📋 About This Mod

Fathomless Warlock

Subclass Icon courtesy of wequeen.

Based on The Fathomless patron for Warlocks in 5e.

Requires Veenab Library

Compatible with 5e Spells.

Compatible with Veenab 5e Homebrew & Spells.

Compatible with Level 12+.

Level 1 - Tentacle of the Deep

Gain Tentacle of the Deep and Command: Tentacle as Class Actions.

As a Bonus Action, conjure a spectral tentacle. The tentacle cannot be harmed and will not be targeted by enemies.

The tentacle cannot make any actions unless you use your Bonus Action to cast Command: Tentacle.

The tentacle will automatically be commanded when first summoned.

The number of times you can use this feature is based on your Proficiency Bonus, refreshing after a Long Rest.

Once commanded, the spectral tentacle can use its two abilities, Abyssal Lash and Deep Dive.

Abyssal Lash acts as it's attack. The tentacle strikes an enemy within 3m, dealing 1d8 Cold damage and reducing their Movement Speed by 3m.

Deep Dive acts as its movement. The tentacle dives below and reappears at a location within 9m.

You can also take the Larian-ized version of this feature instead.

If you do, the Spectral Tentacle gains the ability to act independently from the summoner, same as other summon abilities.

Level 1 - Gift of the Sea

Gain the Gift of the Sea Passive.

While you enter a water-based surface on your turn, you gain 3m of movement.

This can only trigger in turn-based mode.

Level 6 - Oceanic Soul

Gain the Oceanic Soul Passive.

Gain Resistance to Cold damage.

Level 6 - Guardian Coil

You gain Guardian Coil as a Reaction.

Your spectral tentacle gains the Guardian Tentacle Aura.

When you or an ally within 3m of your spectral tentacle would take damage, you can use your Reaction to reduce the damage you/they would take by 1d8.

Level 10 - Improvements

Abyssal Lash now deals 2d8 Cold damage and Guardian Coil can reduce damage taken by 2d8.

🤖 AI-enhanced — based on mod data

Adds the Fathomless Patron for Warlocks, a water/sea-themed subclass from 5e D&D, featuring a Spectral Tentacle that fights alongside you. A popular class mod with 708 endorsements and over 255k downloads, last updated April 2026.

✨ Key Features

Adds the Fathomless Patron subclass for Warlocks, based on the 5e Dungeons & Dragons subclass.
Water/sea-themed abilities centered around summoning a Spectral Tentacle to fight with you.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Community favorite with 708 endorsements and over 255k downloads — clearly a well-loved class mod.
  • Brings a unique 5e subclass to the game, offering a fresh playstyle for Warlock fans.
  • Recently updated (April 2026), so likely compatible with current game versions.

⚠️ Cons

  • No screenshots or videos provided, so you can't see the Spectral Tentacle in action before downloading.
  • No mention of required dependencies or mod manager support, so you might need to figure that out yourself.
🎯 Is This For You?
For D&D 5e fans who want to play the Fathomless Warlock in their game, especially those who enjoy water-themed magic and summoning allies. Skip if you're looking for a lore-rich or heavily documented mod — this one is straightforward but lacks extra polish.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Check the mod's file structure after downloading — if it's a .pak or .esp, place it in the correct game folder (e.g., Data folder for Bethesda games).
  • If the mod requires a mod manager, use one like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to avoid manual file conflicts.
  • Since the description doesn't mention load order, place this mod after other class mods to ensure it overwrites correctly.
