We are proud to announce the release of our newest class – Warlocks. This release is courtesy of biscuitWizard (https://github.com/biscuitWizard) who generously created the code for the class.

Description: Blessed with a supernatural heritage, a Warlock endeavors to master the perilous magic that courses through their veins. Unlike Sorcerers and Wizards who rely on spells to wield arcane magic, Warlocks possess the ability to invoke powerful magic through sheer force of will. The burning font of dark magic within them grants them resistance to many forms of attack and empowers them with formidable strength. Through rigorous training, Warlocks learn to harness their power to perform a select number of specialized attacks and techniques known as invocations. Though they may lack the versatility of sorcerers or wizards, Warlocks make up for it with their superior toughness and resilience. By tapping into their innate magical abilities with unyielding determination and willpower, a Warlock can accomplish feats such as supernatural stealth, beguiling the weak-minded, and unleashing blasts of Eldritch power upon their foes.
