A Warlock swears themselves over to a given aspect, and in turn gains additional power. This power comes at the cost of additional work effort. An Aspect's Contract is considered affinity if it's not already. They receive +3 to an Aspect's Contract rolls or a +1 to its effect if their is no roll; They receive +3 to that Aspect's skill. Lastly, to receive the bonus to that Aspect's Contract they must perform the catches of the Contracts, and do not receive the benefit of not paying glamour. | A Warlock swears themselves over to a given aspect, and in turn gains additional power.

History & ThemeNo one knows exactly when the first Warlock of the Praxic Order came about. Rumors persist that it was somewhere in Jerusalem during the second crusade. JoiningJoining typically takes anywhere from a few weeks to several months. A would-be apprentice presents themselves to an existing member with the intent to join, and their studies begin. Their teaching is tied to Clauses and the ephemeral, ontological forces of the worlds. This involves the study of whatever force they connect with, and everything involved in its being. Additionally, they receive knowledge of the Occult save those well versed in matters of the strange already. After however long it takes for them to form, solidify, and enforce that connection they become full members and are no longer considered apprentices. This all culminates in a ceremony steeped in symbolism with any Warlocks in a given region. It's considered rare that a teacher and apprentice swear themselves the same Aspect, but it's not unheard of. Appearance & Mien ChangesThe biggest change to a Warlock is too his soul, and what are the eyes if not the windows to the soul. Their eyes take on a faint, burning glow symbolic of the Aspect they serve. Intricate markings also take shape around the eyes. As they grow in power these markings appear on differing parts of the body; they grow, shift, and change as if reaching to connect to each other. BackgroundThe vast majority of Warlocks come from a philosophical, academic, or studious background. Whether they were professionally educated or not is superfluous, although teachers and professors (both former and present) make up the majority of their numbers. The most common factors are two fold: a want for greater power and a need for a connection to something greater than themselves. OrganizationThe Praxic Order organizes itself by only two labels within the Entitlements. Magus or Enchanter and apprentice. A Magus or Enchanter determines when a changeling an apprentice's study is done, and they're to be raised to a Magus or Enchanter. Magi within the order occasionally meet when there is a shared aspect, but finding two masters with connections to the same aspect is rare. ConceptsChangeling witch doctor, sorcererous warrior, enchanting charlatan PrivilegesEvocation of the Ties That Bind A Warlock swears themselves over to a given aspect, and in turn gains additional power. This power comes at the cost of additional work effort. An Aspect's Contract is considered affinity if it's not already. They receive +3 to an Aspect's Contract rolls or a +1 to its effect if their is no roll; They receive +3 to that Aspect's skill. Lastly, to receive the bonus to that Aspect's Contract they must perform the catches of the Contracts, and do not receive the benefit of not paying glamour.
