Warlock
Base Class: Warlock

Hearing the mad whispers from a young age, mental stability has never been your strong suit. Without ever experiencing a moment of silence or a restfull night's sleep, your mind has always been teetering at the razor's edge of sanity. In return, the whispers have granted you power. When the lines between reality and a vision from the Abyss often blur, you have developed a keen eye in descerning between the two, making it hard for anyone to fool you with illusions.

While the price is high, the whispers have told of boundless arcane knowledge. Where the patrons of other warlocks see limitations, yours speaks of opportunity and secrets even the oldest of libraries can only dream of. What's the real harm of letting the voices slowly creep deeper and deeper, when such power is the reward?

Instead of an additional spell list, the Eldritch Abyss Warlock gains access to the full Wizard Spell list at the constant risk of insanity. Additionally, you can instinctively Speak, Read and Write Abyssal.

Starting at 1st level, every time you cast a Spell of the 1st level or higher, your Patron attempts to infulence your mind. You lose 1d4 Sanity Points per Level of the cast Spell. Once your Sanity points are fully depleted, you roll on the Insanity table.
