Warlock: The Arcanaloth
You have made a pact with a powerful Arcanaloth from the planes of Acheron, Carceri, Gehenna, or Hades, a being whose aims are evil, even if you strive against those aims. Sharp minded information brokers and book keepers of Gehenna, such beings desire power through knowledge and the striking of deals, all to serve their own evil, selfish pursuits.

Bonus Spells
At 1st level, you learn the Primal Savagery cantrip and the 1st level spell, Comprehend Languages. They count as warlock spells for you, but they don’t count against your number of spells known.
Awakened Mind
Starting at 1st level, your alien knowledge gives you the ability to touch the minds of other creatures. You can telepathically speak to any creature you can see within 30 feet of you. You don't need to share a language with the creature for it to understand your telepathic utterances, but the creature must be able to understand at least one language.
Dark One's Own Luck
Starting at 6th level, you can call on your patron to alter fate in your favor. When you make an ability check or a saving throw, you can use this feature to add a d10 to your roll. You can do so after seeing the initial roll but before any of the roll's effects occur.
Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a short or long rest.
Thought Shield
Starting at 10th level, your thoughts can't be read by telepathy or other means unless you allow it. You also have resistance to psychic damage, and whenever a creature deals psychic damage to you, that creature takes the same amount of damage that you do.
Consult the Books
At 14th level, you entreat your patron to grant you a brief glimpse into the Books of Keeping. As an action, you can speak your desire through a mental link to your patron, 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.
