Pactmage

Wiki Note: This archetype should not be confused with the Pactmaker class or the Pact Magic system as a whole.

---

Pact Invocations: A pactmage begins play making a pact with a powerful outsider or creature. While the ultimate nature of this creature is up to the GM, the nature of that creature grants the pactmage access to unique invocations, as detailed below.

This replaces occult knowledge.

Pactmage Patrons

Celestial Pact: Your pact is with a good-aligned outsider, such as an angel or azata.

• Lingering Guidance: At 2nd level, when using forbidden lore to augment a spell or sphere effect, you may use an invocation to grant the affected targets a +1 sacred bonus to attack rolls, skill checks, ability checks, and saving throws for 1 round.

• Celestial Blessing: At 6th level, when using lingering blessing, the temporary hit points last for 1d4+1 rounds.

• Empowered Recovery: At 14th level, when you are the target of a healing spell or ability, you may use an invocation to increase the number of hit points you recover by 50%.

Infernal Pact: Your pact is with an evil-aligned outsider, such as a demon or devil.
