Oath of the Last Breath

Paladin's of this oath are driven by a pure cause, to cleanse the world of undead. They seek to accomplish this goal by nearly any means. Sometimes called crusaders or death-speakers, paladins who dedicate themselves to this oath believe that no good can from the rituals of undeath.

Tenets of the Oath of the Last Breath The tenets of the Oath of the Last Breath encapsulate the ideas of a time seemingly forgotten. A time before magic was abundantly misused for the corruption of life. This oath emphasizes the natural order of the world, the natural processes of death, and absolute hatred of the undead. Undeath is vile. The existence of undead is enough to provide you with your life's purpose. Look forward to death. The terminal stage of life should be faced with joy and catharsis. Their tools, their fate. Undead creatures manipulate the forces of life and death to their own benefit. You know how to do the same.

Channel Divinity 3rd Level Oath of the Grave Feature Final Reckoning. When a creature that you can see is reduced to 0 hit points, you can use your reaction to consecrate the remains, preventing the creature from being resurrected until you finish a long rest.

When a creature that you can see targets you or a willing creature that you can see with an effect which deals necrotic damage or is a spell of the necromancy school, you can use your reaction to negate the effect by expending a use of your channel divinity.
