Eberron Paladin

A paladin is a champion empowered by faith, and a paladin’s oath is a symbol of that faith and a source of guidance in dark or confusing times. Problems are rarely simple, and those too rigid might shatter against the complexities of a noir tale in Eberron. Faith needn’t be blind, and like the paladin, it should evolve. Tira Miron founded the Church of the Silver Flame, but she began as a paladin of Dol Arrah, discovering the Silver Flame and her destiny over the course of her adventures. A soldier has a cause and purpose, but a paladin is bound by sacred oath. Don’t be afraid to explore these trappings and, should the story present the right reasons, abandon them. Morgrave Miscellany, page 49, gives examples of what playing a Paladin in Eberron might look like.

In addition to the subclass options presented on dndbeyond, the following Paladin Oaths are also available:

Oath of Liberty

History is pervaded with the presence of oppression and tyranny. But the tales of liberation—of freedom hard-fought for and won—are always the tales that inspire the most. People yearn to be free, and paladins who take the Oath of Liberty will give their all so that others may claim that freedom. Some call them freedom fighters, holy liberators, or knight saviors, but they humbly refuse the mantle of hero. To these paladins, they fight to preserve the freedom of all people, a thing which they believe shouldn't have to be fought for, in a perfect world. They're merely putting right what went wrong.

In the world of Eberron, many Paladins of Liberty devote themselves to Olladra, Dol Arrah, or Boldrei, but far more of these paladins follow no particular faith, except faith in the Code of Galifar. When it still existed, the Kingdom of Galifar was a shining example of just rule and protection against tyranny. It is said Galifar the First personally freed goblins from slavery and offered them full rights of citizenship in the nation he was forging. The Code of Galifar also guarantees the rights of all intelligent folk, be they human, elf, ogre, goblin, or gnoll, the right to life and liberty. In the current day, the reemergence of the institution of slavery with the rise of Darguun and Droaam has driven many paladins to speak new oaths, swearing by the law of a kingdom that no longer is, in the hope of a brighter tomorrow.

Oath of the Unbroken (Warforged Only)

"We are not your slaves. We were born bowed. But we are unbroken.” Such were the words spoken to King Boranel of Breland by Bastion, his warforged friend and companion.

Warforged are weapons. It is what they were created for. But now the warforged are free, and each of them must discover for themselves what kind of weapon they will be. Every warforged must now decide who or what they will fight for. Warforged paladins who swear the Oath of the Unbroken have decided to fight for the warforged who are discovering themselves.
