If a creature starts its turn within 60ft of Azareck Vaalen or enters within 30ft of Azareck Vaalen for the first time in a turn, and it can see one of Azareck Vaalen's eyes and the creature is conscious, Azareck Vaalen can force the creature to make a Constitution saving throw DC 33. If the creature fails the save by 7 or more, it falls to 0 hit points and starts making Death Saves. Otherwise, if the creature fails, it take 4d8 psychic and necrotic damage. Unless surprised, a creature can avert its gaze to avoid this effect, and is considered blind in regards to interacting with Azareck Vaalen. If the creature looks at Azareck Vaalen in the meantime while within 60ft of him, the creature must immediately make the save. If a creature dies as a result of this trait they turn to dust.

Black Horned Ephialtes. Azareck Vaalen's aura of reality bending magic is more than just terrifying, it is an extension of his magical ability. Once per round, Azareck Vaalen can have his whispers cast spells autonomously. The spell can be of a level equal to the spell Azareck Vaalen last cast this round. Spells cast using this trait use Azareck Vaaleni's spell casting statistics. These spells are not maintained by Azareck Vaalen himself, the whispers can maintain concentration separately from him and whenever it takes damage, the whisper aura must make an individual concentration check using Azareck Vaalen's Con Saving Throw.

Mad Warlock of Yharnam. On the start of every turn, every creature within 60ft of Azareck Vaalen must make a DC 33 Wisdom save or take 2d6 psychic damage and gains a term of short term madness. If the creature succeeds it takes no damage and doesn't gain a trait of short term madness. The creature can repeat the save at the start of each of its turns to remove the madness at disadvantage - if they succeed they can't be affected by the madness for 24 hours but continues to make the save at advantage.

Analytical Mind. Azareck Vaalen starts combat with the spells most suited for the situation he'll be in - it's up for the DM to decide. Furthermore every day he can choose to be immune to 4 spells or effects of his choice. As soon as any creature comes within 120ft of Azareck Vaalen, he is made aware of their resistances, immunises, and vulnerabilities.

Azareck shoots two of the following magical eye rays at random (reroll duplicates), choosing one or two targets within 90 feet of him:

1. Charm Ray. The targeted creature must succeed on a DC 32 Wisdom saving throw or be charmed by Azareck Vaalen for 1 hour, or until Azareck Vaalen harms the creature.

Azareck Vaalen makes two attacks with his Eldritch Strike, or uses a effect specific to one of his artefacts, or he uses his Touch of Death, or use his Soul Drain or he may cast 1 Spell or he may use one of his rechargeable or limited features. Then he can use his Eye Ray feature. In place of his Eye Ray he may activate his Entropic Aegis. At any point during this he can teleport 60ft in any direction.

Azareck Vaalen can continue to use the Touch of Death action on a grappled creature once a turn as a bonus action. If a creature is reduced to 0 hit points by this attack it dies.

Through the Gates of the Silver Key (Recharge 6). Azareck Vaalen harnesses the ancient power of the Old Gods and unleashes the insight of the Far Realms upon his enemies. Azareck Vaalen targets three creatures he can see within 120 feet of it. The targets must succeed on a DC 35 Constitution and Wisdom saving throw. If they fail the Constitution save they take (8d6 + 10) necrotic damage and become corrupted for 1 minute. A corrupted creature’s flesh twists in alien ways. The creature has disadvantage on attack rolls, its speed is reduced by half and if it tries to use any physical effect (such as Combat Superiority, Action Surge, Indomitable, Second Wind, Rage, Reckless Attack, etc.), it must first make a DC 25 ability check fitting for the ability, otherwise the ability fails and it's wasted, if they succeed they take half damage and aren't corrupted. If they fail the Wisdom save they take (8d6 +10) psychic damage and they are corrupted. A corrupted creature has their mind warped and twisted by the primordial; insights that have been forced into their brains. The creature gains a trait of Short and Long Term Madness. If it tries to cast a spell or use any supernatural effect (such as: Divine Smite, Ki, Blood Maledictions, Wildshape, Spell Casting, etc.), it must first succeed on a DC 25 spell casting modifier check or the fitting ability check for the ability, otherwise the effect fails and is wasted, if they succeed on the save they take half damage and aren't corrupted.

On an 11-20, creatures must spend their action and reaction running all of their movement in the opposite direction. On a 1-11, the affected creature must instead attempt to attack the nearest creature it sees, other than Azareck Vaalen or itself. It must use all of it's extra attacks or one one of its damaging Cantrips/Spells (if spells are available). They repeat the save at the end of each of their turns.

