[QUOTE="Warpiglet-7, post: 9513894, member: 7025282"] I have a planned post…if work and life would allow…that speak to some of this in 2014… I have mostly played warlocks over the past 20 years. Often with a dip but not always. If you read everything written in the phb alone, you find a lot of space to play with. Your patron does/does not know you, you learn and grow vs are given power…the list goes on. The framework for a lot of options is there if your dm does not insist on one route vs another. I have a buoyed making up power sources, patrons etc and honestly the less proscriptive the better as far as I have been concerned. The he warlock is not so powerful that they need a o be constrained for balance and as such play the fiction you want in conjunction with the dm of course. Mine don’t care. My crazed dwarven blade pact might be serving the prince of lies. Or maybe [B]Kostchtchie…[/B] Whatever. It’s all good fun. Level 1, level 9…leaving the story open is a good thing. Leaving space to create is fun and not exactly abusable for balance or other considerations. I will read the 2024 phb but feel good about warlock fiction malleability as it is. [/QUOTE]
