This damage is in addition to any weapon damage that you deal with your attack, although you need not deal damage with this attack to trigger the [i]eldritch blast[/i] effect. [b]Profane Utterance[/b] Dark; 7th You speak a single word of the Dark Speech, striking a single creature within 40 feet of you with [i]blasphemy[/i] or [i]word of chaos[/i], your choice when casting this invocation. Unlike the spells, this invocation doesn't banish outsiders. Any good or lawful creatures (depending on the version you cast) within 40 feet of you (including the target and even yourself) are unsettled by this terrible word and are shaken for 1 round (no save). This invocation has a verbal component instead of a somatic component. [b]Shocking Blast[/b] Greater; 6th; Eldritch Essence This eldritch essence invocation allows you to change your [i]eldritch blast[/i] into a [i]shocking blast[/i]. A [i]shocking blast[/i] deals electricity damage. Any creature struck by a [i]shocking blast[/i] must make a Fortitude save or be dazed for one round, as the electrocuting currents overwhelm his system. Any creature that is immune to electricity damage is also immune to the daze effect. If the target is wearing metal armor or carrying a lot of metal, you gain a +3 bonus to your attack roll. [b]Feats[/b] [b]Lord of Fiends [Epic][/b] You have mastered your fiendish powers. [b]Prerequisites[/b]: Spellcraft 24 ranks, [i]fiendish gaze[/i], [i]fiendish skin[/i], [i]the fiend within[/i]. [b]Benefit[/b]: As a full-round action, you can summon a single creature from the [i]summon monster I-IX[/i] list that is an evil outsider. This fiend serves you for a number of rounds equal to your caster level. You can use [i]dominate monster[/i] on evil outsiders. This effect lasts for a number of days equal to your caster level. Activating this ability is a standard action. You gain immunity to poison and energy resistance 10 to acid, cold, electricity and fire. This stacks with energy resistances gained from other sources. This is an extraordinary ability. Evil outsiders see you as one of their own kind. These creatures react to you as if their attitude is two steps better than the situation otherwise warrants. This is an extraordinary ability. This feat may be taken as a bonus epic warlock feat, but the character must meet its prerequisites. [Edit] Changed the DCs to save against the frenzy and exhuastion for the Fiend Within invocation to a fixed number. Also changed the Profane Utterance invocation to inflict either blasphemy or word of chaos instead of both and took out the ability for it to banish outsiders. It also can render the casting warlock shaken if he has an appropriate alignment. Put a maximum range on Hideous Shot. Removed the intimidate bonus on the Fiendish Gaze invocation. [/QUOTE]
