Base Class: Warlock
The Enchantress is a warlock subclass granted by Lilithara, the Succubus Patron. Warlocks of this pact wield the seductive and manipulative powers of their patron to charm, beguile, and control others. They exude an Aura of Allure that weakens the will of those nearby, shroud themselves in shadows with the Shroud of Midnight, and peer into the deepest desires or fears of others with Eyes of the Enchantress. At their pinnacle, they can deliver Lilithara’s Kiss, a powerful touch that can either enthrall a target’s mind or paralyze their body.
Type of people who typically form a pact with her
1. Charismatic Manipulators
- Individuals who already possess a natural gift for persuasion and deception. These warlocks may be politicians, con artists, or social climbers who want to amplify their influence over others, using Lilithara’s gifts to bend people to their will without direct confrontation.
2. Ambitious Seducers
- Warlocks who are driven by a desire to dominate social circles, often using their looks and charm as tools. They might be courtesans, performers, or anyone who uses allure to achieve their goals. Lilithara offers them the ability to enchant and manipulate on a supernatural level.
3. Seekers of Forbidden Knowledge
- Some warlocks are drawn to Lilithara by a desire to uncover the hidden and the forbidden. These could be scholars, spies, or those curious about the darker sides of love, desire, and power. They might make a pact with her to learn the secrets of the heart and mind, mastering the art of control.
4. Outcasts and Vengeful Souls
- Those who have been wronged or marginalized may seek Lilithara’s power to exact revenge or gain a sense of belonging. They might use her abilities to rise above their oppressors, turning their charisma into a weapon to gain power and respect.
5. Dark Romantics
- Warlocks who are fascinated by the darker aspects of love and desire, seeing beauty in what others might deem dangerous or corrupt. They might seek a pact with Lilithara out of a desire for an intense, almost addictive connection to her, reveling in the shadowy allure she embodies.
6. Power-Hungry Antiheroes
- Some warlocks are simply driven by the thirst for power, willing to make any deal that grants them an edge. They might view Lilithara as a means to an end, using her seductive gifts to achieve their personal ambitions, regardless of the moral cost.

Bonus Cantrips
At 1st level, you learn the minor illusion and vicious mockery cantrips. They count as warlock cantrips for you, but they don’t count against your number of cantrips known.
Aura of Allure
Starting at 1st level, Lilithara bestows upon you an aura of irresistible allure. This aura extends 10 feet from you in all directions, but not through total cover.
- Charmed Resistance: Creatures of your choice within the aura have disadvantage on saving throws to resist being charmed or frightened by you.
- Seductive Words: You gain proficiency in the Deception and Persuasion skills
Additionally, as an action, you can force a creature within your aura to make a Wisdom saving throw against your spell save DC. On a failed save, the creature is charmed by you until the end of your next turn. You can use this ability a number of times equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum of 1) per long rest.
Shroud of Midnight
At 6th level, you can wrap yourself in a mystical shroud of night, obscuring your form
As a bonus action, you can activate this shroud for 1 minute. While the shroud is active, you are surrounded by swirling shadows that impose disadvantage on attack rolls made against you, and you gain advantage on Dexterity (Stealth) checks.
Once you use this feature, you can’t do so again until you finish a short or long rest.
Eyes of the Enchantresss
Starting at 10th level, you can peer into the souls of others, seeing their deepest desires and fears. As an action, choose a creature you can see within 30 feet of you. You learn the creature’s greatest desire or its greatest fear (your choice).
Manipulation: Once per short or long rest, you can use this knowledge to manipulate the target. Choose one:
- Temptation: The target must make a Wisdom saving throw against your spell save DC. On a failure, it is charmed by you for 1 minute or until it takes damage.
- Dread: The target must make a Wisdom saving throw against your spell save DC. On a failure, it is frightened of you for 1 minute or until it takes damage.
Lilithara's Kiss
At 14th level, Lilithara grants you the power to deliver a magical kiss that enthralls the mind or body. As an action, you can kiss a willing creature, or make a melee spell attack against an unwilling creature within 5 feet of you. On a hit, choose one of the following effects:
- Kiss of Submission: The target must make a Wisdom saving throw against your spell save DC. On a failed save, it is charmed by you for 24 hours, treating you as a trusted friend and ally. During this time, it will do anything you ask, as long as the request isn't obviously harmful to itself.
- Kiss of Lethargy: The target must make a Constitution saving throw against your spell save DC. On a failed save, the target is paralyzed for 1 minute. While paralyzed in this way, the target takes psychic damage equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum of 1) at the start of each of its turns.
Once you use this feature, you can’t do so again until you finish a long rest.
