Any spell casting spirits?

Yes I like the idea of Warlocks, they sound a cool class. I just wanted more of a 'skill monkey' mundane character but much prefer the Bard's spells.

I wouldn't want to play a spell caster but like the utility and fun that spell casters get.

I am not a dnd player, this will be my first game. Classes are good and flavorful but I would prefer to make my own really. Your multiclass idea sounds good but as I'm not that familiar with 5e rules I would rather reskin something than try and force character creation rules to fit requirements.

Having said that, I'm off to read about pact chain warlocks.

Obviously you'll need your DM's permission, but if I were doing this I would just treat it as a reskin. The rules would work the same, but in the game world your bard summons a ghost with the tome and it casts the spells. I wouldn't treat it as a creature that can be killed, nor would it get its own actions.

I think you might be right. Sometimes simplicity is the best option. I think for combat this would be the best idea.

For everything else I could have a bit more flexibility maybe. Using the ghost thing for roleplaying.
