I have this fantasy where the NSA gets hacked and everybody's porn preferences get leaked at once. Since it's everyone, society just accepts it, the stigmas fade, and America becomes just a little bit less puritanical.

When we net these with everything regressive that happened, we can see that gini coefficient has gone up nonetheless.

Does that mean they took Pact of the Chain? If so, then it's a class feature that's supposed to be powerful. Maybe this signature trick makes their patron impressed, jealous, or bored...

They passed up on Pact of the Blade, so when they do get attacked, they're more vulnerable.

Add some environmental hazards and AoE attacks. Make the fires spread out of control and become a threat of their own. Tempt them with explosive barrels in dangerous places. Familiars die easily, but are cheap to resummon.
