Oath of the Hunt

The forces of evil are cruel, merciless, and tireless in their pursuits of power. Good, too, must match them in their tenacity and lethality. Paladins who swear an Oath of the Hunt train to become wandering bastions of justice, smiting those who threaten the greater good with impeccable speed and precision.

Tenets of the Hunt

Eradicate all Evil. No matter it's form and no matter its actions, all that is evil must be slain.

Swiftness. Evil never rests, and neither should you. Never wait for evil to strike first.

Unyielding. No matter what, never yield to evil or put aside your mission.

Pragmatism. Sacrifices must be made for the greater good, and traits like honor are reserved only for the good. Evil deserves no such respect.

Channel Divinity

When you take this oath at 3rd level, your smite spells and divine smites can now be applied to ranged and thrown weapons. Additionally, you gain the following two Channel Divinity options.

Hunter's Fury. When you hit a creature with a ranged weapon attack, you can illuminate that creature in bright light. All attack rolls made against that creature until the end of your next turn have advantage, and the creature takes a bonus 6 (2d6) radiant damage from the first successful attack a creature makes against them.

Hunter's Agility. As an action, you bless a creature within 10 feet of you with the swiftness of the wilds. For 10 minutes, that creature cannot have their movement speed reduced by any means, and gains a flying and swimming speed equal to their walking speed if they do not already possess them.

Oath Spells

You gain oath spells at the paladin levels listed.
