The Hag

Your patron is an ancient canker on the mortal world, a creature of nightmares and horrific stories told to children late at night. This being is corruption incarnate and its motivations equally so and often involve striving for greater magical power or the settling of age-old grudges. Hags powerful enough to forge a pact might include the head of a large coven or one of the first spawned from the rot of the feywild such as Mama yaga, the council of thirteen or D'shilla the tempest.

Expanded Spell List

The Hag lets you choose from an expanded list of spells when you learn a warlock spell. The following spells are added to the warlock spell list for you.
