Sweet!
Duuuuuuuuuuude! ... Thx 
For my previously mentioned gunslinger warlock, I'm kinda stuck trying to figure out how to fluff it.
That's a dirty joke waiting to happen. But I won't do it, despite the temptation! 
The best idea I've come up with so far is that he fires a phantom shot at the victim, and a thin haze of sulphrous smoke engulfs the target, remaining until one or the other is dead.
Hmm, how about instead of a smoky/sulfurous haze surrounding the target, a brilliant white cross appears on your target's body, marking him with your "Judgment" bullet (Warlock's Curse).
On second thought, since you have struck a pact with a cosmic entity, why not a mark that looks like the sword in the following pic. A cross shape with a star within circle emblem around the hilt.

Personally, I like the idea of having him flick his wrist, causing the chamber to break open and have a single shell fly out, end over end, and have it strike the target in the center of their forehead, casing first, leaving your master's sigil there.

Antina Ke Kor, Infernal Warlock/Cleric/Divine Oracle
Warlock's Curse(Mark of Kor)
Burning red runes appear on the most vulnerable parts of the target's body, but only Anti and the Target can see them.
Shadow Walk(Arcane Shield)
Visible red energy circle around Anti's body, obscuring her form.
Dark One's Blessing(Blood Shield)
The red energy around Anti's body begins to take a solid form, appearing to be dried [enemy slain's race] blood.
Eldritch Blast(Eldritch Bomb)
The nearby heat swirls away, gathering in a burning orange orb centered in Anti's hands, she tosses it towards her enemy...
Hit: The orb explodes is a blast of arcane power, returning the heat to the environment.
Miss: The enemy nimbly dodges the incoming orb which explodes uselessly behind them, returning the heat to the environment.
Hellish Rebuke
A ball of pure red flame appears in Anti's hand, she throws it at her enemy,
Hit:it bursts infront of him, momentarily covering his body with flame
Extra Damage: blue fire shoots forth from the enemy's mouth.(or other suitable orifice)
Miss:the ball explodes into thin smoke, which forms a frowning imp face.
Fiery Bolt(Magma Spear)
A tiny portal to hell appears on the ground and a molten hot spear shoot forth, Anti catches it and with a spin hurls it at a foe...
Hit:the thin spear barely touches it's target, but noticable burns where it did.
Miss:a second tiny portal appears between her foe's feat, the spear is sucked back into hell, without even glancing Anti's enemy
Critical Hit: The spear hits the enemy straight out, molten liquid splatting the target before exploding into nothingness
Coldfire Vortex
A tiny portal opens infront of Anti's enemies, suddenly the entire area around then is bathed in incandescent blue flames, sending chills through the air when the vortex closes, [enemies who were hit] appear [covered in ice or burns] but [enemies who were missed] appear unhindered.
Armor of Agathys(Armor of Kor)
As written.
Iron Spike of Dis
A stalagmite rises from the ground and explodes, the dust quickly clears revealing a metallic pointed shaft, Anti grasp the shaft and hurls it at her enemy
Hit: The shafts explodes into razorsharp spikes and dig into the target's flesh, leaving it immobile.
Miss: The shaft cuts across the enemy's torso, leaving a wicked looking gash.
Ethereal Stride(Smoke Shield)
Anti disappears in a blast of black smoke, reappearing nearby in another burst, the smoke mixing in with her normal arcane shield.
Shield Shades(Shadow Shield)
This depends on the attack, but let's assume a basic spear attack.
Suddenly a dupilicate of Anti rises from the ground, the spear thrusts straight through the duplicate to explodes in a puff of black smoke.
That's all her Warlock stuff.
I use the second names interchangeably with the original spells usually.

Okay, I used my idea for the Warlock's Curse last session, and it was awesome. Here is how it went. My feylock's Curse manifested through a branding iron (rod implement) that I gestured at my targets.   Then a reddish sigil appeared on the targets' foreheads, opening the way for her power.  The end ...?  Pictures say more than mere words, no? :evillaugh

There is a star pact warlock, in the Eberron campaign I am running, who is the daughter of a traveling fortune teller and grew up with a bond to the rings of Syberis. She uses a family heirloom, an ancient Xendrik boomerang with a dragon shard at it's center, as her pact blade. Eldric Blast. Holds the boomerang around it's middle, and gestures as if holding it up for show to her target. Energy glows from all five points of the boomerang, and a single line of energy traces from one point to another, forming a star pattern and then firing the blast from it's center point. Dire Radiance. She throws the boomerang at the target and it hovers high above them, spinning and building a blinding pulse of energy before raining down a blast on the targert. Dreadful Word She whispers softly into her boomerang, then throws it at the target. It circles about the victims head, delivering the terrible secret. Dreadstar She flings the boomerang at her target. It weaving about them madly, firing blast upon blast of arcane energy across their body, interlocking around the area to form a glowing cage that prevents them from moving from their square. Frigid Darkness As the boomerang flies towards it's target it seems to drag a line of her own shadow with it. This dark essence mists with the depths of coldness it contains, and as the boomering flies about it's victim, the shadow envelopes them like a growing ribbon, wrapping about their body and moving about their face, chilling their soul and unsettling them to the point of distraction. She is definitely having fun with it, especially since she took on a multiclass of wizard for some AoE spells.

Actually half-eladrin and found as a babe on the shores of Xendrik with the boomering wrapped with her. Long back story, that the character is not even aware of, though the player is.

As to the warlock curse concept, I was playing with a concept based on the mysteries of the universe idea of a star pact and came up with this.
Warlocks Curse: Catches the gaze of the target with her own, exchanging a fleeting image of universal truth. So soul shattering is the knowledge, that the astral form of the target begins to slightly tear from it's mortal shell. This form, a second shadow or double image, seems to mimic the future movements of its mortal frame mere moments before they occur.
Basically, if you've seen Chronicles of Riddick, picture the way the leader of the Necromongers moves when in combat.

That movie was just awesome. Remember Aereon (Dench) the air elemental? The way she disappears and reappears while moving is just great. Now THAT's a Misty Step. :D
