Invocations: The Sovereign Throne

Bounty of the Benefactor

Prerequisite: 7th-Level
You can cast fabricate once using a warlock spell slot. You can't do so again until you finish a long rest.
When you would cast fabricate this way and don't have the materials needed to create an object, you can instead cast fabricate to create a Tiny object from nothing as if taken from your throne. This object vanishes when you cast fabricate again this way.

Crown of the Cathedra

Prerequisite: Pact of the Talisman feature
Your talisman becomes a crown, or similar attire, that resembles your throne. When you expend a warlock spell slot to cast a spell that targets only you, your talisman gains a charge. Your talisman can only have a number of charges equal to half your warlock level (rounded down). These charges are separate from any other pool of charges your talisman may have. You can use an action to expend some of its charges to cast one of the following spells from it, using your spell save DC and spellcasting ability: crown of madnessPHB p.229 (2 charges) & crown of starsXGTE p.152 (7 charges).
A creature within 120 feet of you wearing your talisman has disadvantage on its saving throw when you cast crown of madness through your talisman.
Once you use this invocation, you can't cast another spell this way until your finish a long rest.

Defiled Throne

Whether desecrated, corrupted, cursed, or otherwise, your patron has been tainted with powerful magic and it has affected you. Over time a small portion of your body is slowly infected and begins to spread, turning your flesh into a material that resembles your patron.
Whenever you use your action to manifest your patron's mark from your Chosen Heir feature, you can reveal your cursed form as part of that action. Each affected creature must make a Wisdom saving throw against your spell save DC or become frightened of you for the next minute. When a frightened creature ends its turn in a location where it doesn't have line of sight of you, the creature can make a Wisdom saving throw, ending the frightened condition on a success. On either success, the creature becomes immune to being frightened this way for the next 24 hours.

Destined for Greatness

Prerequisite: 12th-level

You gain an additional use of your Fated Trial feature before requiring a short or long rest.

Heavy is the Crown

You can now change and prepare your spells whenever you finish a short or long rest. When you do so, choose a number of warlock spells equal to the amount of your warlock Known Spells. You replace your current known spells with those spells and gain a level of exhaustion. The spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots.
While you have a level of exhaustion, you can treat its effects as if it was one level lower.

Kingdom Come

Prerequisite: 15th-level
You can cast Mordenkainen's magnificent mansionPHB p.261 or mighty fortressXGTE p.161 without expending a spell slot. You can't do so again until you finish a long rest. Inside either abode rests a throne in the image of your patron.

Rule by Divine Right

Prerequisite: Pact of the Tome feature

When you gain another warlock level, you can choose another spell to gain this way that is up to a spell level you can cast. The spell is added to your Book of Shadows or replaces a spell already gained this way. You can have a number of spells gained this way up to your Charisma modifier (minimum 1).

You no longer need to concentrate on warlock spells, but you can't have more than two spells that require concentration active at once. Instead of making Constitution saving throws to maintain concentration, you instead must make Wisdom saving throws when you take damage, as if making a Concentration check. On a failure, you waste your next turn repeatedly whispering, freaking out, or laughing madly.

Seat of Thronebound

Prerequisite: 7th-level

• You gain temporary hit points equal to warlock level.
• You remove all levels of exhaustion you have.

Your familiar can't cast shield this way if it is occupying the same space as you or sharing the same space with multiple other creatures.
Once the familiar casts shield this way, it can't do so again until the warded creature finishes a long rest or 8 hours have passed after the warded creature's death.

Your patron has always been or just-now transforms into a throne comprised entirely out of weapons. When you summon your pact weapon, it appears to be pulled directly from the sheathe of your throne, seemingly made of the same material of your patron.
When you would deal damage to a creature with your pact weapon, if it then has a number of hit points equal to your warlock level or less, the creature instantly dies. Then it's body immediately transforms into the same material as your weapon and scatters away.
When you would kill a creature this way, you can use your reaction to absorb the essence of the creature's weapon into your weapon. This effect destroys the absorbed weapon. If you do, the next time you roll damage using your pact weapon, you can treat the result of one of the weapon's damage dice as the maximum possible roll.
