Know (5e Subclass)
From D&D Wiki
Know[edit]
Warlock Subclass
Some time ago you herd rumors of wondrous things. Rumors of light beneath the skin of the world, rumors of histories erased from the world, and rumors of an adage spoke by peculiar smiths, "the tools get in the way". These rumors eventually led you to an odd house on an odd road; within the house was a single letter planted on a lone table. This letter meant for you detailed entities next to the gods in power, these entities where called 'Hours', and in the letter it said that with effort, you can kill and usurp one of these beings. On the back was a list of steps for you to follow in your dreams. That night when you went to sleep, you had the most vivid dream of your life, and in that dream you found the old man on the familiar hill. That old man would be the one to lead you through the stag door, and ever seance that first step into The Mansus, you had the taste of immortality on your tongue. A taste you can never forget.
A note for roll play is to chose an aspect from Cultist Simulator and have your character at least partially embody it. For example if your character embodies lantern then make them a visionary or a tortured artist, or if they embody moth have them be unpredictable and a trickster.
