First Post
So this stems off of my try at a whole new class the Essentialist. I deicded rather than splicing a bunch of old classes together, i'd just add a new pact to the warlock sine i liked the warlock already. Let me know what you think, especially about the pact boon. I know it seems very control-ish, but i figure since it only affect one target it shouldn't be too bad.
Hope to get plenty of feedback, thanks for reading.
Spirit Pact
You have forged a bargain with spirits, which links you directly to the spirit world. Whether you learned the art through study or from a restless spirit, your knowledge of the dead allows you to channel necrotic energy that weakens and immobilizes your foes, drawing them ever closer to the spirit world.
