Oath of Brutality

Devote to Entropic Forces

The Oath of Brutality is typically only taken in worship of a specific God, a vengeful or angry one. Paladins sworn to the Oath of Brutality don't find honor or justice in restraint, rather, they find it in extremity. They are inclined to adorn their armor in many symbols beholdent to their cause, taking pride in their loyalty and their oath. Often, these paladins follow a similar philosophy: if it belongs to the enemy, it is not sacred, and they are permissed to destroy it in the name of devastation. They know their actions cannot be reversed - and they relish in it.

These Paladins follow the following tenets.

• Never surrender.
• Devastate your enemies.
• Do not hold back.

Level 3: Oath of Brutality Spells

The magic of your oath ensures you always have certain spells ready; when you reach a Paladin level specified in the Oath of Brutality Spells table, you thereafter always have the spells prepared.

Paladin Level	Spells
3	Hex, Hellish Rebuke
5	Scorching Ray, Ray of Enfeeblement
9	Fireball, Vampiric Touch
13	Blight, Wall of Fire
17	Contagion, Flame Strike

Level 3: Channel Divinity: Crippling Response

As a Reaction to taking damage from an attack roll, you can expend 1 use of your Channel Divinity to make an Attack of Opportunity. If this attack hits, the enemy has Disadvantage on Constitution and Dexterity saving throws for 1 minute.

Level 7: Aura of Entropy

While within your Aura of Protection, you and allies have Resistance to Fire and Necrotic damage.

Level 15: Mar With Dread

When you deal Necrotic or Fire damage to an enemy, you can force this enemy to make a Wisdom saving throw against your Spell Save DC. On a failure, it becomes Frightened of you for 1 minute. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Proficiency Bonus per Long Rest. It repeats this save every time it enters line of sight after breaking it, and the condition ends when it passes the save.

Level 20: Vicious Concentration

As an action, you push your focus beyond its natural limits for 1 minute. While in this state, you can maintain Concentration on two spells if both are from the Oath of Brutality spell list. If this state ends while you are concentrating on more than one spell, you choose one of them to continue concentrating on. The other immediately ends. You can use this feature once per Long Rest.
