D&D 5e (a kind of Pen and paper RPG) has a magic class that the source of their power is basically an I-O-U (I owe you) with a powerful entity, usually their patron.
It is not straight away clear what their patron wants, but it tends to be ominous, they might receive a “gift” now and then, or they may even be punished.
In any case, I find it funny that all the other classes put the work to learn magic, while warlocks just went to ask the worst guy in the neighborhood.
i have a character i dreamed up (along with a lot of people i’m sure) but have not found the right group to play with. they’re a warlock who is basically indiana jones and that idol they grab in scene 1 act 1 movie 1? whoopsie poopsie should not have touched that. and their patron wants to put all the idols to other patrons IN A MUSEUM! THEY BELONG IN A MUSEUM! idk i haven’t gotten that far.
I’m confused

Sorcerer: Oh this? ::manipulating unimaginable energies with casual grace::
IDK, my blood just does that. I think I got it from my dad.
Warlocks get their power from making a pact with a powerful being.

Same as Cleric, really. Just different kind of powerful being.
