  • Demon: Your skin has hellish resilience. When you take Damage, you take -2 Damage. You take at least 1 Damage.

  • Fairy: Your mind is immune to magical trickery. You are Immune to the Spells Charm, Hilarity, Illusion, Phantasm, and Sleep.
  • Giant: You may occasionally grow in size and strength. For 1 minute, you may double in size, gaining Advantage on Skill Checks relating to physical strength and gaining Advantage on Damage rolls. Once you have used this Ability, you must finish a Short Rest before you may use it again.

At 8th Level, you gain 1 additional Spell Point.


At 9th Level, your patron aids your combat further. Twice per Round and on your Turn, you may attempt a single Weapon Attack as a Free Action.


At 10th Level, you have become a devout follower of your patron. Your patron offers you a choice; you may either construct an Altar to be used by yourself and other Pact-Keepers or become a Vessel of your patron. Details for both options are below.

  • Altar: You are sought out by 1d6 + 10 1st Level Pact-Keepers who follow your same patron. They will build the Altar in a valid location over the course of 25 days. Once completed, you will lead rituals at this Altar and these Pact-Keepers will follow your commands, as long as they do not violate your patron. Once up and running, you may perform ritual sacrifices at the Altar, with each ritual being considered a standard Downtime activity. Your patron blesses you with a certain benefit depending on the type of sacrifice performed:
    • Blood Sacrifice: You may decrease your Maximum HP by 10 for 24 hours. For the same amount of time, your Maximum Spell Points are increased by 5.
    • Human Sacrifice: If you ritualistically kill a sentient creature, you gain 6d6 Gold.
    • Sacrificial Tithe: For every 1 Gold of value sacrificed, you may fully Heal yourself or a nearby target.
  • Vessel: You may occasionally become a Vessel for your patron. As an Action, you may begin to channel your patron. For the next minute, you take -5 Damage (you take at least 1 Damage), you deal +5 Damage, and you provide +5 Healing. Additionally, you cannot die during this time. You can still be reduced to 0 HP, but you will remain alive and continue to fight. If you are still at 0 HP when the minute ends, you will then die as normal. Once you have used this ability, you must finish 5 Long Rests before you may use it again.
