You mentally contact a demigod, the spirit of a long-dead sage, or some other knowledgeable entity from another plane. Contacting this otherworldly intelligence can break your mind. When you cast this spell, make a DC 15 Intelligence saving throw. On a successful save, you can ask the entity up to five questions. You must ask your questions before the spell ends. The DM answers each question with one word, such as “yes,” “no,” “maybe,” “never,” “irrelevant,” or “unclear” (if the entity doesn’t know the answer to the question). If a one-word answer would be misleading, the DM might instead offer a short phrase as an answer.
On a failed save, you take 6d6 Psychic damage and have the Incapacitated condition until you finish a Long Rest. A Greater Restoration spell cast on you ends this effect.

Posted Sep 11, 2024Hey, if they don't like chatting with mortals, then they shouldn't have chosen to be a Patron. I imagine Patrons taken on the job beacuse they are lonely and/or love gossip.

Posted Oct 3, 2024Can't wait to prank call random demi gods and tell them my patron could totally beat them up in a fight and then hang up.

Posted Jan 27, 2025Considering the fact that is says you have to ask questions, don't see that happening. And its not like you can just hang up, its not a concentration spell, so the demi-god would know where you were and could literally blast you from existence.

Posted Jan 28, 2025I struggle with how to use this with my Great Old One Warlock patron. By their very nature, their will is unknowable. It would be like a bacteria getting my phone number and calling me. I don't see how a direct line of communication would work or be beneficial.

Posted Jan 31, 2025I wondered the same thing. I assume a GOO Warlock isn't asking their patron as much as the power from the patron allows them to resolve the answer through brute force. Like tapping into the internet and the answer spits out despite you not knowing where or how to search for the answer. It is enough that the answer exists.
