Warlock Invocations
Grisly Death
Prerequisite: 9th level
When you reduce a hostile creature with intelligence of 5
or greater to 0 hit points you may force each creature of
your choice within 30 feet of that hostile creature to make a
Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save the creature
becomes frightened of you for 1 minute. The frightened
creature can repeat this saving throw at the end of each of
its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success. If a
creature's saving throw is successful or the effect ends for
it, the creature is immune to this effect for the next 24
hours.
Ooze Form
Prerequisite: 12th level
You may assume the form of a black pudding. The
transformation lasts for 10 minutes or until the ooze drops
to 0 hit points. You gain all the abilities of a black pudding
except for condition immunitities and the ability to split
into multiple puddings. As an ooze you cannot speak or
cast spells. Your gear melds into the ooze and you can't
activate, use, wield, or otherwise benefit from any of your
equipment. After 10 minutes or when the ooze is reduced
to zero hit points you return to your original form. Once you
use this feature you cannot use it again until you finish a
long rest.
Corrupt Magic
Prerequisite: Counterspell
When you use a warlock spell slot to cast counterspell and
are successful in any applicable ability checks instead of
causing the spell to fail you may instead redirect it
choosing targets of your choice, but using the slot level,
spell save DC, Attack bonus, and spellcasting ability of the
original caster. If the spell requires concentration you must
concentrate to maintain it. Once you use this feature you
cannot use it again until you finish a long or short rest.
Subtle Insinuation
Prerequisite: 9th level
If you speak with a non hostile creature for at least 10
minutes you may attempt to reshape that creature's
memories. The creature must have an intelligence of at
least 5 and be able to understand you. At the end of the
conversation the creature must make a Wisdom saving
throw. On a failed save you can affect the target's memory
of an event that it experienced that lasted no more than 10
minutes. You can permanently eliminate all memory of the
event, allow the target to recall the event with perfect
clarity and exacting detail, change its memory of the details
of the event, or create a memory of some other event. A
modified memory doesn't necessarily affect how a creature
behaves, particularly if the memory contradicts the
creature's natural inclinations, alignment, or beliefs.
An illogical modified memory, such as implanting a
memory of how much the creature enjoyed dousing itself in
acid, is dismissed, perhaps as a bad dream. The DM might
deem a modified memory too nonsensical to affect a
creature in a significant manner. If a Remove Curse or
Greater Restoration spell is cast on the target the creature's
true memory will be restored.
If the target succeeds on its saving throw it has no idea
you attempted to influence it. Once you use this feature you
cannot use it again until you finish a long rest.
Clinging Mucus
Prerequisite: 9th level
Once per day, as an action you can generate an ounce of
sticky mucus. This viscous, milky-white substance can form
a permanent adhesive bond between any two objects. One
ounce of the mucus can cover a 1-foot square surface. The
bond takes 1 minute to set. Once it has done so, the bond it
creates can be broken by the application of Universal
Solvent or Oil of Etherealness, a wish spell, or a DC 30
strength check. When the warlock selects this invocation
they also gain the ability to use an action to generate a
corrosive spittle that dissolves the adhesive.
Reach Across the Void
Prerequisite: Scrying
When you cast scry in addition to creating an invisible
sensor you may also create a spectral, floating hand at a
point you choose within 30 feet of the target. The hand
lasts for the Duration or until you dismiss it as an action.
You can use your action to control the hand. You can use
the hand to manipulate an object, open an unlocked door or
container, stow or retrieve an item from an open container,
or pour the contents out of a vial. You can move the hand up
to 30 feet each time you use it. The hand can't Attack,
activate magical items, or carry more than 10 pounds.

Litany of Curses
Prerequisite: Hex
You may cast Hex without expending a spell slot. Once you
use this ability you cannot use it again until you complete a
short or long rest.
