Essentially, the rules I used for these gifts were:

    Death before lvl 5 resulted in a Dark Power intercepting the PC's soul in the mist, giving them the option of resurrection with Stage 1 of their gift.
    At lvl 5, a PC can reach out to their Dark Power to receive Stage 1 their gift
    At lvl 7, a PC is asked by their Dark Power if they would like more power.
        If they say yes, gift progresses to Stage 2
        If no, the offer stays open.
    At lvl 9, it's the same as lvl 7, but gift progresses to Stage 3.
    At any point during this process, a character who has not received their gift yet can call upon their Dark Power and receive all the gifts their level allows
    At the Amber Temple, they can visit their Dark Power and choose to make a Pact, this unlocks the rest of their gift, but also may have a price to pay. It also condemns them to being trapped in The Domains of Dread.

Name	Gift title	Theme	Gift/lvl	Physical	Other
Dahlver-Nar, He of Many Teeth	The gift of many lives	Resurrection, at the cost of teeth	First: If you die, you are affected by a modified Reincarnate spell. Your new body only has 25% of its maxium hit points and you take 1d3 Con damage. Extended race list. If you have 0 or less Con after this you are unconscious (not dead) and you will regain 1 Con per hour until you have at least 1. If you Reincarnate, a tooth is lost (keep track, 32 to start with!). Lose most racial features but keep your ability scores. Gain +1d2 on an ability score appropriate to the new race as well as all other racial features. If a sentient non-undead creature dies within 5 ft of you, a faint outline of mist leaves the creature's body and enters your mouth and eyes, granting you a boon. Choose one: Inspiration 2d8 + lvl healing 1d8 + lvl temporary hit points If given upon death, instead revive the original body, your maximum HP is doubled for 1 hour and you gain full HP If given in an agreement, your maximum HP is doubled for 1 hour and you gain full HP and you may cast Revivify once without any material component during the next hour Second: Every time you lose a tooth to this ability, make a flat DC 11 check; on success the lost tooth becomes a tooth of Dahlver-Nar (DM's call) that you may reinsert, keep or give away. Any number of implanted teeth of Dahlver-Nar together count as ONE attuned item. If you Reincarnate, your new body gains 50% of its maxium hit points and you take 1 Con damage instead. You may take 2 Con damage instead of 1 to add or subtract up to 7 from the race selection roll. As an action, you may use your gift to Reincarnate someone else. First, lose a tooth and expend a Greater Tooth Component then your ability stops working until recharged. Then, the target is reincarnated as per the lower level of this ability. Following a long rest you may attempt to recharge it; make a flat DC 15 check. On a success, or after at most 5 long rests, the ability is recharged. Gain the ability to cast Inflict Wounds at will, up to spell level equal to 1/2 your character level. When you deal damage in this way, you deal the same amount of unpreventable necrotic damage to someone within 30 ft you consider an ally and you heal 1d10 hp and gain 1d10 temporary hp. If no ally is within reach or you so choose, you may instead choose to take the damage yourself; half the inflicted damage. Gain the ability to cast Life Transferrance at will, but the recepient receives one less d8 than inflicted.	First: You choose a tooth to give up, become heterochromatic with one eye of your old colour and one turning purple. The eyes stay if you are resurrected into a new body.
