Tentacles of the Entity

Summon tentacles of various types from beyond the planes through your bond with the Entity. The Entity is a mysterious being that very very few know about. Some think it is the Great Old One some Warlocks form a pact with, others believe it is of a different nature or from even further away. All that is known is that it waits in the place the tentacles come from. Perhaps they are Its spawn, perhaps they are all small pieces of It. Whatever It be, the most troubling is that none know Its intentions.

Tentacle Summoning

Starting level 1, you can summon tentacle creatures from beyond the planes to aid you in combat or for anything else you may wish.

You have a number of Tentacle Summoning Points, or TSP, equal to you level as shown in the Tentacle Summoner table above. You can use these points to summon tentacles of various abilities. Some of your own abilities also require the use of TSPs. You regain all of your TSP after finishing a Long Rest.

As an action, you can spend a number of TSP to summon a tentacle creature, the amount of TSP spent is determined by the color, size, and abilities of the tentacle creature you choose to summon. It appears in an unoccupied space of your choice within 30 feet of you. The tentacle creature acts on its own initiative count. Any tentacle you summon remains for as long as you desire or until it is reduced to 0HP, in which case it turns to mist and disappears. Should you fall unconscious, the tentacle creatures that might still be summoned will attempt to protect you and carry you to safety if possible. You may also dismiss a summoned tentacle creature as a bonus action. You can only summon tentacles up your maximum tentacle summon capability shown according to your level in the above table. Should you die, all currently summoned tentacles lose their bond to your and become feral, acting on animalistic instinct of fight, flight, fu-uuh, freeze.

You can communicate telepathically with tentacle creatures you summon and are able to use a bonus action to command their actions in battle. As the tentacles have no innate language, you must communicate via simple images. They can send images back, often communicating via rather... suggestive... images.

Whenever a tentacle creature you summoned would add its proficiency modifier to a roll it makes, it can add your proficiency modifier instead.

The damage your summoned tentacle creatures deal with their tentacle attacks increase to 2 dice when you reach 4th level, 3 when you reach 8th level, 4 at level 14, and 5 at level 18.

Size Matters

When you choose to summon a tentacle creature, the amount of TSP you must spend to summon it is dependent on the size of the tentacle you wish to summon. It costs 1 TSP to summon a small tentacle creature, 2 TSP for a medium one, 3TSP for it to be large.

Please refer to the "Tentacle Types" section for further detail of their abilities.

Color and Style

When you summon a tentacle creature, you can choose the color it appears as. The color you choose determines different aspects of the creature, and each color has a different list of abilities with which they can be upgraded to have. When you summon the tentacle, you can spend an amount of TSP to give the tentacle the abilities listed in its description. A tentacle gains the abilities of the tier you paid TSP for and all abilities of tiers below that.

    The list of Tentacle Types you can choose from to summon is at the end of the page.

Cantrips

At level 2, you are given knowledge of any 2 Cantrips from this list : mage hand, true strike, minor illusion, prestidigitation, and shocking grasp.

You learn an additional cantrip at level 10.

Spellcasting

At level 2, you begin to gain some ability to cast spells.

Your spellcasting is not learned or innate or from a mutually agreed upon pact, it is forced upon you by the Entity.

You gain instinctive knowledge of certain spells and have a certain amount of spell slots to cast them with. Any time you would gain a new spell, you may switch one of your known spells.

See at the end of the page for your spell list. You may choose your spells from that list. You must have a spell slot of the corresponding spell level to learn a spell.

Charisma is your spellcasting ability for these spells.

Your Spell save DC is 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier

Your Spell attack bonus is Your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier

Cuddle

At level 3, you can spend some time with one or multiple tentacles you have summoned during a Short or Long Rest to gain some mutual benefits.

When completing a short or long rest with one or several of your summoned tentacles, you all gain temporary Hit Points equal to your level + your Charisma modifier.

Archetype

At level 3, you may choose your Archetype as a Tentacle Summoner from the list below. This gives you new abilities at levels 3, 7, 12, 15, 19

Ability Score Increase

When you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 12th, 16th and 19th level, you can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, you can't increase an ability score above 20 using this feature.

The Means of Obedience

Tentacle Types

Appearance and Perception

Tentacle creatures are exactly that : a mass of squirming tentacles all bound together at its centre like some strange plant. They have no mouth to feed, instead they seem to constantly slowly absorb some form of energy (it is unknown what that energy may be or where it comes from) and do not produce waste.

Because of their body, tentacle creatures cannot wear clothes, equip armor or wield weapons or shields, or anything which would require hands. They can however wear magical rings, bracelets or even neck chains/pendants. As usual, your tentacle creatures can attune to a maximum of 3 magical objects.

Tentacle creatures have sensitive senses of hearing (120ft), smell (120ft), touch/taste which is the same thing to them, and perceive the electromagnetic field all life emits. This gives them blindsight up to a 20ft range.

Having no eyes also makes them immune to spells that target eyesight such as blindness.

Tentacles breathe through the pores of their skin/membrane, even though they have no mouths to speak of, they do require air to breathe, although they can hold their breath for up to 10 minutes.

Tentacle Creatures are considered Aberrations.

Abilities

Unless specified otherwise, all tentacles summoned have abilities scores of 10. They are size small (unless you spend TSP to summon them larger), have an AC of 15, a move speed of 15 feet, and have hit points equal to their Constitution + your level + (its Constitution modifier)x(your level).

A tentacle creature can attack with a tentacle attack. This is a finesse weapon they are considered proficient with that deals 1d6 bludgeoning damage. A tentacle's proficiency modifier is equal to your own.

Small tentacle creatures have advantage on Stealth checks.

Size Matters

When you choose to summon a tentacle creature, the amount of TSP you must spend to summon it is dependent on the size of the tentacle you wish to summon. It costs 1 TSP to summon a small tentacle creature.

If you spend 2 TSP, you can summon the tentacle creature as a medium sized creature. This changes some of its abilities from base: -the damage of its tentacle attack deals d8 bludgeoning damage instead of d6 -it is summoned with extra Hit Points equal to your level -its movement speed is 25 feet -its AC is equal to 13 -it no longer has advantage on Stealth checks

If you spend 3 TSP, you can summon the tentacle creature as a large sized creature. This changes some of its abilities: -the damage of its tentacle attack deals d10 bludgeoning damage instead of d6 -it is summoned with extra Hit Points equal to twice your level -its movement speed becomes 35 feet -its AC is equal to 11 -it now has disadvantage on Stealth checks -it gains 5ft reach

Types & Styles

There are several different types of tentacles. They can easily be classed according to general skin-membrane color.

When you summon a tentacle creature, you can choose the color it appears as. The color you choose determines different aspects of the creature, and each color has a different list of abilities with which they can be upgraded to have. When you summon the tentacle, you can spend an amount of TSP to give the tentacle the abilities listed in its description. A tentacle gains the abilities of the tier you paid TSP for and all abilities of tiers below that.

Note that there is no restriction on tentacle type in the limit of tentacles you can have summoned at any given time. This means at level 14 you may have up to a maximum of 5 tentacles of any type summoned.

Some tentacles can cast spells. All spells cast by your tentacle creatures are cast at their base level.
