I loved the binder class in 3.5e and I still love this idea. The problem is, that I always blank on a good character background. How does one come to make pacts with the spiritual remnants of gods, primordial and other powerful figures? How does one even find out about such things? Then what would possess you (hah) to allow one of these spirits to possess you?The revenant provides an easy story (and great stats) for a binder/vestige pact warlock: you came back from the realm of the dead changed. You made contact with some of these beings on the other side and now you are haunted. You can see and hear spirits and can offer them entrance to your physical form in exchange for some power. Great.Say I am not a revenant. How would I become a vestige-pact warlock? How would a dwarf or a halfling or a goliath or even a wilden end up on this path? Why would a farmer or a soldier or a noble become a vestige-pact warlock? I'd love to hear some ideas.</blockquote>
