Paladin subclass
Glory
Athletic heroism, mobility, and inspiring defense.
Glory starts by changing the normal Paladin play pattern through Oath Spells; Channel Divinity: Peerless Athlete, Inspiring Smite, giving the subclass its first clear mechanical identity.
Later features such as Aura of Alacrity, Glorious Defense, Living Legend expand that identity at higher levels, so the subclass has a clearer role in combat, exploration, utility, or support.
