Now you're, well... you're still you, but you're different, there's things you need to do, a deal is a deal, right?

Blastlock Templates:

A) Pact of Madness - You can now "blast" eldritch energy from your palms. Make an attack roll, on a success deal 1d6+CHA damage (minimum 1), Treat a natural 20 as a mishap (see below). You also gain an Eldritch Gift (see below), as a result your eyes now glow/fluoresce a color you choose (no benefit). You can touch a creature and make an opposed CHA test, on a success you know their darkest fear/deepest secret. On a failure they know yours.

B) Repulsive Bargain - Your mind and/or body react to the presence of Eldritch energies, for better or worse...You now deal 1d8+CHA damage. You can choose to roll 1 step lower (so 1d6) and push the target a reasonable amount.

C) Patron's Gift - Your damage is now 1d10+CHA. You also gain another Eldritch Gift. You can now "Soulburn": Roll 2d3, add both to your damage and take the lower as damage to yourself, if you roll doubles, you take no damage (Soulburn damage you take can't be healed magically).

D) Eldritch Blast - Your damage is now 1d12+CHA. You can now charge inanimate objects with Eldritch energy, they explode on significant impact (requires an attack roll if used as a projectile), causing 3d4 damage (DEX save for half). You now Soulburn with 2d4. You can Soulburn your Eldritch Blasts. At your GM's discretion you might get to choose another Eldritch Gift.

Eldritch Gifts - Roll a 1d8 If you already have the gift, re-roll, or discuss enhancements with the GM.

1. Your Patron lets you choose your gift. Roll twice and pick, re-rolling any further 1s.
2. Choose a small creature known to you, you can shape your Eldritch energy into this creature and leave it somewhere for up to a number of days equal to your templates. If someone comes within 10ft of it, you will be alerted, on a successful CHA check you will also be able to see and hear them briefly.
3. You can manifest your Eldritch energy as a tome, anything you say while holding it open and not reading from it will be written down in it.
4. You can form your Eldritch energy into up to 50' of rope with a grappling hook on one end, it is insubstantial to any creature you don't wish to have use it unless they pass a save against your CHA.
5. You can use your Eldritch energy to disguise yourself (as Disguise spell) (your eyes still fluoresce/glow). You can do this a number of times a day equal to your HD, the effect lasts 15 minutes per template in this class.
6. You can record a short message into your blast (it does no damage). When it strikes the target (no attack roll needed), they make a CHA save, on a success, they hear your message, on a failure they hear raving gibberish for 1d3 minutes.
7. You can form your Eldritch energy into a pole of any length up to 15' and and reasonable diameter, it is insubstantial to any creature besides yourself unless they pass a save against your CHA. Alternatively it can be formed into fully functional fishing gear.
8. Choose a small instrument, you can shape your Eldritch energy into this instrument, and are highly skilled at playing it, this does not translate to real versions of the same instrument.
