Warlock
The Overseer
You have made a pact with an all seeing being of the outer planes, an infamous creature whose very name is forbidden from being put to text by almighty coastal wizards, most known for its all seeing eyes, great paranoia, and reality warping dreams. The nature of your pact may be down to madness (yours, its, or both), or working toward some greater plan or scheme that lesser minds cannot hope to delve the brilliance of.
Overseer Expanded Spells
| Spell Level | Spells |
|---|---|
| 1st | [PLACEHOLDER], sleep |
| 2nd | blindness/deafness, see invisibility |
| 3rd | clairvoyance, slow |
| 4th | arcane eye, fabricate, |
| 5th | creation, telekinesis |
Overseer's Gaze
Starting at 1st level, as a bonus action, you can summon a spectral eye in your space or on your body that immediately fires one ray at a creature of your choice within 120 feet of you, rolling on the Eye Ray Effect table below after choosing the target, after which the spectral eye fades away.
Eye Ray Effects
| 1d6 | Effect |
|---|---|
| 1. Fear Ray | The targeted creature must make a Wisdom saving throw or become frightened of you until the start of your next turn. |
| 2. Telekinetic Ray | The target creature must make a Strength saving throw or be moved 10 feet in a direction of your choice. |
| 3. Slowing Ray | The target’s movement speed is halved until the start of your next turn. |
| 4. Petrification Ray | The target must succeed a Constitution saving throw or be affected by the slow spell until the start of your next turn. |
| 5. Enervation Ray | The target must succeed a Constitution saving throw or take 1d8 + your Charisma modifier necrotic damage. |
| 6. Disintegration Ray | The target must succeed a Constitution saving throw or take 1d10 + your Charisma modifier force damage. |
You can do this a number of times equal to your Proficiency bonus, regaining all uses on a long rest.
Lingering Gaze
At 6th level, when you invoke your Overseer's Gaze, the spectral eye lasts for 1 minute before fading away, and you use your bonus action on each of turns to cause it to fire again, rolling on the table anew. Once during the duration of each eye, you can pick the effect it fires instead of rolling. The spectral eye moves with you and is always in your space.
While you have the spectral eye with you, have advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks and can perform the Search action as a bonus action (instead of firing an eye ray).
Patron's Paranoia
Beginning at 10th level, your patrons paranoia affects and benefits you with constant vigilance. You can no longer be surprised, benefit from your normal passive perception even while sleeping, and can add your Charisma modifier to your initiative rolls.
Suppressor's Sight
Starting at 14th level, you can conjure the full power of your patron’s magic suppressing eye. As an action, you manifest a giant spectral eye in your space which creates an antimagic field (as per the spell) in a 150 foot cone until the start of your next turn. This eye does not move from the space it was manifested in.
Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again until you finish a long rest.
Additional Innovations
When you select The Overseer as your otherworldly patron, the following become additional options for your Warlock invocation selections.
Controlled Chaos
Prerequisite: The Overseer subclass
When you roll on the Eye Ray Effects table, you can roll twice and choose between the two effects. If you roll the same value on both dice, you can pick any effect from the table.
Overseer's Sight
Prerequisite: The Overseer subclass, 15th level
You gain truesight with a range of 30 feet. This range is doubled while you have a spectral eye manifested from Lingering Gaze.
