The knight exudes a powerful presence. At the start of each of the knight's turns, it chooses one of the following presences, which lasts until the start of the knight's next turn.

  • Empowering Presence. Each friendly creature that starts its turn within 15 feet of the knight has advantage on the first attack roll it makes before this presence ends.
  • Protective Presence. Hostile creatures have disadvantage on attack rolls against friendly creatures within 5 feet of the knight.
  • Unwavering Presence. Each friendly creature within 15 feet of the knight is resistant to the charmed and frightened conditions.
