    Otherwordly Patron: The Companion

    Your patron is a powerful extraplanar being of compassion, harmony, honor and integrity. Despite your patron's peaceful nature, it has no tolerance for evil and responds to threats it poses accordingly. Perhaps, your agreement with your patron is an example of such a response.
    Guardinal paragons residing in Elysium, including Talisid and the Five Companions, are good examples of entities capable of making pacts of this kind.

    Warlock level Feature
    1st Expanded Spell List, Gift of Elysium
    6th Lay on Hands
    10th Eldritch Bond
    14th Mystic Gift

    Expanded Spell List
    The Companion lets you choose from an expanded list of spells when you learn a warlock spell. The following spells are added to the warlock spell list for you.
    Spell level Spells
    1st beast bond, bless
    2nd aid, summon beast
    3rd life transference, lightning bolt
    4th death ward, polymorph
    5th reincarnate, summon celestial

    Gift of Elysium
    Also, at 1st level, you can share arcane power bestowed on you by the Companion. As a bonus action, you expend one of your warlock spell slots, and target creature within 30 ft of you gains a warlock spell slot of an equal level. A creature cannot have more than one warlock spell slot at any given time as a result of repeated application of this feature. A creature can expend this slot as normal or when it hits with a weapon attack, dealing additional 1d8 radiant damage + 1d8 more damage per slot level. If not expended, that spell slot disappears when the creature finishes a short or a long rest.
    Additionally, when you advance to the 2nd level in this class, you learn beast speech invocation. It doesn't count against your limit of invocations known.

    Lay on Hands
    Starting at 6th level, you can draw on your bond with the Companion to heal wounds with your touch. You have a pool of healing power that replenishes when you take a long rest. With that pool, you can restore a total number of hit points equal to your warlock level × 5.
    As an action, you can touch a creature and draw power from the pool to restore a number of hit points to that creature, up to the maximum amount remaining in your pool.
    Alternatively, you can expend 5 hit points from your pool of healing to cure the target of one disease or neutralize one poison affecting it. You can cure multiple diseases and neutralize multiple poisons with a single use of Lay on Hands, expending hit points separately for each one.
    This feature has no effect on undead and constructs.

    Eldritch Bond
    Starting at 10th level, you can share supernatural gifts of the Companion with other creatures. When you finish a long rest, you can perform a short ritual that a number of willing creatures up to your Charisma modifier (minimum 1 creature) can participate in to forge a special bond with you. Each creature gains one of eldritch invocations you know (you can share different invocations with different creatures) for 1 year. If an invocation has any prerequisites other than warlock level, the creature must meet them to gain this benefit. If you somehow cease to possess an invocation shared with a creature, the bond disappears. When you perform this ritual, you can alter or sever any existing bonds, but altering a bond requires a creature to participate in the ritual. You can't support a number of bonds greater than your Charisma modifier (minimum 1), and a creature can't benefit from more than one application of this feature simultaneously.
    Additionally, you learn guidance cantrip. It's a warlock cantrip for you and doesn't count against your limit of cantrips known. You may cast guidance as a reaction if a bonded creature within 5 ft of you attempts an ability check, though only on that creature.

    Mystic Gift
    Starting at 14th level, you can give away even the most secret and powerful arcana your patron has shared with you. You can expend a use of your Mystic Arcanum to bestow a Gift of Elysium. If you do, target creature gains a warlock spell slot of a corresponding level.
