Paladin Sacred Oaths - v2.5.0 Update!
🕑 Added 2024-02-18 15:44:58 +0000 UTCHappy Sunday all! After Two Years I’ve finally gotten around to updating my Compendium of Paladin Sacred Oaths! The options here are all meant to be used with the Paladin class as presented in the Player’s Handbook.
Though, an Alternate Paladin Class is currently in development!
As always, let me know what you think of the options here! I’m always open to constructive criticism and feedback - let me know in the comments!
Patrons, the Alternate Oath of the Blade is now LIVE. This Patron-exclusive option uses my system of Martial Exploits in place of Maneuvers!

PALADIN COMPENDIUM v2.5.0
Beauty. No major changes here, play as a paragon of all things beautiful!
Blade. Sacrifice spellcasting for increased martial skill with this Oath! The language of Sacred Duel has been clarified, and Oath Spells have been cut in favor of Maneuvers.
Corsair. Take to the high seas with this freedom-loving Paladin! Wrath of the Sea has been reworked to be more consistent damage. Some small changes to Grand Captain.
Exorcist. Swear to defend the living from the dead with this adapted version of the Blood Hunter’s Order of Ghostslayers for the Paladin Class. You can also check out my Alternate Blood Hunter Class for a more mechanically balanced take on the class!
Forge. NEW Sacred Oath based on creation, craft, and the Forge Domain Cleric.
Inquisition. No one expects the Inquisition Paladin! Search for truth no matter the cost. Unstoppable Inquisition has been replaced with the new Aura of Truth at 7th level.
Liberty. Stand for the people against unjust laws and systems - throw your DM’s game world into anarchy! Some abilities have been tweaked by the 20th level feature is new!
Mysticism. Oops - looks like you got some psionics in your Paladin!
Shield. Stand as the ultimate beacon of defense - now with the shield spell!
Wilds. NEW Sacred Oath - a more bestial-focused companion to the Ancients Paladin.
Oathless. For the Paladin who forsakes their Oath for selfish reasons, but isn’t a total undead-obsessed evil edgelord (aka Oathbreaker).
Fighting Styles. I’ve also included a handful of my own Fighting Styles that can be made available to Paladins - some are exclusive options for certain Sacred Oaths.
