If you like characters with a bit of a dark side or an aura of mystery, you might want to play a DnD Warlock in your next game. While Wizards gain their arcane abilities from intense study and Sorcerers inherit them, Warlocks make pacts with powerful, usually mysterious entities. These can be literal deals with devils, but a Warlock is just as likely to have sworn an oath to an archfey or serve the interests of an elder god lurking beyond the boundaries of reality. If you want an example, think of Wyll from Baldur's Gate 3.
