Forsaken Aerialist

Updated November 1, 2026

SYSTEM NOTE: FORSAKEN AERIALIST

You fell once, badly, and something caught you on the way down. Now you curse your enemies, weigh them down, and drift above the consequences. The audience loves a tragic backstory, especially one that can fly.

Parent class: Warlock
Feature levels: 3, 6, 10, 14

Features

Level 3 — Forsaken Magic

Bane and Feather Fall are always prepared.

Level 3 — Weight of Failure

Once on your turn, when a creature fails a saving throw against your Warlock spell, reduce its Speed by 10 feet until the start of your next turn.

Level 6 — Unsteady Ground

When a creature you can see within 60 feet succeeds on a saving throw against your Warlock spell, use your Reaction to subtract 1d4, potentially changing the result. PB uses.

Level 10 — Untethered

As a Bonus Action, gain Fly Speed 30 feet for 1 minute. Once per Long Rest. You fall if the effect ends without support.

Level 14 — Profane Burden

When Weight of Failure applies, its target also cannot take Reactions until the start of your next turn and takes 2d8 Psychic damage. PB uses.

Notes

This is a curse-and-positioning interpretation, not a claim that the source supplies a complete class progression.
