Eldritch Invocations List

If an eldritch invocation has prerequisites, you must meet them to learn it. You can learn the invocation at the same time that you meet its prerequisites. A level prerequisite refers to your level in this class.  

Agonizing Blast

Prerequisite: Eldritch Blast cantrip   When you cast Eldritch Blast, add your Charisma modifier to the damage it deals on a hit.  

Armor of Shadows

You can cast Mage Armor on yourself at will, without expending a spell slot or material components.  

Ascendant Step

Prerequisite: 9th Level You can cast Levitate on yourself at will, without expending a spell slot or material components.  

Aspect of the Moon

Prerequisite: Pact of the Tome   You no longer need to sleep and can't be forced to sleep by any means. To gain the benefits of a long rest, you can spend all 8 hours doing light activity, such as reading your Book of Shadows and keeping watch.  

Beast Speech

You can cast Speak With Animals at will, without expending a spell slot.  

Beguiling Influence

You gain proficiency in the Deception and Persuasion skills.  

Bewitching Whispers

Prerequisite: 7th level   You can cast Compulsion once using a warlock spell slot. You can't do so again until you finish a long rest.  

Book of Ancient Secrets

Prerequisite: Pact of the Tome   You can now inscribe magical rituals in your Book of Shadows. Choose two 1st-level spells that have the ritual tag from any class’s spell list. The spells appear in the book and don't count against the number of spells you know. With your Book of Shadows in hand, you can cast the chosen spells as rituals. You can't cast the spells except as rituals, unless you've learned them by some other means. You can also cast a warlock spell you know as a ritual if it has the ritual tag.   On your adventures, you can add other ritual spells to your Book of Shadows. When you find such a spell, you can add it to the book if the spell's level is equal to or less than half your warlock level (rounded up) and if you can spare the time to transcribe the spell. For each level of the spell, the transcription process takes 2 hours and costs 50 gp for the rare inks needed to inscribe it.  

Chains of Carceri

Prerequisite: 15th level, Pact of the Chain   You can cast Hold Monster at will — targeting a celestial, fiend, or elemental — without expending a spell slot or material components. You must finish a long rest before you can use this invocation on the same creature again.  

Cloak of Flies

Prerequisite: 5th level   As a bonus action, you can surround yourself with a magical aura that looks like buzzing flies. The aura extends 5 feet from you in every direction, but not through total cover. It lasts until you're incapacitated or you dismiss it as a bonus action.   The aura grants you advantage on Charisma (Intimidation) checks but disadvantage on all other Charisma checks. Any other creature that starts its turn in the aura takes poison damage equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum of 0 damage).   Once you use this invocation, you can't use it again until you finish a short or long rest.  

Devil's Sight

You can see normally in darkness, both magical and non-magical, to a distance of 120 feet.  

Dreadful Word

Prerequisite: 7th level   You can cast Confusion once using a warlock spell slot per long rest.  

Eldritch Sight

You can cast Detect Magic at will, without expending a spell slot.  

Eldritch Smite

Prerequisite: 5th level, Pact of the Blade   Once per turn when you hit a creature with your pact weapon, you can expend a warlock spell slot to deal an extra 1d8 force damage to the target, plus another 1d8 per level of the spell slot, and you can knock the target prone if it is Huge or smaller.  

Eldritch Spear

You can cast False Life on yourself at will as a 1st-level spell, without expending a spell slot or material components.  

Gaze of Two Minds

You can use your action to touch a willing humanoid and perceive through its senses until the end of your next turn. As long as the creature is on the same plane of existence as you, you can use your action on subsequent turns to maintain this connection, extending the duration until the end of your next turn. While perceiving through the other creature's senses, you benefit from any special senses possessed by that creature, and you are blinded and deafened to your own surroundings.  

Ghostly Gaze

Prerequisite: 7th level   As an action, you gain the ability to see through solid objects to a range of 30 feet. Within that range, you have darkvision if you don't already have it. This special sight lasts for 1 minute or until your concentration ends (as if you were concentrating on a spell). During that time, you perceive objects as ghostly, transparent images.   Once you use this invocation, you can't use it again until you finish a short or long rest.  

Gift of the Depths

Prerequisite: 5th level   You can breathe underwater, and you gain a swimming speed equal to your walking speed.   You can also cast Water Breathing once without expending a spell slot. You regain the ability to do so when you finish a long rest.

Maddening Hex

Prerequisite: 5th level, Hex spell or a warlock feature that curses   As a bonus action, you cause a psychic disturbance around the target cursed by your hex spell or by a warlock feature of yours, such as Hexblade's Curse or Sign of Ill Omen.

Pact Magic

Your arcane research and the magic bestowed on you by your patron have given you facility with spells.  

Cantrips

You know two cantrips of your choice from the warlock spell list. You learn additional warlock cantrips of your choice at higher levels, learning a 3rd cantrip at 4th level and a 4th at 10th level.  

Spell Slots

The Warlock table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your warlock spells of 1st through 5th level. The table also shows what the level of those slots is; all of your spell slots are the same level. To cast one of your warlock spells of 1st level or higher, you must expend a spell slot. You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a short or long rest.  

Spells Known of 1st Level and Higher

At 1st level, you know two 1st-level spells of your choice from the warlock spell list.   The Spells Known column of the Warlock table shows when you learn more warlock spells of your choice of 1st level and higher. A spell you choose must be of a level no higher than what's shown in the table's Slot Level column for your level. When you reach 6th level, for example, you learn a new warlock spell, which can be 1st, 2nd, or 3rd level.   Additionally, when you gain a level in this class, you can choose one of the warlock spells you know and replace it with another spell from the warlock spell list, which also must be of a level for which you have spell slots.  

Spellcasting Ability

Charisma is your spellcasting ability for your warlock spells. You use your Charisma whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Charisma modifier when setting the saving throw DC for a warlock spell you cast and when making an attack roll with one.   Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier   Spell Attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier  

Spellcasting Focus

You can use an arcane focus as a spellcasting focus for your warlock spells.  

Eldritch Invocations

In your study of occult lore, you have unearthed eldritch invocations, fragments of forbidden knowledge that imbue you with an abiding magical ability. At 2nd level, you gain two eldritch invocations of your choice. When you gain certain warlock levels, you gain additional invocations of your choice.   Additionally, when you gain a level in this class, you can choose one of the invocations you know and replace it with another invocation that you could learn at that level.   A level prerequisite in an invocation refers to warlock level, not character level.
