[QUOTE="Quickleaf, post: 4195974, member: 20323"] How could an angelic pact warlock work? * Yathos, a repentant evil-doer, is approached by Angel of Penance to change his ways, and agrees to do as the angel says, becoming a warlock. While the Angel fully intends to lead Yathos down the path of righteousness as a cleric/paladin, the Angel uses Yathos to accomplish its goals until that time - the path of a mortal's willing transformation is a slow one. Yathos is charged with convincing/tricking the wicked into acts of self-mortification and devotion to show sorrow for their wrongdoing. * Jherac, a troubled clergyman, is imprisoned when he violates the tenets of his church by advising laypeople to revolt against an oppressive patriarch. In prison he is approached by an Angel of Vengeance to do the will of his god outside the hidebound institutional church and lay low the oppressive patriarch. Little does the Angel reveal that it is dissatisfied with service to Jherac's god and believes an age of bloodshed is necessary to purify the land of wickedness, and it seeks to use Jherac to usher in that age. As Jherac gathers power against the patriarch, he slowly begins to realize the true intentions of the angel, and must make a choice. * Miranda, a shepherd's wise daughter, retrieves water from a desert cave when an Angel of Liberty approaches her to emancipate her tribe from slavery to the witch-king. Taking it as her sacred duty, Miranda tries to convince her tribe to travel to a promised land while conducting raids to recover enslaved family members. Unattached to a deity in the wake of a god's death, the Angel of Liberty supports the rights of all beings to choose their own destiny, even the charmed servants of the witch-king who may very well decide to continue serving their magnanimous lord. Will Miranda care to emancipate her tribes' oppressor? And what happens when the Angel of Liberty's true agenda is revealed, to free a beloved devil from hell? [/QUOTE]
