I love the themes the warlock class bring to the table. Any character who wound up pledging himself to some sort of mysterious (Great old one), downright weird (Archfey), or devil (Fiend) will almost always have some sort of interesting backstory which is fun to explore in game.
However, the warlock subclasses in of themselves are pretty limited. Playing a warlock of Dagon, a demon lord of the abyss who resides in water, gives you the same classic "kill them all with fire" benefits as playing a warlock of Asmodeus. This is my attempt to change this.

I look like a handsome demon, not handsome devil. Get it right ladies.
Expanded Spell list:
Spell Level
Spells
1st
Command, Sleep
2nd
Detect Thoughts, Alter Self
3rd
Haste, Hypnotic Pattern
4th
Compulsion, Polymorph
5th
Dominate Person, Passwall
Pact features:
Handsome Demon:
Starting at level 1, any creature that normally has immunity to spells that inflict charmed conditions now only has advantage on saving throws against these spells when cast by you.
Master Enchanter:
Starting at level 6, you gain an extra pact magic spell slot. This spell slot can only be used to cast a spell from the enchantment school.
Tyranny of love:
Starting at level 10, targets of spells that affect their behavior will engage in any sort of behavior you wish. Any conditions of spells that state that targets will not follow commands directly detrimental to their health do not apply when you cast them. For example, you could use the spell Compulsion (PHB 224) to convince someone to walk off the edge of a cliff.
Hell Hath No Fury:
Starting at level 14, whenever a target succeeds in a saving throw against one of your spells from the enchantment school, other than cantrips, is wracked by immense guilt for not obeying your every whim. Opponents take 5d6 psychic damage upon succeeding on a successful saving throw. After they take the damage, they are vulnerable to all other damage you deal to them within the next round.
