Warlock: Pact of the Tone
Pact Boon
At third level, your Otherworldly Patron bestows a gift upon you for your loyal service. You can gain the following feature instead of a standard warlock gift.
Pact of the Tone
Your patron has given you a sick ass electric guitar. By playing power chords, you can use this instrument as a Spellcasting focus. The music you play counts as a verbal component for any spells that you cast.
The guitar is stored in an extra-dimensional space and can be summoned into your hands with a bonus action. You can also dismiss it as a free action.
Appearance
Each Pact Boon option produces a special creature or an object that reflects your patron’s Nature and the Pact of the Tome is no different.
A Fiend's guitar may be a Flying V surrounded in Hellfire whereas a Warlock of the Undying may play a Semi-Hollow guitar made of bone.
...Or you can be cliché and play a BC Rich Warlock.
Eldritch Invocations
The following Eldritch Invocations become available to the warlock at level 3.
