Divine Pact[edit]
When you choose this roguish archetype at 3rd level, as a part of your Blessed Oath, your deity bestows upon you the ability to cast spells.
- Cantrips
- You know two cantrips of your choice from the cleric spell list. You learn additional cleric cantrips of your choice at higher levels, as shown in the Cantrips Known column of the Blessed One table.
- Spell Slots
- The Blessed One table shows how many spell slots you have. The table also shows what the level of those slots is; all of your spell slots are the same level. To cast one of your spells of 1st level or higher, you must expend a spell slot. You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a short or long rest.
- For example, when you are 8th level, you have two 2nd-level spell slots. To cast the 1st-level spell thunderwave, you must spend one of those slots, and you cast it as a 2nd-level spell.
- Spells Known of 1st Level and Higher
- At 1st level, you know three 1st-level spells, two of which are defined by your blessed oath and you choose the third one from either a cleric or paladin spell list
- The Spells Known column of the Blessed One table shows when you learn more spells of 1st level and higher. Whenever your spell slot level raises by one, you are granted 2 new spells from your determined by your oath and a third spell of your choice, which be of a level no higher than what's shown in the table's Slot Level column for your level. When you reach 7th level, for example, you learn 2 new oath spells and a new cleric or paladin spell, which can be 1st or 2nd level.
- Additionally, when you gain a level in this class, you can choose one of the spells you know, not determined by your oath, and replace it with another spell from the cleric or paladin spell list, which also must be of a level for which you have spell slots. You cannot replace spells determined by your Blessed Oath.
- Spellcasting Ability
- Wisdom is your spellcasting ability for your Blesed One spells, as it is through your faith and devotion that you wield your magic. You use your Wisdom whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Wisdom modifier when setting the saving throw DC for a cleric or paladin spell you cast and when making an attack roll with one.
Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Wisdom modifier
Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Wisdom modifier
- Spellcasting Focus
- You can use a holy symbol as a spellcasting focus for your Blessed One spells.
