The Warlock is the quintessential battle mage. Through a complex ceremony, a Warlock becomes attuned to the power of magic, which allows them to alter the very fabric of magic itself. A Warlock is a practitioner of high magic; trained to use low magic to its fullest potential. Warlocks use the power of magic in a chaotic manner; they are not wielders of chaos. It is in how they use their low magic, in a personal and individual way that denotes their alleged tie to chaos.

On the battlefield, a Warlock’s magic is seldom matched, and rarely defeated. Off the battlefield, the Warlock’s skills and knowledge are valuable and coveted. Some Warlocks believe all this power comes with a price…

A proficient Warlock is able to augment low magic in order to increase its effectiveness. Some of the more popular feats of a Warlock involve punching through any low magic spell defense, casting a spell without reciting a verbal, doubling the damage or duration of spells, and casting a spell at a target without throwing a spell packet.

Warlockery is one of two direct paths from the Mage Basic Career. They are not disbared from any list except Spell Singing, however learning Sorcery will have extreme negative impacts on the character due to the conflicting Law and Chaos.