On a 5 or 6, the creature takes no action or bonus action and uses all its movement to move in a randomly determined direction. On a 7 or 8, the creature makes a melee attack against a randomly determined creature within its reach or does nothing if it can't make such an attack.

Rend Psyche (Recharge 5-6). Up to three creatures of the Azareck Vaalen's choice within 60ft of him must succeed on a DC 35 Intelligence saving throw or become stunned for 1 minute. A creature can repeat the saving throw as a bonus action or an action on each of its turns, ending the effect on a success. If a creature's saving throw is successful or the effect ends for it, the creature is immune to Azareck Vaalen's Rend Psyche for the next 2 rounds. During that creature's turn, Azareck Vaalen makes its decisions. He can only choose one action/bonus action and not the other. If it does use an action or bonus action, its other action/bonus action must be used to repeat the saving throw. Using an action is done for free by Azareck Vaalen. When the effect ends, the controlled player is stunned for 1 minute and repeats the save at the end of every turn.

Demiurgic Oblivion (1/day). This action cannot be taken if Azareck Vaalen is above 100 hit points and takes his whole action (other than his Teleportation). Exalted beams strike down at Azareck Vaalen’s enemies in retaliation. Each creature of Azareck Vaalen’s choice must make a DC 35 Wisdom saving throw or take force damage equal to their current hit points, or half that much on a successful save. He also instantly regenerates all expended uses of his Warlock spell casting and recharges his Eldritch Corruption and Primordial Truth abilities.

Bolt of Change (Recharge 5–6). Azareck Vaalen fires a beam of destructive energy in a 300-foot line that is 20 feet wide. Each creature in the line must make a DC 35 Dexterity saving throw, taking (22d10) force damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. A creature reduced to 0 hit points by this beam is disintegrated, destroying everything it was wearing or carrying that isn't magical.

Eldritch Corruption (Recharge 6). Azareck Vaalen chooses a creature he can see. They must make a DC 35 Charisma saving throw or take 8d10 psychic damage and be completely controlled by Azareck Vaalen on their next turn. If this ability would reduce a creature’s hit points to zero, it instead reduces their hit points to one and that creature is permanently under Azareck Vaalen's control. This can be removed by a Remove Curse, Greater Restoration, or Wish spell.

Primordial Truth (Recharge 5-6). Azareck Vaalen speaks of the primordial truths of the multiverse. Up to ten creatures that Azareck Vaalen chooses must make a DC 35 Intelligence saving throw or take 18d10 psychic damage and be stunned until the end of their next turn. They take half that much damage on a successful save and are instead charmed until the end of their next turn.

Runes of the Great Ones (Recharge 5-6). Azareck Vaalen weaves runes into the fabric of reality that rend at the sanity of those around him, creatures in a 90 foot radius around Azareck Vaalen must make a DC 35 Wisdom saving throw, taking 7d8 psychic damage and 7d8 force damage and 7d8 radiant damage and are knocked prone and gain a trait of Long Term Madness on a failed save, a creature that succeeds on the saving throw takes half damage and is not knocked prone and is immune to the madness effect for 24 hours

Arcane Nullification (Recharge 5-6). Azareck Vaalen creates a 60-foot cone. Each creature in that area must make a DC 35 Charisma saving throw. On a fail, all magical effects on them and spells they are maintaining through concentration, end, and the creature takes 10d8 force damage.

Mind Blast (Recharge 5–6). Azareck Vaalen magically emits psychic energy in a 90-foot cone. Each creature in that area must make a DC 35 Intelligence saving throw, or take (15d8 + 10) psychic damage and be stunned for 1 minute. A creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.

Occult Supremacy (Recharge 5-6). As a mighty occultsit, Azareck Vaalen has a certain influence over the undead, fiends and abberations. Azareck Vaalen can use an action to target a number of the above creature types equal to his proficiency bonus (9) within 120 feet of himself. If the creature is not under the control of another creature (such as with the Animate Dead spell), Azareck Vaalen must make a Charisma ability check against the creature's Challenge Rating (CR), and if the creature has an Intelligence less than 8 Azareck Vaalen automatically succeeds. However, if the creature is under the control of another creature, Azareck Vaalen must make a Charisma ability check against the controller of the creature's spell save DC or CR (DM's choice). If the creature has an Intelligence of 24 or higher and is not under another creature's control, Azareck Vaalen makes this check at disadvantage. If Azareck Vaalen succeeds, the targeted creatures are permanently under his control. Azareck Vaalen can choose to relinquish control of any creature under his command without requiring an action. 

