Oath of the Aspirant

Aspirants are Paladins who are warriors without peer. If a Aspirant wishes to prove himself worthy of a place amongst his Chapter, bravery and skill are not enough -- he must complete a series of quests to establish his character and cause.

Given the perilous nature of these quests, it is little wonder that only the boldest Aspirants become Paladins. Nevertheless, it is almost unheard of for an Aspirant to the rank to abandon his quests, as to do so is to incur grave dishonour. Whilst the cost of pursuing the Paladin's quests is high, it ensures that nowhere in the World can so noble an assemblage of warriors be found.

A light against the darkness, the Aspirants stand against the greatest threat the world has ever faced. They are the champions of reason, order and righteousness, holding back daemons and the scions of the Dark Gods.

Channel Divinity

When you take this oath at 3rd level, you gain the following two Channel Divinity options.

Arcane Sight. - As a bonus action, you can choose to imbue your sight with the gift of the arcane. Doing so increases your vision in such that your character gains darkvision to a range of 60 ft. If you already have darkvision from your race, its range increases by 30 feet. Additionally to the range of your darkvision you can see the weave around spells and objects granting vision of the magic imbued in these things. This functions as a lesser version of the detect magic spell as you do not know what school of magic it is just that it exists. You also gain Advantage on checks made with the Arcana, Religion, and History skills.

Aegis of the Aspirant. As a bonus action, you can utter a word of protection. For 1 minute, you gain a bonus to your AC equal to half your Charisma modifier (rounded down). This effect ends early if you die or if you are incapacitated.

Aura of the Aspirant

At 7th Level you Master the fighting style of the Aspirant. This Aura give you access to 2 postures. Switching postures requires an action to complete.

Aggressive : Adds your Charisma modifier to your melee weapon damage rolls.

Defensive : Increases the effective range of your auras to 30 ft. (60 ft. with Aura Improvements). Those within range gain Aspirants Ward. As a Bonus Action the paladin can choose a single target within aura range not currently effected by the ward to apply the full ward to. Taking this posture requires the use of a shield. This also reduces your movement speed by half.

• Aspirants Ward. This creates a Ward on Friendly creatures within the aura range of the paladin equal to twice your charisma modifier + your paladin level. This ability does stack with Temporary Hit points. The ward will regenerate equal to your proficiency bonus at the beginning of the paladin's turn each round. This effect ends if the creatures leaves the range of the aura or if the paladin falls unconscious.

Seals of Purity

Starting at 15th level you can choose to activate one of the following seals on your armor. This choice requires a long rest in order to change and can you can only activate a single seal at a time.

Seal of Absorption. - Your aspirants ward is always activate on yourself. And while in defensive posture your personal ward regenerates an additional hit point per round.

Seal of Resistance. - Your Aura now grants resistance to magical damage for all friendly creatures of your choice within range. You can choose a number of damage types equal to half your charisma modifier(rounded down) when you activate this seal. Those effected by this seal also gain resistance to bludgeoning, slashing, and piercing damage from non-magical sources.

Seal of Leadership. - Your Aura now gives Advantage to saving throws against being Charmed, Frightened, and Paralyzed.

 

 

Avatar of the Order.

At 20th level, you can assume the form of an Holy Juggernaut. Using your action, you undergo a transformation. For 1 minute or until you are incapacitated, you gain the following benefits:

• You can activate up to 3 seals on your armor granting their benefits for the duration of the transformation.
• You are considered as being in both postures granting the benefits of both without the movement reduction or weapon restrictions for the duration of the transformation.

Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again until you finish a long rest.
