New Warlock Subclass: ANCIENT ENTITY

Your patron is a seemingly immortal entity from beyond space and time, godlike if not actually a god, but whose mind and methods are inscrutable to mortals. It may be some primal force, whispering to travelers from the darkness beyond the edges of the Labyrinth’s roads, or some shapeless mass reaching out psychic tendrils from the Void. Many who grasp the power offered do not adhere to any worship or loyalty to these beings. The entity does not seem to care. Its designs and desires are too alien to fathom.

Glimpse of the Unknowable

3rd-Level Ancient Entity Feature

Your mind heavily weighs with the inscrutable presence of your patron. You can roll back the curtain to give those who intrude a glimpse. If a creature contacts your mind telepathically or you must make a save against a spell or ability that would leave you charmed, you can deal 2d10 psychic damage to the creature as a reaction. The creature you damage must succeed on a WIS save against your spell save DC or be incapacitated until the end of your next turn. Once you use this feature once, you can’t use it again until you finish a short or a long rest.

Eldritch Hunger

7th-Level Ancient Entity Feature

When you reduce a hostile creature to 0 HP with your Eldritch Blast feature, you gain temporary HP equal to the damage dealt, up to a maximum of 10. Once you have used this ability once, you cannot use it again until you finish a short or a long rest.

Strange Geometries

11th-Level Arcane Entity Feature

You can tap into the mind-bending realms beyond reality that are known to your patron, warping reality to your choosing. When you use this feature, choose one of the following effects:

• Teleport to any space you can see as a bonus action.

• As a reaction, you alter reality just slightly so you aren’t quite in the position you were just in. If you are hit by an attack that is not a critical hit, it is considered a miss instead.

• If you fall far enough to take falling damage, you instead use your reaction to reach the bottom unharmed.

Once you have used this feature three times, you cannot use it again until you finish a long rest.

The Stars Align

15th-Level Ancient Entity Feature

Once the stars are right, all comes to pass as prophesied. When initiative is rolled, you can choose the order in which you, your allies, and any other creatures (including enemies) act during the combat round. Your chosen order remains until initiative ends. If a new creature enters initiative, you can choose where it appears in initiative order. You don’t get to choose when lair actions or other static, environmental effects happen. Once you have used this feature once, you cannot use it again until you finish a long rest.

New Wizard Subclass: BLUELETTER

Most wizards know and appreciate the power of evocation magic; a few even specialize in it. One particular school, known as Blueletters, for their founder’s predilection to write in blue ink, focus narrowly into harnessing and applying the classic elements. Blueletter wizards (many of whom follow in their founder’s style of scribing spells in blue ink) channel the elements with more power and finesse than others of their kind, and their studies coax basic spells to into new forms increasing their effectiveness and power.

Note: For purposes of the Blueletter subclass, “elemental damage” refers to one of the following damage types: acid, cold, fire, lightning, or thunder. A Blueletter elemental spell is considered any spell that deals one of these types of damage, or has an effect based on the classical four elements of air, earth, fire, or water.

Blueletter Progression

Wizard Level	Features
3rd	Adaptation, Primal Magic
7th	Elemental Substitution
11th	Elemental Prowess
15th	Elemental Primacy

Elemental Adaptation

3rd-Level Blueletter Feature

When you finish a short or long rest, choose one type of elemental damage and gain resistance to it. In addition, if you take a different type of elemental damage than the one you chose, you can use your reaction to change your resistance to that type of damage. The new resistance applies to the damage that triggered the reaction and any further damage you take. Once you can use this feature to change your resistance, you can’t change it again until you finish a long rest. Any resistance that you choose or change to remains until you choose a different resistance with this feature.

Elemental Acumen

3rd-Level Blueletter Feature

You understand the speech of any Elemental, and Elementals can understand your speech, as if you shared a common language. You have advantage on all CHA (Intimidation or Persuasion) checks made toward any Elemental with a CR equal to or less than half your wizard level.

When you make a spell attack that deals elemental damage, add your INT modifier to the damage. If a spell deals elemental damage and does not require an attack roll, count any roll of 1 or 2 as a 3 when determining damage.

Elemental Substitution

7th-Level Blueletter Feature

When casting a spell that deals elemental damage, you can alter its properties to deal a different type of damage. For example, you can cast scorching ray and deal cold damage instead of fire damage. You can do this a number of times equal to your PB, after which you cannot use this feature again until you have finished a long rest.

Elemental Prowess

11th-Level Blueletter Feature

You choose one type of elemental damage when you finish a short or long rest. When you deal damage of that type with your spells or any magic item, you ignore the target creature’s resistance. In addition, Elementals you conjure have at least 75% of the maximum possible hit points for their type.

Elemental Primacy

15th-Level Blueletter Feature

All your elemental damage ignores resistance. Choose one type of elemental damage when you finish a long rest. When you deal damage of that type with your spells or any magic item, you treat immunity to that energy type as resistance. In addition, Elementals you conjure have the maximum hit points possible for their type.
