Godbinders, as indicated by their name, are known for
binding the aspects of gods. Aspects are like the sparks of
divinity that radiates from the divine domain of a god, and
Godbinders channel those sparks to commune with gods.
However, this is not all - they place a part of that divine spark
within themselves to be able to call upon that god whenever
they so wish. The relationship in a sense is like taking Work with your GM to determine how big a part your divine

Divine Conduit
At 3rd level, your command and control the divine forces
intervening in the world has grown. You imbue an object to
channel the deities you've bound to your will. You gain one of
the following features of your choice.
Conduit of Chains.
Choose a holy symbol in your possession. Chains of divine
fire fall from it, with a suitable length to where it can be
wrapped and bound to a part of your body. You can create 50
feet of divine, unbreakable chains at will.
These chains dissipate twenty-four hours after they are
created. As an action you can break off two chain links, you
can choose to keep them or hand them out. You can use this
feature twice. You regain expended uses when you finish a
short or long rest.
As an action, you can consume a link to cast the hold person
or augury spells. The hold person spell is always cast as
though it were 2nd-level spell.
If you lose possession of this holy symbol, the power fades
from it until it returns to your hands. The symbol ceases
being your conduit symbol if you die or if you perform the 1-
hour ritual on a different holy symbol.
Conduit of Power.
Choose a weapon in your possession. Divine power flows
through it and now deals radiant damage in addition to its
other damage types. This weapon counts as magical for the
purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity to
nonmagical attacks and damage.
Portents of doom, danger, and victory echo through your
veins when you carry this weapon. As long as you wield this
weapon you can use it to perform a reaction when you are
targeted by a melee attack to cause the attack to miss. You
can use this feature twice. You regain expended uses when
you finish a short or long rest.
If you lose possession of this weapon, the power fades from it
until it returns to your hands. The weapon ceases being your
conduit weapon if you die or if you perform the 1-hour ritual
on a different weapon.
Conduit of Protection.
Choose armor in your possession. It becomes wreathed in
divine energy. If you so choose it can provide a bright light in
a 10-foot radius and dim light for an additional 5 feet.
As long as you wear this armor you can use it to take a bonus
action to gain resistance to one damage type of your choice,
then gain 1d12 temporary hit points; the damage resistance
lasts until you take a short rest. You can use this feature
twice. You regain expended uses when you finish a short or
long rest.
If you lose possession of this armor, the power fades from it
until it returns to you and wear it. The armor ceases being
your conduit armor if you die or if you perform the 1-hour
ritual on different armor.
