Knowledge of the Masters
Starting at 1st level, your patron grants you access to their vast array of knowledge and skills, allowing you to create magical constructs using whatever materials are available to you. Over the course of a minute you can create a small or tiny construct out of nearby materials, and at the end of that process you may imbue the construct with one of three glyphs:
Glyph of Illumination: The construct emits bright light in a 30-foot radius and dim light for another 30 feet.
Glyph of Flight: The construct gains a fly speed of 20 feet.
Glyph of Destruction: As an action the construct can emit a blast of elemental energy, forcing all creatures within a 15-foot cone to succeed on a Dexterity saving throw against your spell save DC or take 3d6 damage of the type chosen when the glyph was imbued (acid, cold, fire, lightning, poison, or thunder).
You can communicate with the construct telepathically to issue commands or receive information from it as a bonus action on your turn. The construct takes its turn in combat immediately after yours and will only take the dodge action unless commanded to do otherwise during your turn.
You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.
Mass Invocations
In addition to growing your own abilities, the old masters also grant you the ability to share your knowledge with others. At the end of a long rest you can choose one of your eldritch invocations to share with your allies, granting its effects to a number of creatures equal to twice your proficiency bonus until the end of your next long rest. Creatures use your spellcasting ability for any spells provided by the invocation.
Construct Mastery
As the knowledge from the old masters begins to become your own your constructs begin to reflect that. You can now infuse constructs you create with up to three glyphs, one of which can be one of the following greater glyphs:
Glyph of the Warrior: The construct now uses the Warrior Construct stat block.
Glyph of the Traveler: The construct now uses the Traveler Construct stat block.
Glyph of the Protector: The construct now uses the Protector Construct stat block.
Magnum Opus
Having learned all you can from the old masters you have now developed your greatest creation: your magnum opus. When you reach 14th level in this class you can choose one of the following options as your magnum opus, at which point you instantly gain that item and become attuned to it:
The Ultimate Weapon: You have created a weapon that can overcome any defense with ease. You can choose any simple or martial weapon as the base for your ultimate weapon, and you can use the ultimate weapon as though you have proficiency with it while wielding it. The ultimate weapon is a +3 magic weapon of the chosen type and ignores all resistances and immunities to the damage it deals. While attuned to the ultimate weapon your Strength and Dexterity scores become 19 if those scores for you are lower than 19.
The Unbreakable Defense: You have created a piece of armor that can protect against any attack. You can choose any set of armor or a shield as the base for your unbreakable defense, and you can wear that armor as though you have proficiency with it. The unbreakable defense is a +3 set of armor of the chosen type, as well as giving a +3 bonus to all saving throws.
The Philosopher's Stone: You have created a magical item containing an infinite reservoir of energy. Once per long rest you may cast any spell of 7th level or lower as though it were a warlock spell without expending a spell slot, and you can ignore all material components for that spell.
Should your magnum opus ever be lost or destroyed it can be magically recreated during a short rest, causing the original to disintegrate in the process.
