Warlock:

The Ichor
Your patron isn't distant like the patrons of other warlocks,
your patron lives within you. Through some means you've
forged a deal with a living ichor, you act as its host and help it
sustain itself and it in return grants you power. Through you,
your patron tastes, smells, sees, and feels the world as you do
through your senses. Your patron could be a sentient mimic, an
oblex, the blood of a deity, or perhaps an alien entity from the
stars.

Patron Quirks
Due to the rather unique nature of your patron, you are more
aware of its peculiar quirks and its personality. Choose any
number of the quirks listed below, make your own quirks for
them, or you can roll to determine their quirk(s). Work with
your DM to further develop your patrons personality and other
traits.

Ichor Quirks

you to sing to it or play an instrument for it.
Your patron requires a peculiar diet to sustain its

power, as such your appetite is greatly increased.
