Otherworldly Patron: Primordial
\pagebreak The Primordials were the first denizens of the world, immense elemental titans that moulded the early world. Nowadays, many of these titans have had their bodies scattered, used as the foundation for the material world. But death does not mean the same to a being of titanic power as it would to a mortal man, and the essences of these ancient beings can still make bargains with mortals who seek power, for a price. You choose your patron's element or determine it randomly, using the Primordial Element table. This determines the damage type affected by other features later in this subclass. ##### Primordial Element | D4 | Primordial Element | Damage Types | |:----------------|:-------:|:----------------:| | 1 | Air | Lightning, Thunder| | 2 | Earth | Bludgeoning, Piercing, Slashing| | 3 | Fire | Fire| | 4 | Water | Acid, Cold| ### Expanded Spell List ***1st-level Primordial feature*** The Primordial lets you choose from an expanded list of spells when you learn a warlock spell. The Primordial Expanded Spells table shows the primordial spells that are added to the warlock spell list for you, along with the spells associated in the table with your patron's element: air, earth, fire, or water. ##### Primordial Expanded Spells | Spell Level | Primordial Spells | Air Spells | Earth Spells |Fire Spells|Water Spells| |:----------------|:-------:|:----------------:|:-------:|:-------:|:-------:| | 1st | Chromatic Orb | Thunder Punch

are spells created by KibblesTasty, and will be included at the end of this document. ### Ancient Tongue ***1st-level Primordial feature*** You can speak, read, and write Primordial. ### Primordial Companion ***1st-level Primordial feature*** Your patron has bequeathed a piece of its own essence, allowing you to physically manifest it as a Primordial Companion. It's friendly to you and your companions, and it obeys your commands. See its game statistics in the Primordial Companion stat block, which uses your proficiency bonus (PB) in several places. You determine the creature's appearance and whether it has two legs or four; your choice has no effect on its game statistics. Several of its features are determined by the Primordial Element of your patron, detailed in its stat block. In combat, the Primordial Companion shares your initiative count, but it takes its turn immediately after yours. It can move and use its reaction on its own, but the only action it takes on its turn is the Dodge action, unless you take a bonus action on your turn to command it to take another action. That action can be one in its stat block or some other action. If you are incapacitated, the Primordial Companion can take any action of its choice, not just Dodge. If the Elemental takes damage that it is immune or resistant to due to your Primordial Element, it regains 1d6 hit points. If it has died within the last hour, you can use an action to revive it, provided you are within 5 feet of it and you expend a spell slot of 1st level or higher. The Primordial Companion returns to life after 1 minute with all its hit points restored. In addition, if you choose the Pact of the Chain at 3rd-level, you do not learn *Find Familiar.* Instead, your Primordial Companion is treated as a familiar for the purpose of Pact of the Chain, and counts as a familiar for the purposes of Eldritch Invocations. ### Primordial Burst ***6th-level Primordial feature*** Your Primordial Companion may now use its *Primordial Burst* action. ### Enhanced Companion ***6th-level Primordial feature*** Your Primordial Companion can attack twice, rather than once, whenever it takes the Attack action on its turn. Its attacks are now considered magical. In addition, when you cast a spell that has a casting time of 1 action, you can choose to have it originate from your Primordial Companion. ### Companion's Growth ***10th-level Primordial feature*** You gain 6 points to distribute as increases to your Primordial Companion's ability scores. You can increase one ability score by a maximum of +4, up to a maximum of 20. * If you increase its Strength enough to increase the ability score modifier, add the increase to the Primordial Companion's attack and damage rolls. * If you increase its Dexterity enough to increase the ability score modifier, add the increase to the Primordial Companion's Armour Class. * If you increase its Constitution enough to increase the ability score modifier, add the increase to the Primordial Companion's Hit Points, 1 per your Warlock level. \pagebreak ### Titan's Union ***14th-level Primordial feature*** As a bonus action on your turn, you can choose to merge with your Primordial Companion. While merged with your Primordial Companion, you are counted as a single creature, and you gain the following benefits: * You use your Primordial Companion's Strength, Dexterity, Constitution scores, and size in place of your own. * You can use any actions, reactions, and traits that your Primordial Companion has available. * You use either your Armour Class or your Primordial Companion's, whichever is higher, and add your Charisma modifier to the total. * You gain any damage resistances, damage immunities, and condition immunities, and additional movement speed that your Primordial Companion has. * When you take damage, you deduct hit points from your Primordial Companion instead of yourself. You remain merged with your Primordial Companion for 1 minute, or until the Primordial Companion's hit points are reduced to 0, at which point it is destroyed and any excess damage carries over to you. Once you have used this feature, you cannot do so again until you finish a long rest. ## Additional Eldritch Invocations ### Colossal Companion ***Prerequisite**: Primordial Otherworldly Patron, 5th-level* Your Primordial Companion's size increases to Large, granting it the following benefits: * Its weapon attacks deal an additional 1d4 damage on a hit. * Its weight multiplies by eight. * It has advantage on any Strength checks and Strength saving throws. ### Death Throes ***Prerequisite**: Primordial Otherworldly Patron, 9th-level* When your Primordial Companion falls to 0 hit points, you can choose to have it explode. Each creature of your choice within 10 feet of your Primordial Companion must make a Dexterity Saving Throw against your Spell Save DC or take a number of d6s of your Primordial Element's damage type equal to your Proficiency Bonus, half on a success. ### Defensive Companion ***Prerequisite**: Primordial Otherworldly Patron* If your Primordial Companion is within 30 feet of you or an allied creature when you would be the subject of an attack, your Primordial Companion can use your reaction to intercept the attack, moving up to its speed and becoming the target of the attack instead. ___ > ## Primordial Companion >*Medium elemental, unaligned* > ___ > - **Armor Class** 15 (natural armour) > - **Hit Points** 2 + your Charisma modifier + 5 times your warlock level (the companion has a number of Hit Dice [d8s] equal to your warlock level) > - **Speed** Speed: 40 ft.; burrow 40 ft.
