A man and a woman platonically raising a child together and not falling in love has to be the biggest plotwist in the Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves movie AND my favorite part

My favourite thing about the D&D movie is it never stops trying to be a D&D movie even down to the most minute, unsung details. There's initiative order gags (I'll go last!) there's rolling a 1 gags (setting off the trap on the bridge by inexplicably just walking up to it) there's stat gags (nobody had high enough Intelligence to be in danger from the Intellect Devourers). Almost every spell is identifiable, from Xenk using smite to Sofina whipping out Finger of Death. Simon's character arc is about his self-confidence being tied to his mastery of magic because Charisma is the spellcasting stat for sorcerers. The era of movies based on games being afraid of their source material is over.

6 years ago i made a piece in honour of the conclusion of the Chroma Conclave. I was inexplicably compelled to draw it yet again thanks to The Legend of Vox Machina.  Time flies.  (Also a friend pointed out that you could tell my current cats are utterly chaotic compared to the cat i lived with when i drew the first piece and it’s extremely true)

Oath of the Stars (a DND 5e Homebrew inspired by @comicaurora)

Tenets of the Stars

A paladin who assumes the Oath of the Stars swears to put their life on the line for the sake of other mortals.

Respect. Life is sacred, and should never be casually taken, nor neglectfully sacrificed.

Responsibility. Excuses, no matter how convincing, do nothing to soften the harm done. One must accept their shortcomings and promise to do better.

Humility. Evil is not unknowable, evil is not alien. Even the greatest paragons can fall from grace if they stop trying to do better.

Channel Divinity

When you take this oath at 3rd level, you gain the following two Channel Divinity options:

Fire Within. As an action, you can light one weapon that you are holding on fire using the burning energy of the stars, using your Channel Divinity. For 1 minute, you deal an additional 1d6 fire damage with every attack made with that weapon (with a minimum bonus of +1). The weapon also emits bright light in a 20-foot radius and dim light 20 feet beyond that. If the weapon is not already magical, it becomes magical for the duration.

You can end this effect on your turn as part of any other action. If you are no longer holding or carrying this weapon, or if you fall unconscious, this effect ends.

Blinding Star. As an action, you invoke the radiance of the stars, using your Channel Divinity to radiate pure bright light. Each creature that can see you within 30 feet of you must make a Wisdom saving throw. Creatures immune to the blinded condition, with blindsight, or who are already blind automatically succeed on this saving throw. If the creature fails its saving throw, it is blinded for 1 minute. A blinded creature can make another Constitution saving throw at the end of its turn.

Oath Spells

You gain oath spells at the paladin levels listed:

3rd level: guiding bolt, searing smite

5th: flame blade, pyrotechnics

9th: blinding smite, flame arrows

13th: fire shield, wall of fire

17th: legend lore, wall of light

These spells all count as paladin spells for you. You always have them prepared, but they don't count towards your number of prepared paladin spells.

Aura of Guidance

Starting at 7th level, friendly creatures within 10 feet of you have advantage on attacks against a creature that dealt damage to you since your last turn.

At 18th level, the range of this aura increases to 30 feet.

Guardian Angel

Beginning at 15th level, when an ally accessible within 30 feet is targeted by an attack, you can use your reaction to move up to them and take the attack instead. The attacker must roll again against your armor class and use the highest roll.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and regain all expended uses after a short or long rest.

Radiant Champion

At 20th level, as an action, you can emanate an aura of starfire. For 1 minute, you gain the following benefits:

Your speed is doubled, and you can jump as far as your speed allows during a turn.

As an action, you can fire a brilliant burst of starfire. Every creature within a 20 ft. cone has to make a Dexterity saving throw against your spell DC or take 12d8 fire damage. A creature who succeeds their Dexterity saving throw takes half damage instead.

A creature takes fire damage equal to your Charisma modifier when they touch you or hit you with a weapon attack the first time on their turn

Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a long rest.

(Shoutout to Queen of Bubble City of the fan Discord for suggesting Legend Lore and getting me rid of that stupid Holy Weapon spell that I hate so much. Also keep posted for more DND 5e homebrew for Aurora, because I'm definitely not gonna stop at one subclass per main character)
