[QUOTE="Bawylie, post: 8185508, member: 6776133"] There is no difference between a cleric and a warlock (and a Druid). Each enters an agreement with a powerful entity that bestows power on the disciple in exchange for some service of some kind. A patron who is tied to a specific location would want adherents who are NOT tied to that location so that it can advance its goals and pursue its interests remotely. A River God in your world may well be interested in what comes in upriver or what goes out downriver. A Forest God might want a keen eye on civilizational advancement. A Druid is simply a cleric who’s God(s) are various nature spirits. A warlock is a cleric who’s patron is a Demon. A cleric is a warlock who’s god is a Patron. It’s really all the same. “I get powers from a supernatural being and I have to do some stuff for them with those powers, but also whatever I want to do so long as it doesn’t make them mad.” [/QUOTE]
