Shadowfell, becoming exposed to the fell energies
With a pseudodragon curled on his shoulder, a young
elf in black robes smiles sinisterly, torturing the mind of
his foe with a psychic curse.
As a flaming Eldritch Blast streaks forth from her hands,
a human utters an incantation, infusing her blast with
eldritch magic.
Shifting his gaze between a battered scroll and the odd
alignment of the stars overhead, a wild-eyed tiefling
mutters a dark word, binding fate to his will.
Warlocks are seekers of the knowledge that lies hidden
in the fabric of the multiverse. Through pacts made with
mysterious beings of supernatural power, warlocks
unlock magical effects both subtle and spectacular.
Drawing on the ancient knowledge of beings such as fey
nobles, demons, devils, hags, liches, dragons, celestials,
and things from beyond, warlocks’ piece together
arcane secrets to bolster their own power.
Sworn and Beholden
A warlock is defined by a pact with an otherworldly
being. Sometimes the relationship between warlock and
patron is like that of a cleric and a deity, though the
beings that serve as patrons for warlocks are not gods.
A warlock might lead a cult dedicated to a celestial, a
lich, or an archdevil—beings not typically served by
clerics. More often, though, the arrangement is similar
to that between a master and an apprentice. The
warlock learns and grows in power, at the cost of
occasional services performed on the patron’s behalf.
The magic bestowed on a warlock manifests as to
access to powerful and eldritch abilities. Unlike bookish
wizards, warlocks supplement their magic with some
facility at hand-to-hand combat. They are comfortable
in light armor and know how to use simple weapons.
Delvers into Secrets
Warlocks are driven by an insatiable need for
knowledge and power, which compels them into their
pacts and shapes their lives. This thirst drives warlocks
into their pacts and shapes their later careers as well.
Stories of warlocks binding themselves to fiends are
widely known. But many warlocks serve patrons that
are not fiendish. Sometimes a traveler in the wilds
comes to a heavenly tranquil grove, meets its celestial
master and stumble into a pact without being fully
aware of it. And sometimes, while poring over tomes of
forbidden lore, a brilliant student is opened unto the
and the entities that employ such power.
Once a pact is made, a warlock’s thirst for knowledge
and power cannot be slaked with mere study and
research. No one makes a pact with such a mighty
patron if he or she does not intend to use the power
thus gained. Rather, the vast majority of warlocks spend
their days in active pursuit of their goals, which typically
means some kind of adventuring. Furthermore, the
demands of their patrons drive warlocks toward
adventure.
Design Philosophy
The revised warlock is an attempt to correct several
issues I personally had with the warlock, while also
addressing issues the community had with previous
revisions.
Goal. The warlock in this version primarily is a
damage and debuff focused class.
Core Three Concepts. The reaction to a class feature
Eldritch Blast is mixed. To this end, I refocused to
three core paradigms for this class:
Eldritch Blast. This has been reworked into a feature
similar to the Rogue’s Sneak Attack, however, it is
not as strong (by itself), and is the main source of
damage for warlocks (except blade-locks).
Warlock’s Curse. This is a new feature, and acts as
the main debuff feature.
At-Will Powers. There are no spell slots in this
version of the Warlock. Instead, the Warlock gets to
cast spells at-will, adding back some flexibility. This
version sees more at-will spells.
Invocations. The warlock in 5e has a lot of flexibility,
so weighing the options, I decided to cut most of the
spells and go all in on invocations. With this, some
invocations were still cut, while I added several. The
way invocations progress has also changed.
In short, some choices have been cut down or
simplified, but I hope it makes for a more cohesive
class overall, with the eldritch themes still present.
As always, I appreciate your feedback!
Thanks, WarfrontJack

