Channel Divinity
When you take this oath at 3rd level, you gain the following
two Channel Divinity options.
Turn the Aberrant: As an action, you can make any
aberration or undead, provided that it's within 30 feet and
that can see or hear you, make a Wisdom saving throw. If the
creature fails its saving throw, it is turned for 1 minute or
until it takes damage. A turned creature must spend its turns
trying to move as far away from you as it can, and it can't
willingly move to a space within 30 feet of you. It also can't
take reactions. For its action, it can use only the Dash action
or try to escape from an effect that prevents it from moving. If
there's nowhere to move, the creature can use the Dodge
action.
If the creature's true form is concealed by an illusion,
shapeshifting, or other effect, that form is revealed while it is
turned.
