A [[Fate|Fated]] subclass of [[Paladin]]. --- ![[List of Oath of the Water Lord Paladins]] --- ## Level 3 - Oath Spells You gain oath spells at the paladin levels listed in the Oath of the Open Seas Spells table. See the [Sacred Oath](https://www.dndbeyond.com/sources/phb/paladin#OathSpells "Sacred Oath") class feature for how oath spells work. ##### Oath of the Open Sea Spells | Paladin Level | Spells | | ------------- | ---------------------------------------------------- | | 3rd | [[Create or Destroy Water]], [[Expeditious Retreat]] | | 5th | [[Augury]], [[Misty Step]] | | 9th | [[Call Lightning]], [[Freedom of the Waves]] | | 13th | [[Control Water]], [[Freedom of Movement]] | | 17th | [[Commune with Nature]], [[Freedom of the Winds]] | ## Level 3 - Channel Divinity When you take this oath at 3rd level, you gain the following two [[Channel Divinity]] options. **_Marine Layer._** As an action, you channel the sea to create a thick cloud of fog that surrounds you for 20 feet in all directions. The fog moves with you, remaining centered on you and making its area heavily obscured. You and each creature within 5 feet of you instead treat the area as lightly obscured. This fog lasts for 10 minutes, spreads around corners, and cannot be dispersed unless you choose to end this effect (no action required). _**Fury of the Tides.**_ As a bonus action, you channel the powerful might of the waves to bolster your attacks for 1 minute. Once per turn for the duration, when you hit a creature with a weapon attack, you can choose to push the target 10 feet away from you. If pushed into an obstacle or another creature, the target takes bludgeoning damage equal to your Charisma modifier. ## Level 3 - Undine 6-Shooter Your oath to [[Istishia]] has been rewarded with a gift, an [[Undine 6-Shooter]]. This 6-shooter is treated as a ranged weapon with which you are proficient. This weapon has a range of 30/90 feet and deals 1d8 plus your CHA modifier cold damage. This weapon has the _reload 6_ property. ## Level 7 - Aura of Liberation Starting at 7th level, you fill nearby creatures with the energy of movement. While you’re not incapacitated, you and creatures of your choice within 10 feet of you cannot be grappled or restrained, and ignore penalties on movement and attacks while underwater. Creatures that are already grappled or restrained when they enter the aura can spend 5 feet of movement to automatically escape unless they are bound by magic restraints. When you reach 18th level in this class, the aura affects creatures within 30 feet of you. ## Level 9 - Fate Sparks of [[Fate]] are granted to those strong enough to wield them, bolstering their prowess and skill. Each Spark of Fate allows a wielder to spend the spark on a skill from their respective skill tree. | Ability Name | Description | | ------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Dragon Turtle Shell | While your **Channel Divinity: Fury of the Tides** is active, you grow spikes on your shell.
