Oath of the Sun

This is a Sacred Oath that can be taken by paladins.

The Oath of the Sun binds paladins to the ideals of showing kindness, mercy, and compassion.The Oath values true neutrality, as its paladins, also called angels, balancers, kindle knights, and flamehands, strive to eliminate evil balance. They adorn their red and gold weapons and armor with flames, symbolizing rebirth and power. They believe that if balance is not maintained, the Eternal Flame will be extinguished and all life will cease to exist. In times of great danger to the balance, Paladins will arise and swear the Oath of the Sun to defeat the powerful forces of  evil that threaten it.

Tenets of the Sun

The exact Tenets vary from Paladin to Paladin, but they all revolve around maintaining balance and gaining power.

Keep the Balance. Seek out and destroy strong forces of  evil that threaten to overthrow the sacred balance and extinguish the Eternal Flame.

Initiative. Followers of the Sun must be proactive, and take charge of situations as the principle means of defeating evil.

Respect the Fire. Control over fire represents control over order and chaos. If unchecked, the flames can spread and destroy. When understood and tamed, it can create civilizations. Extinguish flames where they rage uncontrolled or burn too brightly. Bring fire to places of primitive cultures and teach them to harness it; light the darkness and bring warmth.

Rebirth. Cities may fall, fields may burn, dynasties may die: always from the ashes something new arises. On encountering destruction or death, plant the seeds for regrowth (be it for good or evil). On great personal failure – or physical or emotional wounds – take ownership, change, and arise like a phoenix.

Bonus Cantrip

At third level when you take this Oath, you learn the Sacred Flames cantrip if you don't already have it from another source. As with your other spells, Charisma is your casting modifier for it.
