Fun fact I can confirm it genuinely works as I legitimately used a similar (base) strat to start a legit cult in Nebraska Iowa Missouri Michigan and Ohio
As a resident Nebraskan, I have personally joined three cults by accident. I hereby stamp this with my official seal. This character concept is Certified Midwestern.
Look at Tales from the Stinky Dragon. It's a DND podcast, where the second campaign features "Chipany", a kobold assassin from fantasy Wisconsin. Super friendly retired assassin looking for his missing wife.
Background for a warlock: -A noble make a pact with a demon -The demon is dyslexic a write your name instead of the noble -The contract apear between of your papperwork and you sign it without read it You are now a warlock and as funny side effect allergic to magic
I actually came up with a twist of the Lucan Blood Hunter that is basically this. Essentially the idea is that instead of being a werewolf you have a demon sharing your body, so you can sometimes call upon this demon to grant you demon features (horns, claws, maybe a tail) as well as maybe some temporary fire or necrotic damage boost BUT when you get under half Hp you have to start making constitution (or wisdom, I haven’t decided yet) saving throws to avoid the demon taking over your shared body in attempts to save you and itself
I came up with this idea just today, a merfolk that came upon a powerful creature and had a great desire to go to the land, they traded their voice for a pair of legs and was gifted a talisman which doesn’t particularly allow them to speak but gives the verbal component for any spell as needed, unless your patron does not approve of the use of the spell
Well they're two different characters, so the build in total is both alignments, except it's only one alignment at a time. (coming from someone who's currently playing a chaotic evil fiend warlock fiend possessing a lawful good halfling that doesn't yet know they're a sorcerer, constantly switching between who's in control using a d100 with a mod in flux)
Curses Totem's operative word is "creatures", and since anywhere other than the battlefield creature CARDS aren't considered to actually be creatures, they're unaffected by Cursed Totem.
Patron: What sacrifice have you brought me? Midwest Warlock: I brought a nice macaroni salad! Patron: WHAT? No bleating lambs or lost souls? Midwest Warlock: It has little red pepper chunks in it... Patron: Sold.
CN Half-elf Just a normal street thug, until he was made into a celestial warlock now forced into being a 'good guy' because he was the last living descendant of a great elven hero.
See, mine is a halfling who accidentally found a crystal, which has made you crazy, and the voices in your head have convinced you that they are your deity and that you are a warlock, even though you're a sorcerer with the crystal as your arcane focus. So you carry around this crystal constantly talking to it thinking that it is how your God is speaking to you and anybody who says otherwise dies. You're not crazy, they are...
Damn, I don't get why people always make their back stories so dramatic. Like even if a campaigns serious you don't need some tragic back story. I once played a warlock who was just really into dragonborn women but wasn't anything special. So he started training to be stronger, then he was way over confident. Went to try and flirt and got tricked into signing a contract becoming a warlock. You could litterally just say your bard thought it would be funny. Or be really secretive and mysterious about your origins only to eventually reveal that they're really mundane.
this is very funny for me because i have just made a warlock but his story is not this it , i came up with it on spot that my dragonborn (flavored to be the same as half dragons) who by pure chance was the same color as the dragon that is the main focus for the start of the story and my character seeing if that dragon is a relative of his
Ope, sorry! and Gahhh! Are perfect representations of a midwesterns flaws. As a midwesterner myself, i here by stamp this with friendly neighbor approval dont cha know. Also you need to add 15 to 30 minute good byes as a flaw, its not the midwest if you dont start a convo with 'howdy neighbor' and fail to the end the convo in a timly manner.
Dude, rules for ACTUAL demons, which, would be assumed to be applied, for a Midwesterner to exist, make no sense in DND. DND in the modern release is so divorced from actual mythology, it makes NO sense to include things from the modern world in the setting. Seriously, I'm starting to wonder if I should try and make a mythologically accurate adventure path & sorce book, just to make people understand how many souls of children killed by there parents during the grips of infantile amnesia, they have been killing as cannon fodder. : (
@@SalviHippo well long story short when I told people in my catholic school I was trying to fight religious discrimination in the school they thought they were being helpful....
