The Witch

You have made a pact with an ancient and forgotten deity, in exchange for worship and servitude they give you the power to curse and aid. Often hiding off in remote locations, witches are regarded with superstition and caution. Recluse by nature, many witches seek the companionship of a familiar to fill the gap that their magick creates between them and society.

Expanded Spell List

The Witch 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.

Great Old One Expanded Spells

Spell Level	Spells
1st	bane, bless
2nd	blindness/deafness, blur
3rd	bestow curse, glyph of warding
4th	arcane eye, private sanctum
5th	planar binding, teleportation circle

Black Book

Starting at 1st level, your deity has bestowed upon you a Black Book. This book contains rituals for nasty and helpful spells. Choose two 1st-level spells that have the ritual tag from any class’s spell list (the two needn’t be from the same list). The spells appear in the book and don’t count against the number of spells you know. With your Black Book in hand, you can cast the chosen spells as rituals. You can’t cast the spells except as rituals, unless you’ve learned them by some other means. You can also cast a warlock spell you know as a ritual if it has the ritual tag. You must have the material components for any spell you cast this way, and the material components get consumed.

On your adventures, you can add other ritual spells to your Black Book. When you find such a spell, you can add it to the book if the spell’s level is equal to or less than half your warlock level (rounded up) and if you can spare the time to transcribe the spell. For each level of the spell, the transcription process takes 2 hours and costs 50 gp for the rare inks needed to inscribe it.

When you gain an invocation through warlock leveling, or when you swap an invocation, you may swap any one ritual for another, provided you take 2 hours and spend 50 gp for the re-transcription process. The ritual you select must be equal to or less than half your warlock level (rounded up).

Jinxes

Starting at 1st level, your patron has granted you special jinxes to combat the effects of their and your enemies. You learn Vicious Mockery and Hideous Laughter. These count as warlock spells for you and do not count against your spells known

Combative Jinx

At 6th level, you learn to jinx your opponent to turn an enemy’s failed strike into good luck for yourself. When a creature makes an attack roll against you, you can use your reaction to impose disadvantage on that roll. If the attack misses you, your next attack roll against the creature has advantage if you make it before the end of your next turn.

Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again until you finish a short or long rest.

Cursebreaker

Starting at 10th level, you are immune to curse spells and curse-like abilities (such as the spell bestow curse and the Mummy Lord's Mummy Rot ability) and have advantage on saves against spells that would change your form. You are also immune to magical curses such as Lycanthropy. In addition, you may cast the augury spell as if it were a warlock spell without expending a spell slot once per short rest.

Coven

At 14th level, you gain the ability to work with other spellcasters to create powerful magical effects. While you are within 30’ of at least two other willing creatures that have the ability to cast spells, you can use your action (the other willing creatures must use their reaction to participate in the Coven) to cast a single spell from the following list without using a spell slot. If the spell requires a saving throw, the DC is equal to your Spell Save DC + the number of spellcasters other than you participating in the spell, up to a max of 5. If the other spellcasters participating in the Coven are also Witches or are Clerics of any Witch deity, you can instead choose any spell on the following list, or any spell of up to 8th level on the Druid or Wizard spell lists. Awaken, Conjure Elemental, Control Weather, Geas, Hallow, Legend Lore, Mass Heal, Resurrection, Scrying, Whirlwind. Once you cast a spell using this feature, you cannot do so again until you finish a long rest.
