Base Class: Warlock
Your patron is an otherworldly creature the likes of which you've never seen - A gryphon of epic (though sometimes not-so-epic) proportions, with wings that seem to be threaded with the stars themselves. Though this being's motives are initially unclear, her presence brings a comfort unlike any lover, and she seems benevolent and caring. She will often ask to sequester you into her own little pocket dimension for nights of companionship.
Expanded Spell List
The Gryphon lets you choose from an expanded list of spells when you learn a warlock spell. The following spells are added to the warlock spell list for you.

Twilight Zone
Starting at 1st level, your patron asks that you spend time with her during your long rests, protecting you and your allies from harm in exchange. While taking a long rest, you and every allied creature within 10 feet of you is granted the benefits of the Sanctuary spell, the save for which has a DC of 16. In exchange, you are Incapacitated for the duration of the long rest, as your mind is temporarily taken by your patron.
At the end of the long rest, everyone that was granted the benefits of the sanctuary gains 1d6 maximum hitpoints for the next 8 hours, as their minds and bodies are comforted by a strange presence. This increases to 2d6 at level 6, and 3d6 at level 10
Word of the Gryphon
Starting at 6th level, your words are honeyed and enhanced by the Gryphon. Whenever a creature within 30 feet of you attempts an attack roll or a Charisma-based ability check (but before knowing the result), you may use your reaction to speak helpful words enchanted by the voice of your Patron. Doing so adds your Charisma modifier to the attack roll or ability check.
You may do this a number of times equal to your Proficiency bonus, and you regain these uses on a short rest.
Twilight Wings
Starting at 10th level, you may use your Bonus Action to beseech your Patron for power. Wings interwoven with starlight sprout from your back, you are granted 60 feet of fly speed for the next 10 minutes. You also gain resistance to Psychic damage while in this form.
While you're in this form, your Word of the Gryphon feature also grants power to those it effects. If it's used on an attack roll, and the attack hits, it also deals extra psychic damage equal to your Charisma modifier.
You may use this feature once per short rest.
Tantalizing Words
Starting at 14th level, your Patron's powers have grown to the point of stopping creatures in their tracks.
Whenever an attack roll affected by your Word of the Gryphon feature succeeds, you may also force the target to make a wisdom saving throw using your Spell Save DC. You may also provoke this wisdom saving throw when a Charisma-based ability check affected by Word of the Gryphon succeeds. If they fail, the creature is Charmed for the next minute. While charmed, the creature is also paralyzed, as their mind is distracted by otherworldly thoughts of your beautiful patron. This charm effect immediately ends upon the affected creature taking any kind of damage.
