So, I personally think Warlock is the best class, but I was wondering what you all think is, byfar, the most fun Warlock character you've ever made? No, you can't roleplay as Alastor, that doesn't count-

I remember I made a Warlock of the Undead, and made him Russian. He would try so hard to understand the mortals around him, and try to relate, but he wasn't always successful...
I've got a Hexblade who rolled pretty bad for stats. INT of 6 and WIS of 9. His patron *is* his sword; a fragment of the aspect of a minor diety. There are times where the sword controls him like a thrall, but often he is doing good deeds as a Forest Gump-like hero who talks like Kevin Malone from the office. The world is real complex to this warlock, so there is some comic relief, but also he just views the challenges at face value like a twelve year-old child. Been hella fun to play.
Haven't tried this out yet but I have a plan to play as a Celestial Pact of the Blade Warlock Mountain Dwarf that pretends or is duped into thinking he is a Paladin. Won't work too well before level 5 though. But once level 5 rolls along he can run around in Plate Armor (after taking the Heavily Armored feat) and smite things (Eldritch Smite) with a Great Sword while healing people with his fake Lay on Hands (Healing Light).
One I'm tinkering with I've termed "the walking Flamestrike". Its an Scourge Aasimar + Efreeti Genie/Pact of Blade Warlock aiming to get Radiant Consumption (aasimar ability) + Spirit Shroud + Fire Shield up and walk around once per long rest doing lots of aura damage whilst hopefully using a double bladed scimitar for a weapon, flavouring the scimitar as a copy of the Efreeti Genies favourite weapon.

* Need a character idea? Search for "Rob76's Unused" in the Story and Lore section.
I built a character based on Blackadder, from the classic TV show, as a Warlock. He was designed for fun more than anything else, but his political scheming aspect came through well as a Warlock build. He had a Familiar called Baldric, who kept suggesting cunning plans....
He was a wizard school dropout who decided he still wanted power but didn't want to grind it out so he found a book in the schools library and made a deal. I was able to RP his as a wizard, with the dm's knowledge, for over a year before everyone else figured it out.
Pardon me for asking, but I don't know what Blackadder is, or the show he's from- What is it about? Sounds interesting
Blackadder is a comedy made by the BBC here in the UK, you can find clips and some documentaries about it on you tube etc.
The basic premise is series one follows Prince Edmund in 1485 and follows his machinations to become more powerful, series two follows Blackadder as a noble in the court of of Queen Elizabeth 1, series 3 find Blackadder now a servant to the Prince of Wales in the late 18th/early 19th century and the final series follows Captain Blackadder in the trenches of WW1. Throughoutr each series he is accompanied by his "dogsbody" servant Baldrick. Series 4 has a particularly poignant ending.
A slight side note the character of Ciaphias Cain from the Warhammer 40k series of books is also based on Balackadder as well.

Now all we need is a College of Lore Bard in the same party and it'd be a soap opera

Good god, both of those sound very, very chaotic to an extent that I love it-

Warlock at level 10 that can deal 230 damage on AVERAGE. I haven’t played with it yet but I calculated the damage and it is broken
DM: “Who’s your patron?”
Warlock: “Ummm”
DM: “Hurry Up”
Warlock: “yOu”
