Additional spell list
The Pharaoh 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. Also for the material cost for any spell you can use the gold amount instead of the the material but it is always consumed.
Spells for Coins
Whenever you finish a short or long rest you must set out your pyramid mat and offer gold equal to five times the spell level of the spell slot you would regain. If you do not offer the gold you do not receive the spell slot back with your rest.
Additionally if you are unable to pay the amount you can take a loan from the Pharaohs to get you spell slots back. The amount owed has a 50% interest compounding daily.
Coin for Corpses
The main staple of the Pyramid is to turn death into opportunity. As you move up the levels of the pyramid you will gain more gold for the monsters you offer to the great Pharaohs.
Within 1 minute of a creature dying that you aided in the defeat of, you can turn its corpse into coins. The corpse disappears and you receive an amount of gold pieces equal to your warlock level times the creatures CR.
Recruitment
Starting at 6th level, you have raised yourself high enough on the pyramid that you can now start having others work for you. Whenever you convince another creature to become a warlock of the Pyramidic Power, they work under you and you receive part of their efforts.
Once a day you can magically summon a contract with the Pyramid to start below you and attempt convince someone to become a follower. Typically this would require you to roll a persuasion check over your targets insight check plus 10. Your DM can say that certain NPC are immune to this roll.
At the start of every day roll a D12 for each follower that you have enlisted and you gain an amount of gold coins equal to the total. If any of them roll a 1 remove them from your total followers as they fail and are no longer able to continue contributing, weather that is from injury, losing the path, or death.
Golden Sarcophagus
Starting a 10th level the Pyramid considers you to be an investment worth protecting.
As a reaction when you are targeted by an attack or saving throw that would cause you damage, you can turn 100 gold pieces into a Sarcophagus that surrounds your body. Until the start of your next turn your AC increases by 5, you gain resistance to all damage, and if you succeed a saving throw that would take half damage you take no damage instead. You are blind and restrained while in the sarcophagus.
Investors meeting
Starting at 14th level you can use an action to summon a number of your followers equal to your proficiency bonus. Each follower can cast 2 beams of eldritch blast at a target of your choice +5 to hit 1d10 force damage. Before you roll the attack for each beam you can choose on eldritch evocation for each follower to have from the list below. All followers disappear at the end of your turn.
Agonizing blast (+2 to damage)
Eldritch Spear (Range increase from 120ft to 300ft)
Grasp of Hadar (Pull creature 10ft toward you)
Lance of lethargy (Reduce Speed by 10ft)
Repelling blast (Push creature 10ft away from you)
After you use this feature, every follower you summoned no longer has to pay you dues for the recruitment feature and is removed from your followers list.
