|trait1desc=When you reach 3rd level, you gain the ability to cast spells. See ''{{srd5lc|Spellcasting}}'' and ''[[/Spell|divine path spells]]''.

====Cantrips====
You learn three {{srd5lc|Cantrip}}s of your choice from the [[SRD5:Cleric/Spell|cleric spell list]]. You learn another cleric cantrip of your choice at 10th level.

====Spell Slots====
After finishing a {{srd5lc|Long Rest}}, you may spend 1/3 (round down, minimum of 1) of your ki points to gain spell slots. The Divine Path Spellcasting Table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your spells of 1st level or higher. To cast one of these spells, you must expend a slot of the spell's level or higher. 

For example, if you know the 1st-level spell ''{{srd5lc|Cure Wounds}}'' and have a 1st-level and 2nd-level spell slot available, you can cast ''cure wounds'' using either slot.

The any remaining spell slots are lost when you finish the next long rest.

====Spells Known of 1st-Level and Higher====
You know three 1st-level cleric spells of your choice from the {{srd5lc|Abjuration}} and {{srd5lc|Evocation}} spells on the cleric spell list

The Spells Known column of the Divine Path Spellcasting table shows when you learn more cleric spells of 1st level or higher. Each of these spells must be an abjuration or evocation spell of your choice and must be of a level for which you have spell slots. For instance, when you reach 7th level in this class, you can learn one new spell of 1st or 2nd level.

Whenever you gain a level in this class, you can replace one of the cleric spells you know with another spell of your choice from the cleric spell list. The new spell must be of a level for which you have spell slots, and it must be an abjuration or evocation spell.

=====Divine Path Spells=====
''See [[/Spell|Way of the Divine Path Spells]]s''

====Spellcasting Ability====
{{SRD5|Wisdom}} is your {{srd5lc|Spellcasting Ability}} for your cleric spells, since you learn your spells through dedicated prayer and meditation. You use your Wisdom whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Wisdom modifier when setting the saving throw {{SRD5|DC}} for a cleric spell you cast and when making an {{srd5lc|Attack Roll}} with one.

'''Spell save DC''' = 8 + your {{srd5lc|Proficiency Bonus}} + your Wisdom modifier<br />
'''Spell attack modifier''' = your proficiency bonus + your Wisdom modifier

|trait2name=Destroy the Unholy
|trait2desc=Starting at 6th level, as an {{srd5lc|Action}}, you expend two ki points and speak a prayer censuring {{srd5lc|Fiend}}s and {{srd5lc|Undead}}. Each fiend or undead that can see or hear you within 30 feet of you must make a Wisdom saving throw (same DC as if you were casting a spell). If such a creature fails the save, the creature is instantly {{srd5lc|Destroyed}} if its {{srd5lc|Challenge Rating}} is at or below a certain threshold, as shown in the Destroy Unholy table.

If the fiend or undead fails the save, but is of a high enough CR that it is not destroyed, it is ''turned'' for 1 {{srd5lc|Minute}} or until it takes damage. A ''turned'' creature must spend its {{srd5lc|Turn}}s trying to [[SRD5:Movement|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 {{srd5lc|Reaction}}s. For its action, it can use only the {{srd5lc|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 {{srd5lc|Dodge}} action. 

|trait3name=Empowered Healing
|trait3desc=Starting at 11th level, when you cast a healing spell of 1st level or higher, you may spend 2 ki points to add your {{srd5lc|Proficiency Bonus}} to the number of {{srd5lc|Hit Point}}s gained.

|trait4name=Banishment
|trait4desc=Beginning at 17th level, you may spend 3 ki points and use an action to cast {{5espell|Banishment}} without spending a spell slot. Once you do so, you may not use this feature again until you finish a long rest.

|desc=Some monks follow the path of the divine. These monks are devoted to a {{5ep|Deity}} or {{SRD5|Divine Domain}}. They empower their prayer and meditation with ki. This grants them the ability to cast cleric spells and embody holy energy.
