Oath of the blood sworn paladin
Hi guys this is my first post here but I wanted to have input on a subclass I thought of for the paladin before putting it in our adventure. I know it's too strong but I hope to keep the flavor while lowering the overall power
With that out of the way this is the oath of the blood sworn paladin
