Sir Brennen
Legend
Not saying you can't, but it may not be presented that way in the final official material. Delaying the decision of a PC's patron until 3rd level sounds like a new player friendly step they may take.I’m perfectly fine with representing my patron through spell selection and roleplaying, and don’t feel the need to have unique mechanical powers to make that relationship meaningful. Or, expressed more mundanely, I will stick my Patron, and thus my subclass, at 1st level. I just won't get any mechanical benefit until 3rd level. Which, again, is fine with me.
