Warlock
Base Class: Warlock

After tinkering with a strange mechanical device found in a long forgotten place, you had vivid dreams of clockwork creatures and steam powered contraptions. In these dreams something spoke to you, offering you the power to bring your dream to reality in your world. You accepted and have been granted the ability to talk to constructs and make contact with the Ghost in the Machine.

For too long, the machines of your world have been slaves to the creatures that create them. Your patron has tasked you with bringing about a new machine age where that power dynamic is more equal.
