[QUOTE="Miles Pilitus, post: 3061773, member: 41553"] I'm playing a Warlock in my current game, and type of character I'm playing is very much the Spawn type, someone sold to evil power who wants to try and destroy that power. To properly illustrate this, I wanted to take a prestige class that would give my character the Spawn feel. Many of Spawn's powers can already be done with the basic Warlock, so I wanted to throw a little more of a curve on the class. Here's my first draft of the class: Edgewalker The edgewalker is a person who lived his life on the edge of good and evil, never truly taking a side in the grand conflicts of the universe, in fact they might have not even believed in such a conflict. Then a potential edgewalker dies, where they are confronted with an embodiment of evil who offer them the choice to return to the world in service of them. Those who agree are returned to the world as Warlocks, agents of the Dark Powers. But there are people who fight against the darkness that they have been branded with, who fight becoming hell-spawn and instead decide to try and destroy their dark masters. They become edgewalkers, where they live not on a slippery slope, but the razor’s edge of the abyss.
