In an exchange for great power your patron has one simple request for you... dog sitting. You must take yoyr patrons pup (magical/monsterous/ or just a regular ass dog) on the longest walk ever.
hnnnng I have so much work to do and have done none of it and instead made homebrew for a warlock patron cause I know how to prioritise
anyway IDK how to balance anything ‘cause I’m a noob and this is the first thing I’ve ever tried to homebrew, and I don’t trust reddit to look over my stuff and be not a dick about it, but I trust tumblr marginally more. So if anyone would be down to do that lemme know, I’d greatly appreciate it :)
first draft is below the cut! (again sorry if it’s kind weird/very not balanced, idk what I’m doing my dude)
Aver'Bayzella is an ancient being, hidden away in her timeless realm. Is she fey, fiend, great old one, or a mix of them all? No one truly knows, and it matters not. For all that matters now is beauty, and adding that beauty to Aver'Bayzella's ever expanding collection.
*edited to include balance Crit from other places
Aver'Bayzella - The Collector of Beautiful Things - NE
Aver'Bayzella can't stand the dirty and disgusting material plain, but loves the few, rare, truly beautiful things that exist in it. Your job is to seek out and bring those beautiful things to her. Whether they are objects, buildings, plants, songs, creatures, people, places, etc if she wants it you will provide. Remember that beauty is the goal, not necessarily wealth. Though these things often coincide, they are not one in the same.
Upon your death or should you fail her one too many times, what's left of your body and spirit will also be added to her collection.
Expanded Spell List
1 level - Tensers Floating Disk, Identify
2 level - Locate Object, Gift of Gab
3 level - Clairvoyance, Blink, Incite Greed
4 level - Dominate Beast , Stone Shape
5 level - Creation, Dominate Person
Level 1 - Beautiful Servant
Upon taking this pact you become Aver'Bayzella's property, and all things Aver'Bayzella owns must be beautiful. She has mercifully and graciously scrubbed all of your physical flaws away, making you the most perfect version of yourself and granted you a connection to her realm.
Your new beauty is captivating and eternal. You may gain advantage on persuasion, deception, and performance checks, as well as any checks that would be bolstered by your physically beautiful being 3 times per long rest.
Your physical form is ageless through your connection to Aver'Bayzella's timeless realm. You are stuck at the age she set for you upon making your pact. Though you are still mortal in every other way, you cannot die of old age.
Level 6 - Creator of Beauty
Having proven your eye for the beautiful, Aver'Bayzella has decided to expand the ways you can serve her by training you to making beautiful things for her.
You are taught two artisans tool proficiencies from the following list: Calligraphy, Carpentry, Cobbler, Cook, Glassblower, Jeweler, Mason, Painter, Potter, Smith, Weaver, and Woodcarver.
With an action you are able to summon any of the tools from the list above that you are proficient in. These tools appear in a spectral form and will disappear when not in use.
As well, 2 times per long rest, you can instantly manifest a temporary object that you could make with your tool proficiencies from the list above. This item may be no larger than 5 ft in any dimension. The object lasts for 2d20 hours as rolled at creation. It is solid/real, non-magical but appear obviously magical in nature, and cannot be used as a spell component.
If the character has or attains additional tool proficiencies from the list above through other means, they can use these abilities with them as well.
Level 10 - Beautiful Veil
As property of Aver'Bayzella, you are a valued and beautiful creature. Those who would seek to harm beauty must be punished. A protective veil now shrouds you, which you may call upon 1 time per short or long rest.
When you are hit with and attack from an attacker, you may use your reaction to call upon the veil for protection, negating all damage from the attack. You may pick one form of retribution from the following:
Behold Beauty- Your attacker and all those in a 10ft cube centered on you must make a constitution saving throw against your spell save DC, or is blinded for a maximum of 1 minute with consecutive con saves each round.
Worship Beauty- Charm Person is cast on your attacker.
Poisonous Beauty - Starting on their turn, your attacker must make a con save against your warlock spell save DC at the start of each of their turns or takes half your warlock level (rounded down) in poison damage, and half of that on a successful save. After 3 successful saves the poison subsides.
Level 14 - Judgement of Beauty
Aver'Bayzella now trusts your eye for beauty enough to help her bring judgement to the beautiful and the ugly. Once per long rest you can use your action to send one creature of your choice to Aver'Bayzella realm to be judged by her. She will reveal her judgement to you on your next turn. Her judgement is decided by the DM.
Beautiful - Those she deems beautiful she will keep in her domain.
Normal - Those she rejects will be sent back to their previous position or the nearest unoccupied square and take 10d10 psychic damage from the encounter.
Disgusting - Those she deems disgusting she will yeet back with particularly nasty force, and they will instead take 10d20 force damage.
