Warlock
Base Class: Warlock
Sometimes the spirit of an animal will persist far beyond it's natural years, and develop a growing consciousness and awareness. After thousands of years, they fall into a dormant state and eventually ascend to a higher state of being. During this transformation, these spirits are extremely vulnerable and must protect themselves from others who would steal their power. An ancient beast spirit may willingly seal itself into the body of a loyal follower, or it may be forcefully sealed into an unknowing sacrifice. Either way, the two souls are irreversibly intertwined in a very powerful way, and over time the Warlock is influenced by the power of the beast inside them. They gradually becoming feral and show more animalistic traits.
