Charismatic Character[edit]
In a fit of laughter, a gnome makes bunny ears on a zombie with a mage hand
A half-elf weaves a subtle magic over the guard in front of the settlement, her words will be well heard in the ears of this soldier
A half-orc laughs, raising a mug high up. He slowly influences the people of this small bar with a subtle dust-like magic that originated from the beer in that very mug
Laughing and love always seemed to follow you, whether you engaged or not. You were what the olden day fellows called the "fey-tongued", a sharp-minded, quick-thinking, and generally likeable person.
The Center of Attention[edit]
Maybe you were a popular kid, maybe an influencer, maybe a marketer, maybe even a charlatan, but you were always likeable.

Magical Expertise[edit]
You found the type of magic you were good with; Protector, Enhancer, and Enchanter. These different types of magic offer new spells and features at levels 6, 10, 14, and 20
Spellcasting[edit]
Your arcane research and the magic bestowed on you by your patron have given you facility with spells.
- Cantrips
You know two cantrips of your choice from the bard spell list. You learn additional warlock cantrips of your choice at higher levels, as shown in the Cantrips Known column of the Warlock table.
- Spell Slots
The Charismatic table shows how many spell slots you have. The table also shows what the level of those slots is; all of your spell slots are the same level. To cast one of your Charismatic spells of 1st level or higher, you must expend a spell slot. You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a short or long rest.
For example, when you are 5th level, you have two 3rd-level spell slots. To cast the 1st-level spell thunderwave, you must spend one of those slots, and you cast it as a 3rd-level spell.
- Spells Known of 1st Level and Higher
At 1st level, you know two 1st-level spells of your choice from the warlock spell list.
The Spells Known column of the Charismatic table shows when you learn more warlock spells of your choice of 1st level and higher. A spell you choose must be of a level no higher than what's shown in the table's Slot Level column for your level. When you reach 6th level, for example, you learn a new warlock spell, which can be 1st, 2nd, or 3rd level.
Additionally, when you gain a level in this class, you can choose one of the warlock spells you know and replace it with another spell from the warlock spell list, which also must be of a level for which you have spell slots.
- Spellcasting Ability
Charisma is your spellcasting ability for your Charismatic spells, so you use your Charisma whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Charisma modifier when setting the saving throw DC for a Charismatic spell you cast and when making an attack roll with one.
Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier
Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier
- Spellcasting Focus
You can use an arcane focus as a spellcasting focus for your spells.
Cunning Words[edit]
Your Charismatic Abilities are enhanced. You gain expertise in one Charisma based skill (ex. Deception, Intimidation, etc)
Tool of the Magical Trade[edit]
Based on your Magical Expertise, you gain a tool that enhances those abilities.
Tool of the Protector
This tool comes in the form of a necklace with a shield on it. It allows the user to gain a spell slot of any level, as long as it is an Abjuration spell. The highest possible level of spell slot creatable is equal to half your Charismatic level rounded down (Maximum of 9, duh). You must complete a short rest before being able to use this again
Tool of the Enchanter
This tool comes in the form of a ring with a pair of eyes on it. It allows the user to gain a spell slot of any level, as long as it is an Enchantment spell. The highest possible level of spell slot creatable is equal to half your Charismatic level rounded down (Maximum of 9, duh). You must complete a short rest before being able to use this again
Tool of the Enhancer
This tool comes in the form of a bracelet with a cross on it (like a Red Cross Symbol).. It allows the user to gain a spell slot of any level, as long as it is a Transmutation spell.

Ability Score Improvement[edit]
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.
Mystic Arcanum[edit]
At 11th level, your patron bestows upon you a magical secret called an arcanum. Choose one 6th-level spell from the warlock spell list as this arcanum.
You can cast your arcanum spell once without expending a spell slot. You must finish a long rest before you can do so again.
At higher levels, you gain more warlock spells of your choice that can be cast in this way: one 7th-level spell at 13th level, one 8th-level spell at 15th level, and one 9th-level spell at 17th level. You regain all uses of your Mystic Arcanum when you finish a long rest.
