As an outsider - can someone explain the warlock one to me?
Warlocks make pacts with powerful beings to get their magic, mostly demons
Thank you, and thank you to all the others who answered. I am now more cluefull
Ironically, a bunch of their potential patrons are typed as outsiders...
Hey now, they also pact with Fae, ancient outsiders, and even Celestials!
Or the fucking sword
Does this mean that if I hire a wizard to do magic stuff for me, I'm a warlock?
it's more like renting the magic from the wizard.
Warlocks obtain their powers by making a pact with and otherworldly entity (Archfeys, Demons, Lovecrafttian horrors, etc...)
A warlock gets its magic by forming a pact with a magical entity like a god, devil or powerful demon.
Sorry, can't. I'm only humanoid and don't have a way to change that.
