Dungeons & Dragons 2024 (D&D) Subclass: Daemonologist

Level 3: Fair and Foul

The spells listed below can be added to your spellbook for no cost when you reach the associated level.

Each time you finish a Long Rest, choose whether you are siphoning power from Arch Daemons or Arch Seraphs. Consult the table below that corresponds to your choice; you can prepare the spells listed for your Wizard level and lower, but you can’t prepare the ones for the opposite faction. For example, if you choose Arch Daemon as your siphoned power, you can’t prepare the spells listed in the Arch Seraph section.

Arch Daemon

Arch Seraph

Level 3: Stolen Secrets

You have uncovered or stolen secret power from agents of the Arch Daemons and Arch Seraphs. You gain one Eldritch Invocation of your choice.

Prerequisites. If an invocation has a prerequisite, you must meet it to learn that invocation. If an invocation has a Warlock level prerequisite, you use your Wizard level instead. For example, if an invocation requires you to be a level 5+ Warlock, you can select the invocation once you reach Wizard level 5.

Replacing and Gaining Invocations. Whenever you gain a Wizard level, you can replace one of your invocations with another one for which you qualify. You can’t replace an invocation if it’s a prerequisite for another invocation that you have.

You gain an additional invocation when you reach Wizard levels 6 and 14.

You can’t pick the same invocation more than once unless its description says otherwise.

Intelligent Invocations. You can use your Intelligence modifier instead of your Charisma modifier for your invocations.

Level 6: Borrowed Tongues and Hides

Your ability to siphon power from Celestials and Fiends is enhanced. You gain the following benefits.

Arch Daemon Boon. While you are siphoning power from Arch Daemons, you have Resistance to Necrotic damage. In addition, Fiends that know languages can understand your speech and you can understand theirs, even if you do not share a language.

Arch Seraph Boon. While you are siphoning power from Arch Seraphs, you have Resistance to Radiant damage. In addition, Celestials that know languages can understand your speech and you can understand theirs, even if you do not share a language.

Switch Sides. As a Bonus Action, you can change which power you are siphoning from. Once you switch, you can’t do so again until you finish a Long Rest.

Level 10: Unearthly Countenance

As a Bonus Action, you adopt an infernal or celestial countenance for 10 minutes. For the duration, your appearance gains aspects of the power you choose. You gain the following benefits.

Commanding Presence. You have Advantage on Charisma checks.

Improved Spells. When you expend a spell slot to cast a spell from the Arch Daemon or Arch Seraph table, the spell is cast as if you had spent a spell slot of one level higher.

Unearthly Wings. You gain a Fly Speed of 60 feet.

Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again until you finish a Long Rest. You can also restore your use of it by expending a level 5+ spell slot (no action required).

Level 14: Eternal War Eruption

You use the powers at your command to call forth warring celestials and infernals. As a Magic action, you summon a manifestation of the war between Arch Daemons and Arch Seraphs in a 30-foot-radius Sphere centered on a point within 120 feet of yourself.

Each creature in the Sphere must make a Charisma saving throw against your spell save DC. On a failed save, a creature takes 4d10 Necrotic damage, 4d10 Radiant damage, and has the Blinded condition until the end of its next turn. On a successful save, a creature takes half as much damage only.

As part of the same action, you can change the power you are siphoning from, and you also regain 1 Wizard spell slot of your choice of 5th level or lower.

Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again until you finish a Long Rest.