Constitution modifier per warlock level after 1st
Armor: Light armor

You start with the following equipment, in addition to
the equipment granted by your background:
• (a) a component pouch or (b) an arcane focus
• (a) a scholar’s pack or (b) a dungeoneer’s pack
• Leather armor, any simple weapon, and two
daggers
You have forged a pact with an otherworldly being,
granting you power. Choose one of the following: the
Arcane Pact, the Cursed Pact, the Elemental Pact, the
Infernal Pact, the Fey Pact, the Haywire Pact, the Light
Pact, or the Star Pact, which are detailed at the end of
the class description. Your choice grants you features at
1st level and again at 6th, 10th, and 14th level.
1st-level Warlock feature
Your arcane research and the magic bestowed on you
by your patron have given you facility with spells. See
Spells Rules for the general rules of spellcasting and the
Spells Listing for the warlock spell list.
Cantrips
You know two cantrips of your choice from the warlock
spell list. You learn additional warlock cantrips of your
choice at higher levels, as shown in the Cantrips Known
column of the Warlock table.
Eldritch Blast
As an action, you can create a blast of crackling energy
against a creature within 120ft of you. Make a ranged
spell attack against the target. On a hit, the target takes
damage equal to the damage shown on the Eldritch
Blast column on the Warlock table.
Your Eldritch Blast's damage type is determined by your
chosen Eldritch Pact. If your Pact offers more than one
damage type, you choose one type to use when you
cast your Eldritch Blast.
Warlock’s Curse
As a bonus action, you can place a baleful curse on a
creature that you can see within 60ft of you. Until the
curse ends, or you lose concentration (as if you were
concentrating on a spell), once on each of your turns,
when you hit the cursed creature with an attack, you
deal extra damage as shown on the Warlock’s Curse
column of the Warlock table.
Your Warlock’s Curse damage type is determined by
your chosen Eldritch Pact. If your Pact offers more than
one damage type, you choose one type to use when
you cast your Warlock’s Curse.
You can only have one creature cursed by this feature at
a time. Once you use this feature, you cannot use it
again until you finish a short or long rest, or you roll for
initiative.
A Remove Curse cast on the target ends this curse early.
Spellcasting Ability
Charisma is your spellcasting ability for your warlock
abilities, so you use your Charisma whenever a spell or
ability refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you
use your Charisma modifier when setting the saving
throw DC for a warlock spell or ability you cast and
when making an attack roll with one.
Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your
Charisma modifier
Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your
Charisma modifier
Spellcasting Focus
You can use an arcane focus (see the Adventuring Gear
section) as a spellcasting focus for your warlock spells.
Variant: Core Abilities
Charisma represents the warlock’s capability to
harness magic through force of being. However,
your warlock may harness magic through faith or
wield magic through arcane understanding. As such,
you can replace every instance of charisma with
either wisdom or intelligence.
2nd-level Warlock feature
You gain three eldritch invocations of your choice. Your
invocation options are detailed at the end of the class
description. When you gain certain warlock levels, you
gain additional invocations of your choice, as shown in
the Invocations Known column of the Warlock table.
Additionally, when you gain a level in this class, you can
choose one of the invocations you know and replace it
with another invocation that you could learn at that
level.
3rd-level Warlock feature
Your use of eldritch powers grants you abiding abilities,
allowing you to wield magic easily. Choose one 1st-level
spell from the warlock spell list.
The chosen spell is your abiding spell. Abiding spells can
be cast without using a spell slot and are always cast at
their lowest level. When you gain a level in this class,
you can change any abiding spells you have to another.
You gain another 1st-level spell as an abiding spell at
9th, and 17th level.
At 15th and 18th level, you gain a 2nd-level spell as an
abiding spell.
4th-level Warlock feature
When you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 12th, 16th,
and 19th level, you can increase one ability score of
your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores
of your choice by 1. As normal, you cannot increase an
ability score above 20 using this feature.
Using the optional feats rule, you can forgo taking this
feature to take a feat of your choice instead.
5th-level Warlock feature
Your eyes become imbued with the eldritch power you
wield. You can see normally in darkness, both magical
and nonmagical, to a distance of 120 feet.
At 15th level, you can see the true form of any
shapechanger, or a creature concealed by illusion or
transmutation magic while the creature is within 30 feet
of you and within line of sight.

insight to the devastating powers they may one day
wield.

Your Eldritch Blast becomes a deadly lance. Whenever

attack with your Eldritch Blast against any creature of
your choice within the area.

You have stuck your pact with a powerful entity of the
fey, a creature of legend who holds secrets that were
forgotten before the mortal races were born. This
being's motivations are often inscrutable, and
sometimes whimsical, and might involve a striving for
greater magical power or the settling of age-old
grudges. Such a powerful fey that could employ a
warlock could be Oberron: the Green Lord, Titania:
Queen of the Summer Court, or the Queen of Air and
Darkness.

Your patron teaches you how to wield mind-affecting
magic against your enemies. Whenever you move half
your movement speed or more, you are considered
lightly obscured to all creatures until the start of your
next turn, or until you suffer damage, as natural
phenomena cloud sight of you.
At 14th level, you become heavily obscured instead.
10th-level Fey Pact feature
Your wake causes pain to all who draw near. Anytime

lightning damage.
Furthermore, when a creature is affected by your
Warlock’s Curse, it is charmed by you. While charmed, it

charisma saving throw. On a failure, the target must

no weapons) against a target of your choice. On a
success, or if the target has no way to attack, the target
suffers 2d10 psychic damage.

