Overview & Creation
You have made a pact with one of the rarest kinds of genie, a noble genie. Such entities rule vast fiefs on the Elemental Planes and have great influence over lesser genies and elemental creatures. Noble genies are varied in their motivations, but most are arrogant and wield power that rivals that of lesser deities. They delight in turning the table on mortals, who often bind genies into servitude, and readily enter into pacts that expand their reach.
Class Features
Genie Kind
You choose your patron’s kind or determine it randomly, using the Genie Kind table. Each form of genie has its own cantrip attached to it that they get for free and don’t count against their cantrips known. These do not scale.
Expanded Spell List
Free Cantrip
Your Genie Patron gifts you with the
Shocking Grasp cantrip. This cantrip does not count against your cantrips known and you gain bonuses if you reach certain levels as Warlock as long as you don’t have the eldritch blast cantrip in your cantrips known. At level 1, the range is 30 feet and is now a ranged spell attack. You may in turn attack someone with a melee spell attack instead if you want to avoid ranged disadvantage from 5 ft. At level 5, you can add your charisma modifier to the damage roll. At level 11, the range now increases to 60 feet. At level 17, you may target 2 hostile creatures.
Genie’s Vessel
1st-level Genie feature
Your patron gifts you a magical vessel that grants you a measure of the genie’s power. The vessel is a Tiny object, and you can use it as a spellcasting focus for your warlock spells. You decide what the object is, or you can determine what it is randomly by rolling on the Genie’s Vessel table.

While you are touching the vessel, you can use it in the following ways:
Bottled Respite. As an action, you can magically vanish and enter your vessel, which remains in the space you left. The interior of the vessel is an extradimensional space in the shape of a 20-foot-radius cylinder, 20 feet high, and resembles your vessel. The interior is appointed with cushions and low tables and is a comfortable temperature. While inside, you can hear the area around your vessel as if you were in its space. You can remain inside the vessel up to a number of hours equal to twice your proficiency bonus. You exit the vessel early if you use a bonus action to leave, if you die, or if the vessel is destroyed. When you exit the vessel, you appear in the unoccupied space closest to it. Any objects left in the vessel remain there until carried out, and if the vessel is destroyed, every object stored there harmlessly appears in the unoccupied spaces closest to the vessel’s former space. Once you enter the vessel, you can’t enter again until you finish a long rest.
Genie’s Wrath. Once during each of your turns when you hit with an attack roll, you can deal extra damage to the target equal to your proficiency bonus. The type of this damage is determined by your patron: bludgeoning (dao), thunder (djinni), fire (efreeti), or cold (marid).
The vessel’s AC equals your spell save DC. Its hit points equal your warlock level plus your proficiency bonus, and it is immune to poison and psychic damage.
If the vessel is destroyed or you lose it, you can perform a 1-hour ceremony to receive a replacement from your patron. This ceremony can be performed during a short or long rest, and the previous vessel is destroyed if it still exists. The vessel vanishes in a flare of elemental power when you die.
Eldritch Invications
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. Your invocation options are detailed at the end of the class description. When you gain certain warlock levels, you gain additional invocations of your choice, as shown in the Invocations Known column of the Warlock table.
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.
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.
Pact of the Chain
Level 3
You learn the find familiar spell and can cast it as a ritual. The spell doesn’t count against your number of spells known.
When you cast the spell, you can choose one of the normal forms for your familiar or one of the following special forms: imp, pseudodragon, quasit, or sprite.
Additionally, when you take the Attack action, you can forgo one of your own attacks to allow your familiar to make one attack with its reaction.

Levels 4, 8, 12, 16, and 19
You may Choose to put 2 plus 1's each into 2 abilitiy scores, Put both plus 1's in 1 ability score, or Take a feat from the feats list.
The Gift I Give To You
At level 5, you may regen 1 spell slot with a call to your patron. You channel for 1 minute dropping any spells you are concentrating on. You may still cast spells, but concentration will not hold. Attacks will not stop your channel, but dropping to 0 hit points will stop the channel and you miss out on it. You may do this once per long rest. You may only channel to regenerate a used spell slot. You may not channel to get more spell slots than warlock has at that level.
Elemental Gift
6th-level Genie feature
You begin to take on characteristics of your patron’s kind. You now have resistance to a damage type determined by your patron’s kind: bludgeoning (dao), thunder (djinni), fire (efreeti), or cold (marid).
In addition, as a bonus action, you can give yourself a flying speed of 30 feet that lasts for 10 minutes, during which you can hover. You can use this bonus action a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.
Also
at level 6, your Genie's wrath increases. You may also add your Con Mod of your element's type of damage as well as your prof mod you were already adding to 1 hit per tuen.
Sanctuary Vessel
10th-level Genie feature
When you enter your Genie’s Vessel via the Bottled Respite feature, you can now choose up to five willing creatures that you can see within 30 feet of you, and the chosen creatures are drawn into the vessel with you.
As a bonus action, you can eject any number of creatures from the vessel, and everyone is ejected if you leave or die or if the vessel is destroyed. In addition, anyone (including you) who remains within the vessel for at least 10 minutes gains the benefit of finishing a short rest, and anyone can add your proficiency bonus to the number of hit points they regain if they spend any Hit Dice as part of a short rest there.
Be Careful What You Wish For
You don't always get what you want, and you are sure to remind your enemies of this. Anytime a creature you see within 60 ft succeeds on an attack roll, saving throw, or ability check, you may use your reaction to force them to roll another D20 and take the lower of the 2 rolls. If this doesn't change the outcome, then nothing happens, but if this does change the outcome, you may within the next minute give yourself or any creature within the range advantage on any attack roll, ability check, or saving throw as a free action. You may hold more than 1 instance of this, however the duration you have to spend it is individually decided.
You may use this feature proficiency modifier amount of times per long rest. and all charges are refreshed onna long rest.

Limited Wish
14th-level Genie feature
You entreat your patron to grant you a small wish. As an action, you can speak your desire to your Genie’s Vessel, requesting the effect of one spell that is 6th level or lower and has a casting time of 1 action. The spell can be from any class’s spell list, and you don’t need to meet the requirements in that spell, including costly components; the spell simply takes effect as part of this action.
Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again until you finish 1d4 long rests.
After a long rest and at the roll of initiative, you may roll a d20 to get back this feature if it is currently on "cooldown". on a roll of 1 or 20, you get this feature back and once you use it again, you roll a new d4 to see when it comes off cooldown again.
Also at level 14, your Genie's Wrath increases again. You may add your Cha Mod of your element type to the damage that you were adding once per turn.
No Refunds on Gifts

Spellcasting
Pact Magic
Your arcane research and the magic bestowed on you by your patron have given you facility with spells. See Spells Rules for the general rules of spellcasting and the Spells Listing for the warlock spell list.
Cantrips
You know two cantrips of your choice from the warlock spell list. You learn additional warlock cantrips of your choice at higher levels, as shown in the Cantrips Known column of the Warlock table.
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.
For example, when you are 5th level, you have two 3rd-level spell slots. To cast the 1st-level spell witch bolt, you must spend one of those slots, and you cast it as a 3rd-level spell.
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, so 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
