The Archfey
The patron is a legendary, often whimsical fairy creature that can hide many secrets. Some seek greater power, others seek to lift a curse. The motivations of an archfey are unique and sometimes hard to understand, but the mystery makes them all the more intriguing.
The archfey and their warlocks focus on illusion, deception, and enchantment, appealing to players who want to concentrate on these areas and have fun.
It is a good choice for new warlocks, as this subclass is not too complex like that of the Great Old One.
Examples of Otherworldly Patrons:
Rulers over various domains of nature, Titania and her companion Oberon, but also ancient witches.
Best Features:
- Faerie Fire (1st-level spell): Affected targets are surrounded by blue, green, or purple light, making invisible targets visible. Additionally, attackers against these targets have advantage on attack rolls.
- Sleep (1st-level spell): This spell sends targets into a magical slumber, rendering the target unconscious until the spell ends.
