Templar Liam Cassaro
The oath sworn by many paladins of the Pilgrim Knights, an order dedicated to the serving the goddess Freya. In her service, they defend civilization from outside forces that wish to see it razed. Some who swear this oath join the Charitor branch and are stationed at a temple, where the poor are fed and healed. Others join the ranks of the Spears as heavily armored cavalry, bringing shock and awe to their enemies. Regardless of their chosen path, they value a life of service and devotion to a higher power.
Tenets of the Templar
The tenets of the Templar outline the central mission of their order. For the Pilgrim Knights, the following are core beliefs:
- Protect the Weak: Through you the innocents will find peace, food, and shelter.
- Spread the Light: Converting others to the faith is a virtue in itself.
- Civilization Must Hold: The cities of the world must be defended from the forces of Darkness.
- Return What Was Stolen: The artifacts of the Lightgiver must be recovered and returned to her.

Level 3: Channel Divinity
You gain the following Channel Divinity options:
Sword Leap: As an action, you leap high in the air with supernatural strength before crashing down in an unoccupied space you can see within 30 feet. All creatures within 5 feet of that location must make a Dexterity saving throw or take 7 (2d6) bludgeoning damage and fall Prone. On a successful save, they take half damage and do not fall prone. Creatures that are more than one size larger than you do not fall Prone. You can do this while mounted, causing your mount to leap instead.
Invoke the Name: As part of the Influence action, you can invoke the name of your deity or order, granting you advantage on the check you make as part of that action. If the check still fails, the Channel Divinity is not consumed.
Level 7: Into The Fray
If you move at least 20 feet towards an enemy in a straight line, you gain advantage on the first attack roll you make against that enemy before the end of your turn. This feature works while mounted on mounts you summon via Find Steed.
In addition, you can use Sword Leap as a bonus action.
Level 15: Divine Providence
Your deity has extended their protection to your efforts in their name. You are permanently under the effect of the Bless spell. This also extends to the mounts you summon via Find Steed.
Level 20: Seraphic Apotheosis
You can take on the form of a valkyrie, a celestial herald of the gods. As a bonus action, you burst into brilliant light. Each creature of your choice within 30 feet must make a Constitution saving throw against your spell save DC or be Blinded until the end of your next turn. Fiends and Undead have disadvantage on this save. You also gain the following benefits for 1 minute:
- You sprout angelic wings, giving you a flying speed of 60 feet.
- Once on each of your turns you can cast Divine Smite for free.
- If your total for a Constitution saving throw to maintain concentration on a spell is less than your Charisma score, you can use that score in place of the total.
Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a long rest, unless you expend a 5th-level spell slot to use it again.
