I am quite new to DnD and just started in a campaign. I really like Warlocks and I especially like the Mother of Sorrows Patron which I'm going for specifically in this campaign.
Since this subclass is poison and sickness based I'm having a bit of a hard time, since there are not a lot of poison/sickness spells that I can profit. Therefore I made two homebrew spells specific for this playthrough. Sadly I think I still can't really fullfil the theme. So I am looking for inspiration. Note: This subclass ignores any resistances AND immunity while dealing poison damage.
At the moment I've made the following two spells:
Infectious Orb: Sending out an orb which infects a creature and is able to spread to another creature if the creature has the poisoned condition. Mother's Blessing: Cleansing allies from any infections, diseases (magical or non-magical) and poisoned condition.
If there are any suggestions or ideas for similar spells (I think the theme is quite clear) let me know! Thanks in advance! c:
Just a fair warning for you a lot of monsters have poison resistance or poison immunity not all but quite a bit
This isn't really an issue in this specific case, because they're talking about using the "Mother of Sorrows" patron, which is a third-party subclass from the Book of Ebon Tides One of this subclass's core features is the ability to ignore resistance and immunity when dealing poison damage.

These two are cantrips, but I made two spells inspired by the League of Legends champion Cassiopeia (her Q and E). I haven't used these yet in my campaign, but I was thinking about adding these spells to bullywugs or other swamp monsters my party might face. These would fit very well into a poison themed warlock as well.
Noxius Burst: An AoE spell that deals minor damage and gives poisoned condition
Toxic Bolt: A single target spell that always crits on poisoned enemies. This might cause some balancing issues if/when there are more potent poisons that just the single round Noxious Burst.

Yes, sorry I should've mentioned that. I'm gonna edit the thread real quick to clear the confusion. Still thank you for letting me know! :D
