Warlock
Base Class: Warlock

She first came to you in your dreams, appearing in shadows as an older woman of great and mystifying beauty.  Likely, you've been seeing her in your dreams since you lost your last baby tooth and give it over to her for some token.  However, it wasn't until you grew near to adulthood that you became aware of those dreams.  She spoke to you, dreams like no other that you've ever experienced, for they are too real to be dreams.  She offered you a taste of her power, great abilities that promised power and wealth beyond imagination.  You were attracted to these promises, and finally gave in to the call of her beautiful voice.  Only then did you see what she really was, as the shadows fell and her utter ugliness was revealed to you.  But you knew it was too late to turn back, even as her power began to bleed into you, as her eldritch energies filled you with the abilities that she promised.  in return, to pay your mother for the power she has granted to you, she only asks for one thing.  Teeth.  Lots of them.  The teeth of your fallen enemies, the teeth of sleeping children, the teeth of those in power, and of those in the lowliest of hovels.

So, you are set out into the world, free to do as you wish with the eldritch power that she has granted to you.  In return, as a simple payment for this power, you have begun to collect teeth for your mother.  It seemed so simple a request, and even seemed a game in the beginning, sneaking into the homes that she guides you to, silent as a shadow.  It didn't seem so dark, kneeling beside the bed of an innocent, sleeping child, your hand sliding beneath their pillow to take their offering and leave behind a simple coin.  It wasn't until the mother came to you, until she greedily took possession of that first tooth of innocence, and  you saw the soul stealing power she leeched out of that tooth.  By then, however, your soul was forever bound to this dark fey creature.

Tooth Fairy

Starting at 1st level, mother bestows upon you the ability to move quietly in order to perform the duties she has given to you.  You are proficient in moving with stealth, and gain an advantage on any stealth checks if someone is sleeping within 60 feet of you.

Once per short rest, you have the ability to cast Silence, though the radius of the spell is only 10' and the center of the sphere will always be you.

You will always be aware of children who are offering their teeth to the mother, and you are compelled to retrieve those teeth while the child is asleep.  You also feel a compulsion to gather other teeth, especially those of your fallen foes, for these are the fuel of mother's power.  Whenever you have teeth, you've been told to keep one as a token and leave the rest in small piles just off the road as you travel.  You know, however, that she will come to you right away should you ever collect an innocence tooth.

Mists of the Fey Wild

Starting at 6th level, mother has given you the ability to enter a house undetected.  You now have the ability to turn invisible and silently teleport up to 15 feet to an unoccupied space you can see, perhaps through a clear glass window or a crack in the door or wall. You remain invisible until you move, cast a spell, or otherwise lose concentration upon the condition.  

When you have used this ability, you can perform it a second time in the next four minutes, perhaps to exit the house into which you have entered.  After those four minutes, you cannot use the ability again until you have taken a short or long rest. 

Tooth Thief

Starting at 10th level, you gain the ability cast Passwall once per short rest.

Wings of the Fey

Beginning at 14th level, mother has gifted you with a touch of the fey wild, causing you to sprout faerie wings that reflect your character (as selected by the DM, of course).  These might be the large, colorful wings of a butterfly, or the dark, leathery wings of a creature of the night, or even the swift, feathered wings of a bird of prey.  These wings, being a condition of the fey magics that cause your blood to tingle, are usually invisible until you wish to use them.  They also can be seen by others any time you become agitated or highly emotional in any way.  Your wingspan, no matter what form the wings take on, is equal to 1 1/2 times your body's height.  They give you a fly speed that is equal to twice your Charisma Ability score.
