Paladin - Oath of the List

The paladin stands amidst the snowdrift, eyes checking a small list in his hands. Was this kid good this year? Or will the child receive a lump of coal this year?

This one's a fun subclass for the paladin. Despite the goofiness of making a bunch of Santa-themed ones this winter, I realize it's equally important they stand on their own for wider appeal. As a result, most of the references to Santa in an individual page has become more tongue-in-cheek. The upcoming compendium will still retain all the goofiness, though!

This paladin occupies a Judgment oath more focused on fair retribution. It has a bit of flavor from other subclasses, but also some unique ones: the Better Watch Out aura is situational, but beneficial when fighting invisible or stealthy enemies without expending a faerie fire. Better Not Cry is a minor defensive ability, but makes fights against monsters with auto-fear mechanics very interesting.
