Chaos Blast
Least;1st;Eldrich Essence
This eldrich essence invocation infuses your Eldrich Blast with the power of chaos. It will not affect a chaotic creature, and deals your charisma bonus in additional damage to any lawful creature struck. Additionally, it is treated as chaos-aligned for the purpose of any ill effects that a target would suffer from being struck by chaotic-aligned damage. You must be chaotic to use this invocation. You may use this invocation as well as another Eldrich Essence invocation and a Blast Shape invocation.

Dark Blast
Least;1st;Eldrich Essence
This eldrich essence invocation infuses your Eldrich Blast with the power of evil. It will not affect an evil creature, and deals your charisma bonus in additional damage to any good creature struck. Additionally, it is treated as evil-aligned for the purpose of any ill effects that a target would suffer from being struck by evil-aligned damage. You must be evil to use this invocation. You may use this invocation as well as another Eldrich Essence invocation and a Blast Shape invocation.

Light Blast
Least;1st;Eldrich Essence
This eldrich essence invocation infuses your Eldrich Blast with the power of good. It will not affect a good creature, and deals your charisma bonus in additional damage to any evil creature struck. Additionally, it is treated as good-aligned for the purpose of any ill effects that a target would suffer from being struck by good-aligned damage. You must be good to use this invocation. You may use this invocation as well as another Eldrich Essence invocation and a Blast Shape invocation.

Orderly Blast
Least;1st;Eldrich Essence
This eldrich essence invocation infuses your Eldrich Blast with the power of law. It will not affect a lawful creature, and deals your charisma bonus in additional damage to any chaotic creature struck. Additionally, it is treated as law-aligned for the purpose of any ill effects that a target would suffer from being struck by law-aligned damage. You may use this invocation as well as another Eldrich Essence invocation and a Blast Shape invocation.

Soul Sight
Lesser;4th
You can manifest Aura Sight (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/psionic/powers/auraSight.htm) as the power. It is always unaugmented.

Summon
Variable invocation and spell levels
You can cast the Summon Monster spell with the spell level equal to half your warlock level. The invocation's equivalent spell level scales with the level of the Summon Monster spell. You may use a lower spell level if you wish. You may only have the effect of one Summon invocation active at a time. As you gain access to more powerful invocations, this one must scale in power. It may be taken as a Least invocation, but will only provide up to a Summon Monster II effect as such. As a Lesser invocation, it will only provide up to a Summon Monster IV effect, up to a Summon Monster VI effect as a Greater invocation, and up to a Summon Monster IX effect as a Dark invocation. At any level where you gain a new invocation known, you may unlearn this invocation, replace it with a different invocation of the same invocation level, and learn a more powerful version of this invocation. For example, at 8th level, a warlock could exchange their Least version of the Summon invocation for Eldrich Spear and learn the Lesser version of the Summon invocation, which could now yeild a Summon Monster IV effect, rather than the Summon Monster II effect it was previously able to produce.

Magic Circle
Lesser;3rd
You can cast Magic Circle Against Good, Magic Circle Against Evil, Magic Circle Against Law, and Magic Circle Against Chaos as the spells.

Earthly Chains
Lesser;4th
You can cast Dimensional Anchor as the spell. The ray has a chain pattern, and wraps the target around if it hits.

Lesser Planar Binding
Lesser;5th
You can cast Lesser Planar Binding as the spell.

Greater Planar Binding
Greater;6th
You can cast Planar Binding as the spell. If you knew Lesser Planar Binding previously, you may exchange it in a mannar simmilar to the Summon invocation.

Dark Planar Binding
Dark;8th
You can cast Greater Planar Binding as the spell(not to be confused with the invocation). If you knew Lesser Planar Binding or Greater Planar Binding previously, you may exchange it in a mannar simmilar to the Summon invocation.

Eldrich Smite
Lesser;4th;Blast Shape
This invocation can only be used in conjunction with Chaos Blast, Dark Blast, Light Blast, or Orderly Blast. It forgoes the usual effects of the Eldrich Essence invocation used except for making the damage aligned and not damageing the corresponding alignment, in favor of the following effects. The blast is a 20-foot radius burst centered on a point that a normal Eldrich Blast could be directed at. The blast deals d8s for damage rather than d6s. A creature within the radius of an Eldrich Smite recieves a Will save for half damage. A creature whose alignment is neutral in regard to the alignment axis that the Eldrich Essence invocation used coresponds to has the damage halved again. A creature with the opposite alignment subtype from the Eldrich Essence invocation used takes a number of d6 equal to your caster level(with a save for half damage as usual).

Master's Visage
2nd;Least
You can use or dismiss this invocation as a swift action. Your from changes to make the source of your powers obvious(for example, a demonic warlock would grow short horns too small to use as a gore attack, a pair of bat wings incapable of bearing them, red eyes, and elongated fingernails that are too brittle to use as a claw attack). This grants you a +10 to Disguise checks for appearing to not be yourself. It also grants a +6 circumstance bonus to Intimidate checks against those who would oppose you for the source of your powers(good-aligned and most neutral-aligned characters, in the demonic example) and a +6 circumstance bonus to Diplomacy checks against those who would support the source of your powers(most evil-aligned characters in the demonic example). You also recieve the bonus to Disguise checks if the observer has only seen you with this invocation active, and you do not have it active

Summon for a warlock? no. Unless you want swarms of monster running around.

Summon for a warlock? no. Unless you want swarms of monster running around.

Addressed this concern by only allowing one summon invocation at a time. Thank you for pointing it out.

Edit/delete ninja: Added another invocation and balanced some existing ones.
