It's the same kind of difference between forming a pact with a demon or being a cleric or paladin of Asmodeus. And in this case "Boon of Souls" would apply to destroying fiendish beings or somesuch, assuming the BoS applies to anything but a fiendish pact anyways.EDIT: I think part of the problem is the word 'pact' itself, and it's connotations. Dealing with celestials would be called an oath, with fey it could be called a binding, etc. Anyways, the point of this thread isn't so see what the warlock will or won't be by the rules, just speculation on what direction people will take it. And trust me, a dozen celestial warlocks will pop up in a manner of weeks after 4e is released.</blockquote>
