He's going to be a saving throw monkey. However having played through exactly one combat I can't really tell you how effective they are. My general impressions.. The curse is cool, but the DC is too low. Their spell list mostly blows chunks and almost entirely fails to intersect with their crappy bonus feat selection. Also they are the most screwed of any class EVER if they violate their alignment. At least Paladins can atone. OTOH they get mettle. The skill list isn't bad at all. They have nifty flavor and present some interesting multi-class options.As a straight class? I think they need tweaking. Change the spell list and/or the bonus feat list. Another option would be to make them the fight oriented warlock, with whom the share a lot of flavor. So give them one each Least, Lesser, Greater and Dark invocations where they normally get 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th level spells. Standard eldritch blast but make it hit normal AC not touch ac. Obviously the bonus feat list would nead some tweaking as well with that variant.Just my 2¢</blockquote>
