Kelpie, Goblin Warlock of the Deep

in ,

Been playing this gal in an episodic West Marches-style campaign over roll20, thanks to the covid-19 quarantines.

She’s got a penchant for little white lies, and is trained in Sleight of Hand to slip her scrimshaw talisman (Pact of the Talisman from the Class Variant UA) into her comrades’ pockets. Kelpie’s patron is a melodious Mermaid trapped in glacial ice… or at least, that’s what it seems like to her.

Lurker in the Deep patron is SO much fun - the extra abilities they get for damage and control save spell slots, letting them take more spells for utility. Kelpie is taking a fair amount of ocean and storm-themed spells (like Lightning Bolt and Sleet Storm), but also has room for fun and thematic spells like Misty Step and Control Water. I really hope this subclass sees official print; it’s great.
