Steps of the Fey
Level 3As a bonus action, you can teleport up to 30 feet to an unoccupied space you can see. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum once), and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.
Misty Escape
Level 6When you take damage, you can use your reaction to turn invisible and teleport up to 60 feet to an unoccupied space you can see. You remain invisible until the start of your next turn or until you attack or cast a spell. Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a short or long rest.
Beguiling Defenses
Level 10You are immune to being charmed. In addition, when another creature attempts to charm you, you can use your reaction to attempt to turn the charm back on that creature. The creature must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw against your warlock spell save DC or be charmed by you for 1 minute or until it takes damage.
Bewitching Magic
Level 14You can cast one enchantment or illusion spell from the warlock spell list at its lowest level without expending a spell slot. Once you cast a spell in this way, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest.
