Oath of Protection (5e Subclass)

When taking this class you swear to protect others who can't protect and help your allies when they are down or hurt

Oath
Protect Those Who Need It
Your strength is more than just a weapon; it is a shield. Interpose yourself between those bent on violence and those who cannot defend themselves. You put yourself in harm’s way to spare another the pain that violence brings.
Give Succor
If you are not able to prevent the outbreak of violence, it is your sacred duty to tend to those who are its victims. You have been gifted with the ability to heal wounds, cure poisons, and lift diseases; such a gift is wasted if it is not used. Tend to the wounded, the weak, and the ill and put them before yourself.
Courage
You must be willing to do what needs to be done for the sake of order, even in the face of overwhelming odds. If you don't act, then who will?
Responsibility
You must deal with the consequences of your actions, and you are responsible for fulfilling your duties and obligations.
