Warlock
Base Class: Warlock
In the highest reaches of the White Peaks, where the air is thin and the frost never melts, the line between life and death is as brittle as wind-blown ice. Your patron is a Baneful Remnant—the collective essence of those who died in these mountains, not from the cold itself, but from the betrayal and malice of others.
Centuries ago, a lineage of noble, fox-like spirits was driven from the lowlands by fear and superstition. Forced into the jagged, frozen heights of the White Peaks, they perished in the snow, their hearts curdling with a resentment so potent it defied the natural cycle of passing. They did not become mere ghosts; they became a storm of spite.
As a Warlock of the Baneful Remnant, you have walked into that storm and survived. Whether you were a traveler left for dead in a blizzard or a seeker of forbidden mountain lore, the Remnant saw its own reflection in your struggle. It granted you a pact, weaving its writhing, blood-red fur into your very soul.
You do not just conjure illusions; you project the bitter memories of the fallen. Your magic manifests as freezing mists and phantom doubles that lash out at those who dare strike you. You are the living embodiment of the mountain’s vengeance—a phantom fox stalking the permafrost, turning the spite of the dead into a weapon for the living.

Level 3: Spiteful Illusion

As a Bonus Action, you create a hazy, illusory double. Attacks against you have Disadvantage until the start of your next turn. If a creature misses you while this is active, your malice lashes out; the attacker takes Psychic damage equal to your Charisma modifier.

Level 3: Baneful Remnant Spells

Your patron grants you additional spells that are always prepared for you and do not count against your number of spells known. You gain these spells at the Warlock levels noted in the Baneful Remnant Spells table.

You gain additional prepared spells from your patron at levels 3, 5, 9, 13, and 17.

Class Level  Spells
3rd Bane, Silent Image
5th Mirror Image, Invisibility
9th Bestow Curse, Fear
13th Blight, Ice Storm
17th Dream, Hold Monster

Level 3: Vengeful Step

Your patron grants you the elusive, ghostly movements of the phantom fox. When a creature within 5 feet of you misses you with an attack roll, you can use your Reaction to magically teleport up to 15 feet to an unoccupied space you can see.
If you teleport to a space that is in Dim Light or Darkness, or a space covered in snow or ice, you have Advantage on the first attack roll you make before the end of your next turn.

Level 6: Bitter Malice

When you take damage, you can use your Reaction to unleash a burst of spiraling spite. The attacker takes Psychic damage equal to your Warlock level and must pass a Wisdom Saving Throw against your Spell Save DC or be Frightened of you until the end of its next turn.

Level 10: Ethereal Shroud

Your essence mimics the ghost-like nature of your patron. You gain resistance to Poison and non-magical Bludgeoning, Piercing, and Slashing damage. Additionally, you are immune to the effects of Extreme Cold.

Level 14: Scourge of the Peaks

You manifest a 30-foot aura of malice for 1 minute. Enemies starting their turn there take 4d10 Psychic damage and are Frightened (Wisdom Save halves damage and negates fear). While active, you can move through objects as if they were difficult terrain.
