[QUOTE="Ancalagon, post: 7456886, member: 23"] In my mind, he went 2-3 level of fighter, then got experimented on, then full warlock. I say 2-3 levels of fighter but I'm unsure about that 3rd level. It would be tempting to get that as eldrich knight (maybe this is what led him to believe that he and his mercs could take on the wizard?). I would use that level to get find familiar and absorb element. It would also give him a few "back up" spell slots if he ran out before the next short rest. His cantrip from that would be mending (to fix his armor) and either green flame blade or booming blade. On the other hand, that's now a 3 level dip... The familiar would be a bat, that he would use to scout and to see in the dark. I would use variant human to get a feat (GWM, or maybe PAM), and use armor of agathy a lot. I would use one of the warlock cantrips to get eldrich blast, but I wouldn't take any invocation for it. Others would probably be more utility - prestidigitation (to clean himself - he is ashamed of his leg and hates seeing it) - and maybe mage hand or minor image. As soon as possible he would take the invocation to take a second attack, and the spell counterspell (since he hates wizards). I think it would be a fun character, but it has two "weaknesses". One is that it only really comes "online" at level 8. The second is that it doesn't have the versatility that a college of sword/hexblade would have [/QUOTE]
