Glorious Path. When taking on the oath of Slaanesh, you get to take on a personal path, this relates to your alluring temptation, and shows how best you serve the prince. a few paths can be found at the bottom of this article

Channel Divinity.

When you take this oath at 3rd level, you gain the following two Channel Divinity options.
Alluring Temptation. You can use your Channel Divinity to augment your alluring presence, granting you a +5 to any Charisma (Persuasion) rolls, and a -3 on any passive Wisdom (Insight) creatures around you have when you speak in regards to elements that relate to your Oaths specific focus (NOTE: MAKE LINES OF DIFFERENT SLAANESH FOCUSES, GLUTTONY, LUST, DESIRE)
Center Stage. presenting your holy symbol and calling out a word around you, you force yourself to become the object of attention to creatures around you. If a creature is within 30 feet of you, they will have disadvantage on any attack rolls made against targets other then you.
