Warlock Patron - The Toymaker

 

Name: The Toymaker

Theme: A mysterious, ageless patron of gifts and judgment. Known by many names—Saint Nick, Father Winter, the Red Judge, the Kindly Maker—the Toymaker rewards generosity, punishes cruelty, and binds souls with contracts wrapped in cheer.

This patron isn’t nice—it’s benevolent but absolute, like winter itself.

At 3rd level, your patron gifts you a wondrous conveyance tied to generosity, travel, and miraculous delivery.

When the sleigh is summoned, it is pulled by spectral magical beasts (reindeer, owlbears, goats, or other festive creatures chosen when you gain this boon).