1st-level Fey Pact feature

Your patron bestows upon you the ability to walk as the

fey do. When you move on your turn, you can squeeze
through a space as narrow as 1 inch wide, appearing as
incorporeal mist, a wisping shadow, or a swarm of
insects.

creatures through cunning use of magic. As a reaction
to one of the following, you can teleport a number of
feet equal to 10 x half your warlock level (rounded
down, minimum 10ft).

You have made a pact with a fiend from the lower
planes of existence, a being whose aims are evil, even if
you strive against those aims. Such beings desire the
corruption or destruction of all things, ultimately
including you. Fiends powerful enough to forge a pact

or Dispater, or former archdevils, such as Moloch.

damage increases by 1d10.
6th-level Infernal Pact feature
You can call on your patron to alter fate in your favor.

can use this feature to add a d10 to your roll. You can
do so after seeing the initial roll but before any of the
roll's effects occur.
Once you use this feature, you cannot use it again until
you finish a short or long rest, or if you reduce a hostile
creature to 0 hit points, instead of gaining the benefits
of Soul Burn, you can regain a use of this ability.

You can choose one damage type when you finish a
short or long rest. You gain resistance to that damage
type until you choose a different one with this feature.
Damage from silvered weapons ignores this resistance.
14th-level Infernal Pact feature
When you hit a creature with an attack, you can use this
feature to instantly transport the target through the
lower planes. The creature disappears and hurtles
through a nightmarish landscape.
At the end of your next turn, the target returns to the
space it previously occupied, or the nearest unoccupied
space. If the target is not a fiend, it takes 10d10 psychic
damage as it reels from its horrific experience.
Once you use this feature, you cannot use it again until
you finish a long rest.

You have made a bargain for power granted by an
entity that is born of machines. Whether it is a shard of
a great machine, or an ancient defected modron, your
patron grants you the power to harness the power of
technology, magical or not.

As a bonus action, you can target a computerized device
or magic item within 60 feet of you. If the device or
item is held or otherwise actively used by a living
creature, that creature must make an Intelligence
saving throw against your spell save DC. On a failed
save, the device or item ceases to function until the end
of your next turn. If the device or item is not held or
used by a creature, the DM makes a special saving
throw for the device with disadvantage and a +0
modifier. Certain shielded devices or items might
negate the disadvantage, at the DM’s determination.
Once you use this feature, you cannot use it again until
you finish a short or long rest, or you roll for initiative.
6th-level Haywire Pact feature
When you hit a creature with Eldritch Blast, you can
choose to not damage in creature, and instead create a
Logic Bomb within their mind. The creature is unaware
a Logic Bomb is placed within their mind.
When you create a Logic Bomb, you mentally describe
that circumstance when the Logic Bomb would end.
When a Logic Bomb ends, Eldritch Blast is cast from the
target’s location at your criteria, using your spell attack
modifier.
For example, you may stipulate that Eldritch Blast is cast
at a named creature when the target carrying the Logic
Bomb is within 30ft of that named creature.
The Eldritch Blast is cast immediately after the
circumstance is met for the first time, whether or not
you want it to.
A creature can only possess one Logic Bomb at a time.
You can only have a number of Logic Bombs in existence
equal to your proficiency modifier. You know when a
Logic Bomb is ended.
10th-level Haywire Pact feature
You have learned to apply the laws of the digital realm
to the material world. As a bonus action, you can cause
a translucent wall of force to spring into existence at a
point you choose within range. The wall appears in any
orientation you choose, as a horizontal or vertical
barrier or at an angle. It can be free floating or resting
on a solid surface. This wall is a 5-foot-by-5-foot panel.
The wall is 1/4 inch thick. It lasts you finish a long rest,
or until you dismiss it (no action required).
Nothing can physically pass through the wall. It is
immune to all damage and cannot be dispelled by dispel
magic. A disintegrate spell destroys the wall instantly,
however. The wall also extends into the Ethereal Plane,
blocking ethereal travel through the wall.
14th-level Haywire Pact feature
You gain the ability to infect a creature’s body with
living circuitry. When you hit a creature with an attack,
the target must make a Constitution saving throw
against your spell save DC as a techno-organic virus
quickly spreads through its body. On a failed save, the
target takes 8d10 psychic or lightning damage (you
choose), or half as much damage on a successful one.
Additionally, if the target fails the saving throw, the
target is stunned until the end of your next turn. Once
you use this feature, you cannot use it again until you
finish a long rest.

every creature within range of the bright sunlight
(including you) to make a Dexterity saving throw. On a
failure, a creature takes your Eldritch Blast damage. On
a success, a creature takes half damage.
Creatures with sensitivity to light have disadvantage on
this saving throw.

itself, forever entangled in the mysteries of stars.

penalty or bonus to its roll. A roll can only be affected
by one fated die.
