Oath of Monstrosity

When a Paladin suffers greatly at the hands of injustice, they might succumb to great rage, anger, and perhaps insanity - turning to dark powers to do anything from tremendous good to great evil all in order to serve their one obsession- whether that is protecting the weak, upholding justice, or just plain tyranny. The Paladins of the Oath of Monstrosity are some such individuals. Harnessing power from the most twisted of creatures, these Paladins take the magic from the lower planes and turn it into a dark and depraved strength. These ‘Blood Knights’ experience great change in their physiology as they descend further and further into corruption, growing horns, scales, tough demonic hide, and all manner of horrid mutations. While possible, not all Blood Knights fall so far as to abandon their obsession as that is the only thing holding back the tide of insanity deep inside their spirits.