Boundless Transcendence (Recharge 6). This takes his whole action. All creatures within a 10 mile radius of Azareck Vaalen must make a DC 35 Constitution save or fall prone and be stunned for 1 hour and take 15d6 necrotic or force damage. All targets affected must make a DC 35 Wisdom save or be blinded, deafened, paralyzed and frightened for 1 hour and take 25d6 psychic damage. All affected creatures are overwhelmed by Azareck Vaalen's presence. A creature can repeat the saves on the end of their turn. If a creature's saving throw was successful or the effect ends for it, the creature is immune to this for the next day. 

Summon Servants (1/Day). Once per day, Azareck Vaalen can summon demons/aberrations/undead of chaotic alignment with a combined total of 500 hit points to an unoccupied space, or several unoccupied spaces within 100 feet of him. These servants roll their own initiative and are friendly to Azareck Vaalen and his allies. On future turns, Azareck Vaalen can, as bonus action command the servants to do certain actions, which the servants must do exactly in the way Azareck Vaalen intended.

Turn to Mist (1/Day). Azareck Vaalen assumes a gaseous form for no more than a total of 8 hours, appearing as a writhing mass of grey smoke (the size of which cannot exceed Gargantuan). While in this form, Azareck Vaalen has a flying speed of 300 feet. If air can pass through a space, the smoke form can do so without squeezing. The only actions he can take in this form are the Dash action or to revert to its normal form. If he is in this smoke form for a total of 8 hours, he reverts to its normal form and cannot use this ability until the next dawn.

Dominance Over Life and Death (Recharge 6). Azareck Vaalen has an instinctual ability to manipulate life and death. As an action, he can cause all non-undead corpses within 120 feet of it to become a zombie or skeleton of the appropriate creature sub-type (i.e. a Frost Giant corpse becomes a Frost Giant Zombie) permanently under his control. Alternatively, he can, as an action, cause all creatures within 120 feet of it to make a DC 35 Wisdom saving throw. On a failure, any undead whose CR or level is 15 or less is obliterated, and any undead whose CR or level is 16 or higher takes (18d8) radiant or necrotic damage and is turned; on a success, any creature whose CR or level is 15 or less takes (18d8) radiant or necrotic damage and is turned, and any creature whose CR or level is 16 or higher takes (12d8) radiant or necrotic damage. 

Calamitous Warp (Recharge 6). This takes his whole action. Azareck Vaalen utters incomprehensible words that twists and warps the very sanity of the multiverse. Each creature within 120 feet of Azareck Vaalen must make a DC 35 Charisma saving throw or take (40d6) psychic damage and gain a trait of Indefinite Madness that lasts until the creature is restored through spells like greater restoration. Those who pass take half damage and are immune to the madness effect for 24 hours.

Grand Catastrophe (1/day). This takes his whole action. Azareck Vaalen conjures orbs of magical energy that plummet to the ground at six different points he can see within 1 mile of him. Each creature in a 60-foot-radius sphere centred on each point must make a DC 35 Dexterity saving throw, taking (24d12) force damage on a failed save or half as much damage on a successful one. A creature in the area of more than one arcane burst is affected only once. The area of each arcane burst then acts as an Antimagic Field for 24 hours. Azareck Vaalen and spells he casts are unaffected by these fields.

Spell Reflection (10 per short rest) Azareck Vaalen knocks back any line spell, projectile spell, or a spell that requires an attack roll that's 9th level or lower at the caster, using the same attack roll and damage for the spell. In order to do this, Azareck must be able to see the caster and isn't incapacitated or surprised. Azareck can also choose to divert the spell at another target instead of the caster.

Nullify Causality (10 per short rest). Azareck Vaalen can use a reaction to nullify the use of abilities such as: Channel Divinity, use of Ki, use of Metamagic, use of Wildshape,  Smite, Blood Maledicts etc. Azareck Vaalen makes a contested spell ability check against their primary ability modifier. If Azareck Vaalen wins - the effect is nullified.  

Warp Reality (Recharge 5-6).  Whenever a hostile creature within 120 feet of Azareck Vaalen casts a spell of 9th level or lower, he can use his reaction to roll a d6. On a roll of 5 or 6, the spell fails, expending a spell slot as usual, and Azareck Vaalen copies the effect of the spell, and uses it immediately as he sees fit.

Absorb Life (Costs 3 Actions). Every non-undead creature within a 150-foot radius of Azareck Vaalen must make a DC 35 Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, creatures take (15d6) necrotic damage and have their hit point maximum reduced by that amount until the greater restoration spell or similar magic is cast on them. On success, creatures take half damage and do not have their hit point maximum reduced. Azareck Vaalen regains the amount of necrotic damage dealt as hit points.
