Celestial Patron Features
Celestial Spells
Level 3You gain additional spells that count as warlock spells for you: Cure Wounds, Guiding Bolt (level 1); Flaming Sphere, Lesser Restoration (level 3); Daylight, Revivify (level 5); Guardian of Faith, Wall of Fire (level 7); Greater Restoration, Flame Strike (level 9).
Healing Light
Level 3You gain a pool of d6s that you can use to heal creatures. The number of dice in the pool equals 1 + your warlock level. As a bonus action, you can heal a creature you can see within 60 feet, spending dice from the pool (up to your Charisma modifier, minimum one die). The creature regains hit points equal to the total rolled. You regain all expended dice when you finish a long rest.
Radiant Soul
Level 6You gain resistance to radiant damage. When you cast a spell that deals fire or radiant damage, you can add your Charisma modifier to one damage roll of that spell against one of its targets.
Celestial Resilience
Level 10You gain temporary hit points whenever you finish a short or long rest. The temporary hit points equal your warlock level + your Charisma modifier. Additionally, up to five creatures of your choice within 30 feet also gain temporary hit points equal to half your warlock level + your Charisma modifier.
Searing Vengeance
Level 14When you would make a death saving throw at the start of your turn, you can instead spring back to your feet with radiant energy. You regain hit points equal to half your hit point maximum, then stand up. Each creature of your choice within 30 feet takes 2d8 + your Charisma modifier in radiant damage and is blinded until the end of your current turn. Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a long rest.
