Otherworldly patron: The Divine Messenger

While Clerics and Paladins execute the will of the Gods, the Divine Messenger delivers the words of the Gods. You have made a pact with this being, and gain the ability to speak the words of Gods. You and your kind are called by many names: oracles, sibyls, prophets. Regardless of what you are called, the prophecies utter by your kinds have brought nations to zenith of power or to their utter ruin.

Expanded spell list

The spirit of the Divine Messenger 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.

Divine Messenger Spells

Spell Level	Spells
1st	identify, sanctuary
2nd	augury, magic mouth
3rd	clairvoyance, speak with dead
4th	divination, locate creature
5th	commune, legend lore

Oracle

At 1st level, you become the mouthpiece of the Gods through the Divine Messenger, delivering their messages to the mortal realm. You learn the Thaumaturgy and Message cantrips. They count as warlock cantrips for you, but they don’t count against your number of cantrips known. You also know Celestial.

Counsel from the Gods

At 1st level, you deliver counsel and advice to the commonfolk thanks to your divine guidance. Whenever a friendly creature within 30 feet of you other than yourself that can hear you is making a Wisdom or Intelligence ability check, you can add double your proficiency bonus to the roll. You can do this after you have seen the roll but before the outcome is known.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum of once), and you regain all expanded uses of it when you finish a long rest.

Turn of Fate

At 6th level, you can see glimpses of the fate of those who consults you. Whenever a hostile creature is about to hit a friendly creature within 30 feet of you other than yourself with a weapon attack, you can see this vision ahead of time and pronounce it to your ally, turning that attack into a miss as a reaction.

Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again until you finish a short or long rest.

Promised One

At 10th level, while in the past, you have acted as a loyal messenger, only delivering prophetic counsels and premonitions of others, you now have been deemed worthy by the Divine Messenger to become a chosen hero, the subject of the prophecies themselves. You gain resistance to psychic and necrotic damage and you can use Counsel from the Gods and Turn of Fate features on yourself.

Otherworldly Patron | The Divine Messenger

Book of Prophecies

Prerequisite: Divine Messenger Patron, Pact of the Tome feature

Your Book of Shadows becomes a Book of Prophecies, containing the words of all prophecies that have been and have yet to be. You gain proficiency in History and Religion, and your proficiency bonus is doubled for any ability check that you make that uses either skills.

Oak Branch

Prerequisite: Divine Messenger Patron, Pact of the Blade feature

You can summon a special pact weapon of any form with versatile or reach property, fashioned from an entire oak branch of the Divine Messenger's sacred oak tree. This weapon deals radiant damage instead of its normal damage type. When you attack with this weapon, you can use your Charisma modifier, instead of Strength or Dexterity, for the attack and damage rolls. On a hit, you can cast Divine Favor using a warlock spell slot before dealing damage.

Offerings to the Gods

Prerequisite: Divine Messenger Patron, Pact of the Chain feature

While you have the Sacrificial Ram as your familiar, it gains additional hit points equal to your warlock level. When it is sacrificed, instead of triggering Ambrosia and Golden Fleece, you can instead choose to use the body of the animal as a whole as offerings to the Gods. As long as you have the body, you can consume it to cast a 5th level or below warlock divination spell that you know without expending a spell slot or material components. The body will also disappear at the beginning of a long rest, or when you summon the familiar again. You can't do it again until you finish a long rest.

Oak Leaf Omen

Prerequisite: 5th level, Divine Messenger Patron

The oak tree is the sacred tree of the Divine Messenger and you can gain a keen foresight just by looking at its leaves, allowing you to alter the flow of the battle before it even happens. When you roll initiative, you can swap the order of initiative between any number of allies up to your Charisma modifier, including yourself. You can’t do it again until you finish a long rest.

Inevitable Realization

Prerequisite: 7th level, Divine Messenger Patron

The prophetic words of the Divine Messenger are always convoluted and open to numerous interpretation. But regardless, they always become true, even in the most unexpected ways possible. At the end of a long rest, open the Book of Prophecies, make 1d20 roll, record the result of the roll and choose an effect listed below. Whenever you or a friendly creature makes the roll of the chosen effect type with the same result as the recorded roll, the effect will happen regardless of the normal outcome. Until the next long rest, they can not benefit from this feature again. When you are comparing the roll, only compare with the roll chosen after advantage and disadvantage has been applied.

Sacred Animal

Prerequisite: 9th level, Divine Messenger Patron, Pact of the Chain

Any familiar that you summoned whose form is a beast becomes a celestial type and gains immunity to necrotic and poison damage. It understands Celestial and can now cast spells. You must forgo one of your attack to allow the familiar to cast spells using its reaction. All of the following spells have cast time changed to 1 reaction and are cast at your current spell slot level. If a spell can only be cast 1/day, this restriction is shared between all of your summoned familiars.

At will: Detect Good and Evil, Guidance, Light, Resistance, Spare the Dying, Thaumaturgy

1/day each: Fly (if it has a fly speed), Haste (if it has a walk speed), Water Breathing (if it has a swim speed)
