So, I'm trying to make a warlock subclass, the premise is a chaos spirit, not like a fey, more like the greek god Dionysus. I'm having trouble with it since it's my first homebrew, but so far I have two features, one at level 3 and one at level 5. The level 3 one grants resistance to bludgeoning damage and the level 5 lets you give someone the poisoned affect. Does anyone know a bit more about warlocks? Any help or feedback would be really appreciated
idk if this would be helpful, but possibly look at the Dionysus Boons from Hades for possible power ideas! Most of it is "Hangover" (damage over time, so poison, as you said), as well as damage resistance and slowing enemies. Maybe some sort of upgrade on charm person or friends, as well as illusion spells (since they'd be a chaos spirit). If you haven't already, looking at how official patrons are designed helps (i did this when making and trying to balance my "Follower of Hypnos" homebrew!). I hope this helps!

Thanks for the feedback. I do have a theme, but it would take a while to explain
