Well, it IS a daily, and a multi-classed fighter or ranger would only be able to use it once per day, and at the cost of a feat at level 30 and switching out their class's Level 29 power.

Like Pyromancer said, they are daily. Dragon's Might worries me just a bit, but being level 29, it has a lot of stiff competition.

Exactly. So, it IS balanced.

Just had an Idea! What is there was a Vestige pact? The warlock would be bound to the vestiges, but mechanically, there would just pretty much be a power for each vestige. Anyone willing to take it on?

I have begun a pact of psionic flavor. The "Psionic Pact" would be with ancient beings of the mind. I feel the powers would be of psychic power, overcoming the physical with the power of the mind, and trickery (as like illusions).

Any comments? I have begun writing powers, but wanted some feedback before I went to far.

yes. Fey pact.


also: l337 pact.

You have forged a pact with the strangest of beings. They use odd technologies to engage in their dark work. You are not so much beholden to one as you are now part of a group, a great big Anonymous Internet Hate Machine.

l33t pact: You gain the Computer Hacker Argot pact power. Add "computer jargon" to your languages known. Any creature with your Warlock's curse that you attempt to communicate with that does not have speak language(computer jargon) is dazed (save ends). You can now use desktop PCs, laptop PCs, and mobile computing devices as arcane implements.

Phishing E-Mail At-Will Attack Power(l33t pact)
Arcane * Implement
Standard Action Ranged 10
Target: One enemy in range
Charisma vs. Will
Hit: Deal 1d6 + Charisma modifier damage and steal ten times the damage in gold pieces.
Special: If your intelligence is higher than the target's, deal extra damage equal to your intelligence modifier.

Psionic pact is pretty good, but A Vestige Pact, wouldn't that be awesome?

@proin, *just shakes head and sighs*

Pyro, did you get around to making that pact encyclopaedia thread? If so could you ost a link here for me please?

For my homebrew setting im adapting the warlock class to a divine striker rather than arcane and will need a pact for each 'theology' in the setting. Because the setting spans quater of the galaxy, the pacts, or Oaths/Vows, are more broad in their scope. Some of the HB pacts i've seen on this thread have already filled some of the slots, but not all. In case anyone is inspired i'll note below what pacts i'll need/will create/will use.
Theologies Show

Ancestor worship: is a practice based on the belief that deceased family members have a continued existence, take an interest in the affairs of the world, and/or possess the ability to influence the fortune of the living. All cultures attach ritual significance to the passing of loved ones, but this is not equivalent to ancestor veneration.[1] The goal of ancestor veneration is to ensure the ancestors' continued well-being and positive disposition towards the living and sometimes to ask for special favours or assistance
Quickleaf's ancestor pact fits perfectly here

Animism:commonly refers to a religious belief that souls or spirits exist in animals, plants and other entities, in addition to humans. Animism may also attribute souls to natural phenomena and geographic features. Often these entities must be placated by offerings in order to gain favours, or even worshipped.
Animism in this sense contrasts with polytheism (the worship of various gods), in that animistic worship is of minor, local deities, whereas polytheism is the worship of major deities.
Fey pact!

Apotheosism: is the glorification of an individual to a divine level. Followers of this religion worship their rulers; past or present, as gods. The Empress of the Human Empire is probably the best example of this within the setting.
?

Draconic: Dragons are often held to have major spiritual significance in various religions and cultures around the galaxy. In many cultures dragons were, and in some cultures still are, revered as representative of the primal forces of nature, religion and the universe. They are associated with wisdom—often said to be wiser than humans—and longevity.
I need to sit down and give a decent read through of the couple of different dragon pacts on this thread and decide what i like

Genetatheism: Is the search for god through genetics. It is a theology that the scientifically minded often adhere to, the search for the divine within the mythical 'perfect genetic code’ this is displayed differently in different cultures; some through breeding, where the church chooses couplings of there follower (akin to the bene-geserit pursuit of the Kwisatz Haderach). While others are more impatient; a small cult known as 'the Seekers' are often seen as dangerous fanatic, who are constantly manipulating their own genes in order to 'perfect' themselves.
?

Mechatheism: Is the worship of a machine god, or the pursuit of god through machines
?

Monotheism: is the belief that only one deity exists. Creator and guardian (or tyrant), any other figure within the religion are not divine.
Either the Infernal pact or Rikiji's Astral pact would fit here, but it seems unfair to give one theology a choise of two pacts when the others don't

Polytheism: is the belief in or worship of multiple deities, such as gods and goddesses. These are usually assembled into a pantheon, along with their own mythologies and rituals. Polytheists do not usually worship all the gods equally, but are monolatrists, specialising in the worship of one particular deity. Other polytheists can be kathenotheists, worshiping different deities at different times.
?

Totemism: is a religious belief that is frequently associated with shamanistic religions. The totem is usually an animal or other naturalistic figure that spiritually represents a group of related people such as a clan.
I've recently seen a beast pact (allowing an animal companion) somewhere in this forum; might work.

Universatheim: Is closely related to Animism, but rather than the belief in the souls of smaller forms such as animals, plants and rocks; Universatheism believes that each living planet or star has a soul, and that the life that exist within it are a part of the life-force. This belief often expands to include star systems, even galaxies and the universe itself as entities with souls and a form of consciousness (all be it far removed from our own).
Star pact
