I played in a campaign a half-demon who must fight the minions of his demionic father who was a demon prince. This campaign ended before the concept behind my character could full revealed.I have an idea for another character who must fight his nature. An evil mother sold his unborn child to the shadows (or shadow godess) so the child got the shadow template. He is not evil, but he likes the shadows etc...Sadly I think your concept is only good for an NPC and not as a PC because this concept will not survive an adventure. You want to know why?Your concept has two weaknesses.Look at the statistics:You want to play an half-celestial tiefling warlock.The attributes:Tiefling: +2 Dexterity, +2 Intelligence, –2 CharismaHalf-Celestial: Str +4, Dex +2, Con +4, Int +2, Wis +4, Cha +4so you get: Str +4, Dex +4, Con +4, Int +4, Wis +4, Cha +2You also get some neat other special abilities. This sounds cool but for your boosted aattributes and abilities you get your LA, the first weakness.A tiefling has LA +1 and an half-celestial a LA +4, so your warlock level 1 starts in a party of level 6 characters. He must survive CR 6 challenges. Spellcasters do not gain much advantages from attributes boost through templates as fighting class through ST or Con boost. IMHO Spellcasters need levels instead of LAs through templates.The second weakness is that your GM must allow the warlock. Not every GM owns the Complete Arcane book or a GM may think the warlock is overpowered and does not allow it.</blockquote>
