The Aetheric Patron (5e Subclass)
Your patron is a powerful entity from the vast space above. Dwelling amongst the stars, they may be a mighty Void Lord of the Astral Plane, or a creature as old as time itself, bound to the confines of the limitless Æther, needing a vessel to fulfill its bidding.
These wielders of Astral magic often fit into their patron's grand design. |
Warlocks of the Ætheric look to the stars to learn the secrets of their master's power, and patrons may be of any alignment.

Astral Summon
At 14th level, you gain the power to bend the cosmos to summon your enemies. As an action, a targeted creature within 50 feet of you must make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failure, they take 10d10 force damage and are teleported instantly to another unoccupied space that you can see within 50 feet you. On a success, they take half damage. You must complete a long rest to use this feature again.
