Could we please have a non evil/ammoral pact for Warlocks? :)

[QUOTE="Kaisoku, post: 3994018, member: 58447"] Who says it has to be a Good or Evil Warlock? I just like the idea of a person who steals or makes pacts to get his powers rather than trains, or prays for them. For example... I've had the idea of a campaign setting here the spellcasters gained their magic through pacts with Elementals from the four elemental forces (fire, water, earth, and air). From the sounds of it, Warlocks were to be the perfect example of this and I was looking forward to it. Now elementals aren't on the latest list of Warlock pact makers. So it'll have to be something I write up myself I guess, no biggie. I can see a Warlock gaining powers from a Good source in the same way. It's just another source, and doesn't necessarily have to be about being Good or Evil aligned. If anything, the Warlock sounds like the most unaligned, being that they specifically wouldn't be praying or using their powers for the god explicitly. Also, there's apparently room for outsiders that aren't specifically aligned to Good or Evil, so maybe there's an Angel or Demon that's willing to do something "outside the rules". Thinking of examples such as in the movie Constantine, or the concept and story behind the game Painkiller, etc. People using powers and rituals that are from a Good or Evil source, without being good or evil themselves...
