Way of the Zealot (5e Subclass)

Way of the Zealot

Priests are not the only ones to serve and practice divine power. Some of the true followers of the deities devote their mind and bodies to becoming an extension of their deity's divine will. They follow their tenets with an undying passion, never wavering in their desire to effect their deity's ends, often acting as inquisitors.

At the eventful moment these zealots are touched by their deities, who grants them a fragment of their divine power to further empower them in achieving their goals.

Divine Fury

Starting when you choose this tradition at 3rd level, you can channel divine fury into your attacks. When you use the Attack action on your turn, you can spend 1 ki point to glow with radiant power. Your reach on with your attacks increases by 10 feet for that action, as well as the rest of the turn. A hit with such an attack deals radiant damage, and if you spend 1 ki point when the attack hits, it also deals extra damage equal to 1d6 + half your monk level. The extra damage is radiant.

Divine Will

At 6th level, you gain the ability to channel your ki to exact your god’s will. You can spend 3 ki points to cast hold person, zone of truth, or detect thoughts.

You can spend additional ki points to cast at a higher-level spell. Each additional ki point you spend increases the spell’s level by 1. The maximum number of ki points (3 plus any additional points) that you can spend on the spell equals half your monk level.

Divine Persistence

Beginning at 11th level, your righteous fury keeps you going in battle. When you are reduced to 0 hit points, you can expend 1 ki point (no action required) to have 1 hit point instead.

Divine Pacification

At 17th level, you gain the ability to pacify someone with your divine might. When you hit a creature with an unarmed strike, you can spend 3 ki points to have them make a Constitution saving throw. If it fails, it is reduced to 0 hit points, and is knocked out and not dying. If it succeeds, it takes 10d10 radiant (nonlethal) damage.
