When making a ranged attack while you are within 5 feet of a hostile creature, you do not have disadvantage on the attack roll. When a creature you can see attacks a target other than you that is within 5 feet of you, you can use your reaction to impose disadvantage on the attack roll. You must be wielding a shield or a simple or martial weapon to use this reaction. When a creature you can see hits a target, other than you, within 5 feet of you with an attack, you can use your reaction to reduce the damage the target takes by 1d10 + your proficiency bonus (to a minimum of 0 damage). The weapon must have the two-handed or versatile property for you to gain this benefit. When you roll a 1 or 2 on a damage die for an attack you make with a melee weapon that you are wielding with two hands, you can reroll the die and must use the new roll, even if the new roll is a 1 or a 2. When you are wielding a melee weapon in one hand and no other weapons, you gain a +2 bonus to damage rolls with that weapon. While you are wearing armor, you gain a +1 bonus to AC. Moreover, you can see an invisible creature within that range, unless the creature successfully hides from you. Within that range, you can effectively see anything that isn't behind total cover, even if you're blinded or in darkness. You have blindsight with a range of 10 feet. Whenever you gain a level in this class, you can replace one of these cantrips with another cantrip from the cleric spell list. They count as paladin spells for you, and Charisma is your spellcasting ability for them. You learn two cantrips of your choice from the cleric spell list. You can't take a Fighting Style option more than once, even if you later get to choose again. Starting at 2nd level, you adopt a particular style of fighting as your specialty. This feature has no effect on undead and constructs. You can cure multiple diseases and neutralize multiple poisons with a single use of Lay on Hands, expending hit points separately for each one. With that pool, you can restore a total number of hit points equal to your paladin level x 5.Īs an action, you can touch a creature and draw power from the pool to restore a number of hit points to that creature, up to the maximum amount remaining in your pool.Īlternatively, you can expend 5 hit points from your pool of healing to cure the target of one disease or neutralize one poison affecting it. You have a pool of healing power that replenishes when you take a long rest. When you finish a long rest, you regain all expended uses.
You can use this feature a number of times equal to 1 + your Charisma modifier. Within the same radius, you also detect the presence of any place or object that has been consecrated or desecrated, as with the Hallow spell. You know the type (celestial, fiend, or undead) of any being whose presence you sense, but not its identity (the vampire Count Strahd von Zarovich, for instance). Until the end of your next turn, you know the location of any celestial, fiend, or undead within 60 feet of you that is not behind total cover.
As an action, you can open your awareness to detect such forces. The presence of strong evil registers on your senses like a noxious odor, and powerful good rings like heavenly music in your ears.
