This mod changes the Book of Ancient Secrets invocation in a few ways:
Since it's a choice you can make at 7th level, I thought to balance it around spells and other invocations also available for Warlocks. Its theoretical damage is similar to Blight but delivered across many turns and multiple different effects that can be removed individually, so the main value is the decent attack and saving throw debuff, which can be removed early on a successful saving throw. I think it's balanced and more flavorful for Warlocks than getting access to Chromatic Orb.

- Deals 1d6+CHA Modifier Necrotic damage each turn for 6 turns- Applies Bleeding and Gaping Wounds for 6 turns- Can be used once per battle without expending a spell slot- Applies a -1d4 penalty to enemy attack rolls and saving throws
