==== Oath Spells ====

You gain additional spells from your oath. They are [[Spells#Known Spells|Always Prepared]].

* {{SAI|Protection from Energy|c=16}}

* {{SAI|Plant Growth}}

*Torturing the prisoner in the goblin camp, even if you want to free him with this

*As [[Dark Urge]], choosing to break [[Pandirna|Pandirna's]] legs

*Prodding the wing of the [[Exhausted Bird]]

*Using [[Bitter Divorce]] to raise [[Mayrina|Mayrina's]] [[Connor Vinderblad|Husband]] from the dead after defeating [[Auntie Ethel]]

*Taking Auntie Ethel's deal once she surrenders will break your Oath regardless of if you convince her to free Mayrina or not.

*Siding with [[Glut|Sovereign Glut]] to defeat [[Spaw|Sovereign Spaw]]

*Killing the [[Owlbear Cub]] after killing his mother

*Actions that guards do not like, or leave the "Witness" status, appear to cause a broken Oath, (even attacking Duergar after telling the Deep Gnomes you'll free them in [[Grymforge]] caused this). Noting that starting combat via conversational choices rather than attacking directly does seem to mitigate this most of the time.

*Shoving someone to their death also counts as breaking the oath. This sometimes also includes evil characters such as Assassins of Bhaal in the arena where you fight [[Orin]].

*Killing someone non-hostile, even by "accident" (i.e. an NPC steps into an area-of-effect spell such as Moonbeam/Spike Growth and dies)

 

*Calling Madeline a coward for the Punish the Wicked quest.

 

*Forming an alliance with [[Gortash]] before his coronation

*Freeing the vampire spawns in [[Cazador's Dungeon]] is seen as an act against nature, breaking the pact.}}
