Otherwordly Patron
The Lore Seeker
Some patrons want souls, some death, some life. Those who are Lore Seekers are absent from such petty mortal conflicts, and instead wish for information. The Lore Seeker often does not care whom it sides with, only that it gains knowledge from the experience, and grants power to obtain such information. Noone knows how long the Lore Seeker has existed, only that it knows all that has happened, and will know all that will happen. Warlocks of the Lore Seeker look to not only obtain and relay information to their patron, but additionally to protect that information, often lending them to be neutral in most conflicts.

The words within describe the creature in full detail; their appearance, thoughts, desires, motives, etc. You can use an action speak to the book and ask it about what exactly you wish to know, and at your DM's decision, the creature will give you a true answer or take 1d10 psychic damage.
