### Warlock Vessel

#### **Eldritch Presence, Precepts**

**Eldritch Presence**

Eldritch presence is fire lying within leone and longer it burns stronger it gets.

**Precepts**

**Precept of Pain**

Leone marks an enemy with a fire emblem which can be activated by him or his allies, if the emblem activates it catches on fire and burns the creature it was on, if it doesn't activate it forces it self back into Leone giving minimum damage.

**Precept of Protection**
Leone focuses on the fire burning inside him and creates a connection with one of his allies giving them protection with the risk of sharing all the suffering they can have but he is not afraid of taking that risk since he lost so many allies before and doesn't want that to happen again.

**Precept of Precision**
Leone's or one of his ally's eyes burn brightly with a fire giving them a more clear vision to attack but in the case of attack missing this fire returns back to Leone forcing it's way in damaging him in the process.

**Precept of Promise**

Small moths made of fire appears around Leone, these moths are manifestations of Leone's promise for glory and victory, if he succeeds on defeating his target each moth flies towards an ally healing them, if he fails on defeating his target the moths fly towards Leone's eye and block him from doing anything for a while.

#### Invocations

The active invocation is chosen at the end of a short or long rest.

You may only have one invocation at a time and may know two invocations to start.

**Fate Thief**

When his affinity with fire got stronger Leone realized that everyone has a fire burning in them and with a little try he was able to control not only the fire inside him but the fire inside others as well. he can feed the fire inside his allies and steal the fire inside his enemies, but this proces requires a high level of concentration if Leone gets harmed while manipulating the fire inside his allies the fire burns brighter than they control and harm them and if he gets harmed while manipulating the fire inside of his enemies the stolen fire returns and heals them.

**Armor of Flames**

Fire harms many creatures Leone is not one of them. Leone brings out the fire within him and covers himself with it this fire burns with excitement for combat, glory, fame, and victory while fighting it protects Leone from enemies but refuses to retreat from any fight. Leone can be forced or force himself to retreat but doing so would force fire to rush into his heart ends up stunning him for a while.

#### The contract & Pacts

* **Kalsovos, The Ambition’s Flame**

*It was time of trial for Leone,* he saw a room with humanoid shaped ashes in it, he walked into the room and immediately got struck with an immense pressure, he faltered and quickly got out of that room.

But again despite the risk he walked back in and saw a crystal in the middle of the room, with each step he took his body got heavier and moving became impossible so he fell to his knees, through pure will power he got up and started walking to the crystal and finally grasped it, the pressure was still there and by going through the same trial he left the room, those couple of minutes felt like eternity.

When he got out Leone looked back to his hand to inspect the crystal but instead there was a mark and as soon as he noticed it, it lit on fire and that fire spread to rest of his body.

Leone was literally burning to death, his allies rushed to his screams and found him on fire, they quickly dosed him with water and covered him in bandages, with that done everything was left to Leone's ability to live.

Some call it talent, some call it luck, and some call it fate, but at the edge of death Leone managed to live. With this horrible experience Leone lost his skin, hair, beauty, and sense of taste but it wasn't all bad.

when he was in fire he met someone, someone who was also on fire and he made a contract with him in return he became immune to fire, he no longer needs to drink and he can eat ash for sustaining his need of food. he was no longer a rouge but a warlock. In return for these abilities he now has to burn a creature worthy of his power every time before he sleeps for a long time.

When the fire inside him gets strong enough his eldritch blasts set the target they hit on fire and start burning them.

**Pact of the Sovereign**

* Leone imagines any weapon he wants and that weapon manifests in his hands. the weapon looks like it is made from pure energy and can look however Leone wants to needless to say most of the time it looks like it is made out of fire. the energy slowly feeds the fire inside Leone as the fire inside Leone gets stronger so does the weapon, but the energy itself is unstable and cannot be separated from Leone if it gets separated from him it tries to rush back inside him and hurts him the damage depends on how strong the weapon got before it was separated.

**Pact of the Torn**

Leone infuses someone with his own fire energy to attack the fire burning in them if he succeeds on doing so the target gets heavily weakened. As the fire within Leone gets stronger he can attack multiple targets at once. targets got weakened can still keep fighting and if all weakened targets beat Leone he gets damage as much as the power he put in attacking.

## Prestige Class- Fire of Service

**Fire of Service**

Any fire damage you deal, deals an additional 2d6 fire damage.

When Marcellus Kingvale was "improving" Leone and his friends instead of modifying his body he fed the fire burning inside Leone making him more powerful and deadly.

## Characteristics

### Personality

Leone is a man who seeks a glorious death because he thinks his first death was not suitable to a warrior.

He was also a gamble addict and enjoys taking risks

He is believes that one never knows that if they like something or not unless they try it, so he is trying to experience new stuff that he didn't in his old life.

he is bisexual and during his life time had relationships with many different race and gender but most of them were not romance related.

he is in a dilemma between gem and Horus right now. at the Horus's side Leone is interested in Horus but he doesn't get any positive feedback from him, at the gem's side he is also interested and also had some kisses from her without asking, so he thinks if he doesn't see any signs of attraction from Horus he will give up on him.

Also he is a Yandere

### Mindset

Lunatic wouldn't be a hard description for Leone when he was on a mission. He would do anything to perfectly complete the mission he was given even if that means doing the most evil things. Yet he believes that no matter what evil you do if you do it for the sake of your job it is not evil. So if you ask him he would say he is Lawful Neutral but he is actually Lawful Evil maybe even Chaotic Evil.

### Fighting Style

Leone is confident on his strong body and prefers to fight in glorious melee combat but after his class change he mostly stays in the middle of the party to utilize his fate thief ability to the most.

his weapon of choice is short swords but if he is making the weapon with the Pact of the Sovereign he creates a whip.

when he is using the invocation armor of flames instead of Fate thief, he takes a more offensive position than before.

## Story

### Previous Life

this is the story that has been revealed so far I will update it if more is revealed.

Leone was a dark elf that lived in Kalkatesh, Country of Orde. he lived as a mercenary and joined a group that later became his family. he did all sorts of jobs and missions. he mostly spent all of his rewards within a week by mostly drinking and gambling. during a mission because of his fault the group got caught by an ambush he did what he can to save his comrades, his family but at the end he was the only survivor with a missing leg which seemed impossible to heal and any prosthetics he tried to use crumbled to dust. after losing everybody and everything he shamefully returned to his old town to a small house with a small land. he lived rest of his life working in the fields and tending to his old weapons. he used to enjoy the process of fixing and cleaning weapons, he acted like they were his own children and look after them nicely but after everything happened tending his weapons was only bringing up old memories and the pain. but still he kept cleaning and maintaining his weapons because he refused to forget what happened to his comrades. he considered them as family when he first lost a friend he kept his long sword with him and whenever he had the chance he killed his enemies with that long sword to honor his friends death. he doesn't remember his death clearly all he remembers is him after a day of work coming back to his house and cleaning his weapons from the dust and sleep while holding his friends long sword. he hates the way he died he thinks the peaceful sleep death was not an acceptable death for a warrior he always waited for some of his old enemies to come back to kill him but non of them did.

### Awakening Arc

leone woke up with a full set of limbs which worked perfectly fine. he believes that this life is a gift to him to live and earn his place in the after life he wants a glorious death but a glorious death requires a glorious life so he will live his life to the most and earn the death he wants. he met a new party in this life which resembled and brought back the memories of his old comrades. He doesn't have his old body and feels very different in this new body almost feels like he is forcefully weakened and he is trying to get stronger and gain his abilities back and maybe get even stronger than his prime.
