Your patron grants you a shining gem; a direct conduit to their immense power. The gem has a number of charges equal to half your warlock level, rounded down. While you are holding or wearing the gem you can cast a warlock spell you know at its lowest level without expending a spell slot, instead expending a number of charges equal to the spell’s level. The gem regains all of its charges when you finish a long rest.
If you lose the gem or it is destroyed, you can perform a 1-hour ceremony to receive a replacement from your patron. This ceremony can be performed during a short or long rest, and it destroys the previous gem. The gem shatters into light when you die.
Invocations
Faceted Focus
Prerequisites: Pact of the Gem feature
Whenever you fail a saving throw made to maintain concentration on a warlock spell, you can expend a charge from your gem to reroll that save, possibly turning it into a success. You cannot use this ability more than once on the same saving throw.
Diamond Exchanger
Prerequisites: Pact of the Gem feature
Whenever you cast a warlock spell with a material component that has a cost, you can substitute gemstones worth at least half the value of the specified components as material for the spell.
Sorcerous Stone
Prerequisites: 5th level, Pact of the Gem feature
You learn one Metamagic option of your choice from the sorcerer class. Whenever the Metamagic specifies that you expend sorcery points, you expend charges from your gem instead.
Crystalline Surge
Prerequisites: 12th level, Pact of the Gem feature
When you use a warlock spell slot to cast a warlock spell, you can expend charges from your gem to increase the spell’s level, one level for each charge expended. The spell slot level cannot exceed that of your highest Mystic Arcanum spell.
You have one use of this feature, which you regain when you finish a long rest.
