[QUOTE="Arctic Wolf, post: 6440969, member: 6686199"] Hello everyone, I am here today because I am sort of stumped on how to come up with different types of warlocks and what should be related to their powers in a rpg I am working on as a side project. Just wanted to ask for some opinions with what I have and what I can do to make it better. Here is what I have so far: Demon: based on the 7 sins; wrath, lust, gluttony, pride, sloth, greed, envy. This type of warlock has a personality change depending on which one they pick. Alien: based on just strange stuff in general. I saw an anime called Darker than Black that had an interesting take where you had a sort of remuneration that you had to do before you could use your power or had a time-frame. Was also thinking of using fetishes and phobias that deal with sanity/insanity. This one needs a bit more work. Angelic: based on the seven virtues:[URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chastity"]chastity[/URL][COLOR=#252525][FONT=sans-serif], temperance, charity, [/FONT][/COLOR][URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diligence"]diligence[/URL][COLOR=#252525][FONT=sans-serif], [/FONT][/COLOR][URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patience"]patience[/URL][COLOR=#252525][FONT=sans-serif], [/FONT][/COLOR][URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kindness"]kindness[/URL][COLOR=#252525][FONT=sans-serif], and [/FONT][/COLOR][URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humility"]humility[/URL]. Would affect your personality and how you view others. Devil: Was thinking of using sadistic or masochistic but I know devils historically have tempted mortals with the "deal of the devil", so might go that route. Elemental: Not sure with this one, might make it like the alien one but based on stuff you need to do for the element you make a deal with. Fey: Was thinking of making this one similar to a sorcerer but with some stipulations. Spirit: Was thinking of letting the spirit possess you and use your body. Thanks for any feedback and if you need anymore information just ask. [/QUOTE]
