Matron of Ravens

Your patron is the Raven Queen, a mysterious being who rules the Shadowfell from a palace of ice deep within that dread realm. The Raven Queen watches over the world, anticipating each creature’s death and ensuring that it meets its end at the proscribed time and place. As the ruler of the Shadowfell, she dwells in a decayed, dark reflection of the world. Her ability to reach into the world is limited. Thus, she turns to mortal warlocks to serve her will. Warlocks sworn to the Raven Queen receive visions and whispers from her in their dreams, sending them on quests and warning them of impending dangers.

The Raven Queen’s followers are expected to serve her will in the world. She concerns herself with ensuring that those fated to die pass from the world as expected, and bids her agents to defeat those who seek to cheat death through undeath or other imitations of immortality. She hates intelligent undead and expects her followers to strike them down, whereas mindless undead such as skeletons and zombies are little more than stumbling automatons in her eyes.

Raven Companion

Starting at 1st level, you gain the service of a spirit sent by the Raven Queen to watch over you. The spirit assumes the form and game statistics of a raven, and it always obeys your commands, which you can give telepathically while it is within 100 feet of you.

While the raven is perched on your shoulder, you gain darkvision with a range of 30 feet and a bonus to your passive Wisdom (Perception) score and to Wisdom (Perception) checks. The bonus equals your Charisma modifier. While perched on your shoulder, the raven can’t be targeted by any attack or other harmful effect; only you can cast spells on it; it can’t take damage; and it is incapacitated.

You can see through the raven’s eyes and hear what it hears while it is within 100 feet of you.

In combat, you roll initiative for the raven and control how it acts. If it is slain by a creature, you gain advantage on all attack rolls against the killer for the next 24 hours.

The raven doesn’t require sleep. While it is within 100 feet of you, it can awaken you from sleep as a bonus action.

The raven vanishes when it dies, if you die, or if the two of you are separated by more than 5 miles.

At the end of a short or long rest, you can call the raven back to you—no matter where it is or whether it died—and it reappears within 5 feet of you.

Matron's Wrath

As an action, you invoke the power of the Raven Queen. Each undead that can see or hear you within 30 feet of you must make a Wisdom saving throw.

When an undead fails its saving throw, the creature is instantly destroyed if its challenge rating is at or below a certain threshold, as shown in the Destroy Undead table.

If the creature is above the CR listed above and fails their saving throw they are turned.

A turned creature must spend its turns trying to move as far away from you as it can, and it can’t willingly move to a space within 30 feet of you. It also can’t take reactions. For its action, it can use only the Dash action or try to escape from an effect that prevents it from moving. If there’s nowhere to move, the creature can use the Dodge action.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum of once). You regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

The Queen's Protection

At 10th level, the Raven Queen grants you a protective blessing. You gain advantage on death saving throws. Additionally you and any friendly creatures within ten feet of you gain immunity to the frightened condition, and resistance to necrotic damage.

Token of the Raven

As an action, you can magically transform your body for 10 minutes. You can gain the following benefits, the effects of which last until the transformation ends:

• You can see any invisible creature within 60 feet of you, provided it isn’t behind total cover. 
• Black feathered wings sprout from your back. You gain a flying speed equal to your walking speed, and you can hover.
• You choose one creature you can see within 30 feet of you, cursing it until the end of your next turn. You and allies of your choice within 60 feet gain advantage on attack rolls against that target until the end of your next turn. This can only happen once during your transformation

Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again until you finish a long rest.
