### Tri-Elemental Servant

At 1st level, your patrons grant you a keen understanding of the natural world and your place in it, as well as the ability to wield fire, frost, and lightning.  You gain the following benefits.

- You gain proficiency in Nature or Survival (your choice) and add double your proficiency bonus to any checks made using it.

- You can speak, read, and write Primordial and its dialects.

- When you deal damage with a warlock cantrip, you can change the damage type to either  cold, fire, or lightning.
 
- When you cast a spell that deals cold, fire, or lightning damage, you can change the damage type to any of those three types, and you can make that spell ignore resistance to damage and treat immunity as resistance.  Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a short or long rest.

### Avian Emulation
Beginning at 6th level, you can take on the traits of your patrons.  Whenever you finish a  long rest, choose one of the following benefits. It lasts until you finish a long
rest.

***Valor.*** The Flame Bird is associated with bravery.  You gain resistance to fire damage and have advantage on saving throws against being frightened.

***Mystic.*** The Frost Bird is associated with mysticism.  You gain resistance to cold damage and have advantage on saving throws against charmed.

***Instinct.*** The Lightning Bird is associated with quick action.  You gain resistance to lightning damage and your speed increases by 5 feet.

### Heart of Fire, Frost, and Lightning
At 10th level, you can  adopt an elemental form to both protect yourself and smite your enemies. As a reaction when you are hit by an attack, you can halve the damage.  In addition, each creature of your choice within 30 feet of you takes cold, fire, or lightning damage (your choice) equal to half your warlock level + your Charisma modifier.

Once you use this feature, you must finish a short or long rest before you can use it again.

### Guardian of the Sea
Starting at 14th level, you can channel the power of the greatest of the legendary birds.  You can use an action to gain the following benefits for 1 minute.

- You gain a flying speed of 40 feet and a swimming speed of 40 feet and can breathe water.
 
 - You gain the benefits of all three Avian Emulation traits.
 
 - While this feature is activated, you can use an action and expend a 5th level or higher spell slot to unleash an Aeroblast.  An Aeroblast is an awesome beam of energy in a line 100 feet long and 5 feet wide emanating from you.  You can move this line up to 180 degrees, allowing you to hit many targets, although a creature can take damage from the beam only once.  Creatures in the line must make a Constitution saving throw against your spell DC.  They take 8d6 force damage on a failure, or half on a success.  The damage increases by 1d6 per slot level above 5th.

Once you use this feature, you must wait until you finish a long rest before you can use it again.

##### New Eldritch Invocations

**Elemental Channeler**

Prerequisite: Pact of the Chain feature

As an action, your familiar can become a conduit of elemental power.  If it does so, the next time before the end of its next turn you cast a spell that deals cold, fire, or lightning damage, you can reroll a single damage die.  You must take the result of the new die.  Starting at 11th level, you can reroll two dice.

**Elemental Rebuke of the Talisman**

Prerequisite: Pact of the Talisman feature

When the wearer of your talisman is hit by an attacker you can see within 30 feet of you, you can use your reaction to deal cold, fire, or lightning damage to the attacker equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum of 1 damage) and push it up to 10 feet away from the talisman’s wearer. This damage ignores resistance and treats immunity as resistance.  Each time this feature is activated, choose which type of damage it deals.

**Tri-Elemental Blade**

Prerequisite: 12th level, Pact of the Blade feature

When you hit a creature with your pact weapon, the creature takes extra cold, fire, or lightning damage equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum 1).

**Weather Report**

As an action, you can write in your Book of Shadows the name of a place. On your next turn, you receive written in your Book a highly detailed and accurate description of the weather there over the next week.
