{"name":"The Undead","overview":"[quote]\r\nYou've made a pact with a deathless being, a creature that defies the cycle and life and death, forsaking its mortal shell so it might eternally pursue its unfathomable ambitions. For such beings, time and morality are fleeting things, the concerns of those for whom grains of sand still rush through life's hourglass. Having once been mortal themselves, these ancient undead know firsthand the paths of ambition and the routes past the doors of death. They eagerly share this profane knowledge, along with other secrets, with those who work their will among the living.\r\nBeings of this type include the demilich Acererak, the vampire tyrant Kas the Bloody-Handed, the githyanki lich-queen Vlaakith, the dracolich Dragotha, the undead pharaoh Ankhtepot, and the elusive Darklord, Azalin Rex.[\/quote]\r\n","skillproficiences":"","toolproficiences":"","lifestyle":"","languages":"","equipment":"","features":"[h2]Expanded Spell List[\/h2]\r\nThe Undead lets you choose from an expanded list of spells when you learn a warlock spell.

As a bonus action, you transform for 1 minute. You gain the following benefits while transformed:\r\n\r\n[ul]\r\n[li]You gain temporary hit points equal to 1d10 + your warlock level.[\/li]\r\n[li]Once during each of your turns, when you hit a creature with an attack roll, you can force it to make a Wisdom saving throw, and if the saving throw fails, the target is frightened of you until the end of your next turn.[\/li]\r\n[li]You are immune to the frightened condition.[\/li]\r\n[li]You can transform a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.[\/li]\r\n[\/ul]\r\n\r\nThe appearance of your Form of Dread reflects some aspect of your patron. For example, your form could be a shroud of shadows forming the crown and robes of your lich patron, or your body might glow with glyphs from ancient funerary rites and be surrounded by desert winds, suggesting your mummy patron.\r\n\r\n[h2]Grave Touched[\/h2]\r\n6th-level Undead feature\r\nYour patron's powers have a profound effect on your body and magic. You don't need to eat, drink, or breathe.\r\n\r\nIn addition, once during each of your turns, when you hit a creature with an attack roll and roll damage against the creature, you can replace the damage type with necrotic damage. While you are using your Form of Dread, you can roll one additional damage die when determining the necrotic damage the target takes.\r\n\r\n[h2]Necrotic Husk[\/h2]\r\n10th-level Undead feature\r\nYour connection to undeath and necrotic energy now saturates your body. You have resistance to necrotic damage. If you are transformed using your Form of Dread, you instead become immune to necrotic damage.\r\n\r\nIn addition, when you would be reduced to 0 hit points, you can use your reaction to drop to 1 hit point instead and cause your body to erupt with deathly energy. Each creature of your choice that is within 30 feet of you takes necrotic damage equal to 2d10 + your warlock level. You then gain 1 level of exhaustion. Once you use this reaction, you can't do so again until you finish 1d4 long rests.","suggestedcharacteristics":"","traits":"","ideal":"","bond":"","flaw":"","tabledata":"","tags":"Warlock, patreon","isShared":"on","templateId":"24","blockId":"1041272","world":"3e63a766-c8aa-4bf7-8476-8e3299c8b5f8","folder":"13743"}
