 minute:

You add your Charisma modifier to attack rolls

The weapon deals radiant damage

The weapon sheds bright light (20 ft) and dim light (20 ft)

The effect ends if you drop the weapon or fall unconscious.

Level 7: Level 7:Mantle of Steadfast Innocence

While you are conscious, you and friendly creatures within 10 feet of you:

  • Have advantage on saving throws against being charmed or frightened

  • Gain a +1 bonus to saving throws made to protect innocents

At 18th level, the aura range increases to 30 feet.

Level 15: Level 15: Intercession of the Pure


At 15th level, your resolve to protect the innocent strengthens. When a creature you can see within 30 feet would take damage from an attack or harmful effect, you can use your reaction to reduce that damage by 1d10 + your Charisma modifier. If that damage would reduce the target to 0 hit points, you may instead reduce it to 1 HP.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all uses on a long rest.

Level 20:Radiance of the Unbowed Soul

As an action, you emanate the full power of your pure intent for 1 minute (once per long rest):

  • Bright light in a 30-foot radius

  • Enemies take 10 radiant damage at the start of their turn

  • You and allies gain:

    • Resistance to radiant and necrotic damage

    • Advantage on death saving throws

While this form lasts, you cannot willingly abandon innocents.
